Photo and video rules at Clinton Library

Visited the Clinton Presidential Library (my photos) and saw this right when you pass through security. Very specific and helpful

Mariah Midler

I was in Las Vegas for four hours, walking around snapping photos, when I came cross this poster for Bette Midler's live show, The Showgirl Must Go On. Same pose, same feathery object and same supposed nudity... as in the photos for Mariah's new album "E=MC2." Which came first? Anyone know?

Photos: Madison, Wisconsin

I discovered the Willy Street area of Madison, Wisconsin while wandering around today. It's a walkable, quiet, friendly street with pretty old houses, big trees and several locally-owned businesses including a grocery store co-op a few coffee shops, a pizza/ice cream restaurant and a store that sold just 'zines called the "Madison Info Shop."

The Info Shop was my favorite place because every single thing being sold in that store (mostel 'zines) was made by an individual or group...not a company. So refreshing. I never see tangible media made by nobodies displayed in a store.

I'm only displaying a few photos here on this post. If you want to see all 145 photos go to my Madison Flickr Set.
