Soundtrack: Trip LIke I Do

On the iPod right now: Trip Like I Do | Crystal Method/Filter

Flashback 1997: Lower Manhattan. Little Italy & Chinatown. Walking through a street festival listening to Crystal Method/Filter's Trip Like I Do on my CD Walkman. Right now, today, I feel line every line of that song. Every line rings true. So, I went and fished the song out of my iPod and am listening to it right now.

Small detail: I also remember walking through a crowd of cops while wearing an NYPD hat. One thick accented patrolman looked over and said "nice hat" with a hint of annoyance. At that point, you couldn't buy a New York Police hat in every stall and bootleg shop on Canal Street. I got it through a convoluted set of back channels and wore it with extreme irony with a nod toward one of NWA's most famous singles.

Delivery Bike

Delivery Bike
Somewhere in the East Village
New York City

I love discovering the strange cycling mutations of New York City messengers and delivery people. Equally impressive are the nerves of steel required to thread one of these frankenbikes through the rush hour traffic around Chinatown, risking life and limb, just to deliver hot Kung Pow chicken.
