The Best Hospital Ever
A few weeks ago, I was scouting a long defunct hospital when I noticed a whiteboard that still had doctors’ names written on it. It’s pretty common to find interesting bits and pieces like this in old hospitals, left over from when they were in operation. Then I looked at it a little closer –…
NM to TX: White Sands, Rockets, Visiting A True Ghost Town, & A Very Special Grave
It’s pretty amazing to be driving along seeing this out the window… …then taking a slight detour and finding yourself in a drastically different world: When we left Las Cruces, our goal was to make it to San Antonio by the end of the day. We had two routes to choose from: the southern route…

Queens House Attempts To Be Made Of Every Type of Building Material Known To Man
I noticed the side of this house while scouting a neighborhood in Queens and was quite impressed. I see shingles, stone, concrete, brick, aluminum-siding, and two types of what I think is asphalt siding. Add some stucco and a few clapboards, and I think we have a Guinness record contender here. -SCOUT

Wait, is that math right?
Ha, check the sidebar for the break down.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, too, Nick–and to Lulu, too. And thanks for all the pleasure your blog brings me all year long!
As one of my earliest readers, means a ton you’ve been reading for so long. Thank you!
You keep putting up such great content, and I’ll keep reading! AND bringing along my friends.
Merry Christmas Nick! Always enjoy your site. I’ve sent you a few bucks and received a neat acknowledgement. Seeing the video, you
should consider being in a movie or two. Lulu looks like a happy pup
but I can see she doesn’t talk, unlike my dog, Sophia. 🙂

Thank you as always!
Fundraising= distasteful.
Ha, wait, why? Each post takes on average three hours minimum to put together, usually more for research and travel. Assuming three hour average times 125 posts last year, that’s 375 hours that could have been spent on forwarding my film career…and I feel that’s low. I started the donation system cause it meant that my site somehow tied in with my ambitions to become a director, and that those hours weren’t just being spent on a hobby. Makes sense to me – and my readers don’t seem to mind. In fact, the only people who have been weird about it are other NYC bloggers.
Pay no attention to the haters. I get way more value out of this site than pretty much any site that costs money – throwing a few dollars in your pocket is more than worth it.
It’s like a PBS fund drive; the folks who want to watch for free can still do so, but for the rest of us it’s an opportunity to say thank you. Not like you’re forcing anyone to pay up. 🙂
It’s been a pleasure donating for your film. I wish I could donate more, not only for the film, but in agreement for this wonderful site that makes me dream everyday. So keep the good work up, enjoy life and have a nice Thanksgiving!
PS. You look very pleasant! Thanks for the vid.
Thank you sir!
Yea, you’re right, I’m wrong. You do fantastic work on this site. Mea Culpa! Your movie should be tops.
