I know the company is heavily skewed to making Lego Architecture and not landscape but they do produce trees and flora so I’d poke around a toy store to see what turns up.

NYC can be oppressively cold in the wintertime. I also bought an older version of a NYC NFT guide which I remembered absolutely loving, but this was before I purchased a smartphone. I’d also recommend getting a…[Read more]

Since it’s just a search, you’ll probably have to weed through a few that just mention the word ‘homeless,’ but there are some really good projects in there.

For one, I second visiting the outside space next to the aquarium. You should also check out:

I’m still looking, though admittedly not very hard. I looked at the VAIO EC, which looks like a really good laptop. The biggest thing stopping me from getting something like that is the weight….I wanted something with a dedicated graphics card that was also lightweight (< 5 pounds) but of course those get really expensive. I’ll…[Read more]

Small neighborhoods generally have slow-moving, infrequent traffic so I really feel that the danger level is pretty low. And even though I’m in favor of bikes over cars, I know that taking away…[Read more]
