Finally, cK Gets A Palm Pilot!

Palm Zire 71
It all started when I saw my cousin, Jazmine come to work with a new Palm Pilot she received recently as a gift. It was the Palm Zire 71. I was never really into the whole Palm Pilot thing, but I always thought that they were cool. What really caught my attention about this portable device is that its not only a Palm Organizer, but also an MP3 player, and had a camera in it too! Now, I've been looking for a slim digital camera for the longest time, and also an MP3 player as well. If I were to get this, it would be less to carry around and also probably work out cheaper, right? Well the Palm Zire 71 retails for $299.99. I searched all over ebay.com and the palm website to find the cheapest prices. Then after hearing a radio advertisement, I went to this site called Overstock.com. I found the same Palm Pilot for $159.99! The Palm is listed as "blemished". I didn't care...as long as it works! So I placed an order. Shipping only cost $2.95! Can you believe that?? So a week later a box arrives with a free gift included. The Palm Pilot is in amazing condition. I can't believe that its listed as a refurbishment. It works so good that I feel almost as if I got away with something! I had to go and test out my new toy. So with the recent nice temperatures in the weather, I decided to take a walk down Manhattan on a Friday night. I called up my friend, Tracy and we decided to meet up and walk around. I took the subway and surfaced at 42nd / 8th Ave at the Port Authority. The following are some of the pics I took:

I was such a total tourist. Pointing and clicking almost everywhere, trying to capture whatever slice of the Friday night Times Square vibe I could. My friend Tracy was having a ball calling me a tourist. Well, I admit it, I still am a tourist. I think I can live in a place for years and still be a tourist. I just love to explore all that is around me.

Tracy and I end up in the Village around NYU. She wanted to take me to a place called, ASYLUM. That sounds fitting for "CrazyKelvin". I wanted to see what she was so excited about. We arrive there and there is like a $2 cover charge. After Tracy took care of that, we walk in. We see the following sign:
No Dancing Allowed?!?!?!

That's right --- if you can read it, it says: "We Do Not Have A Cabaret License - No Dancing Allowed". I had to get a picture of that! Isn't that crazy? Well, I still went in anyways, and sure enough, I saw some people dancing to the eclectic mix of rock, hip hop, 80's and pop music. We didn't stay there too long. We just wanted to go for a walk and then go home. I had a Samuel Adams while Tracy had a Cosmopolitan. We drank our drinks and jetted outta there. Tracy went back her way... I went back on the subway. Which leads me to the next and final picture:
42nd Street Subway Keyboardist

This lady playing the keyboard in the subway actually had a decent sized audience at 12am! I remember taking my walkman's headphones off just a bit so I can hear what exactly she was playing. I think it was alright. Anyways.. these pics were slices of New York. There will be lots more in the coming weeks as I explore more!
