filling in clever titles is always the hardest part.
in eighth grade, i dated this little dude who was born on december 8. and i was also the hugest beatles fan. in the same way friends my age were into NKOTB etc etc. i had posters everywhere, the beatles box-set on tape, listened to the vinyl records ('cause i didn't have a cd player like my friends did), the full bit. 'yesterday and today' was my favorite album. anyway, i always felt sorry for the guy because his birthday was the same day john lennon was shot. 'whata freakin' bummer!' i would think.
in other news, this book looks amazing. self-published by california photographer peter menzel, Hungry Planet explores what the world eats and shows photographs of a week's worth of food for a multitude of cultures around the world. from bhutan to california. very cool. and kinda shocking.
