Publisher's Interruption: In response to a branding-conscious reader's concerns, we have now removed from the sidebar all images of people sitting on park benches and reading. Indeed, why should we devote these pages to the life-altering power of walking but then illustrate the points with chubb
y adults sitting on their butts reading Harry Potter? We'll tell you why. People sitting on benches are easier for our editor and writer to draw, but we get the point.Photo at left: What is this? It's a photo I took last fall of a big inflatable rat that the union guys use here to shame abusive capitalist rats. They pointed this rat so as to face the abuser's bedroom window. My publisher just told me that I can no longer draw people sitting down.
I have so much fun in store for you here this weekend that you will end up neglecting the laundry and the dust bunnies living in the corner of your room. I will tease you by posting the following frivolities in any order that I whimsically choose over the course of the next 48 hours, plus maybe a lot more!:
• It's a Teddy Bear's Picnic: Walking The Big Apple visits the Schnabel-designed Gramercy Park Hotel in the company of a trusted and academically accomplished friend.
- Introducing artist Aram Bartholl, with a bonus video!
- How Julian Schnabel literally ate the dictionary
- The Skyscraper Walking Game
