NEW YORK - ZIPCOVERDOSE

I know, we could really do with getting off Ed Zipco's jock for a minute, but tonight he's curating a big group show at the Arm with a bunch of youngish photographic excellents like Jaimie Warren and Brad Troemel. We couldn't very well have just let that happen without saying something, could we? No we could not. Also, we were just downstairs and noticed a weird piece of street art we think by his buddies Darius and Downey right across the street from our office. It's a bunch of disconnected phone receivers nailed to a telephone pole above a pile of fake sawdust. There's a picture of it below.

Hmmm, what else? Oh, Ed stopped by the other day and brought us a bunch of Panafen from New Zealand, which are basically just Tylenol with a teensy little morsel of codeine in them, but we were bored so we looked up one of those ridiculous erowid pill-tampering reciped (this one, in fact) and set up a little Mr. Wizard kit in the bathroom to suck out all the good stuff—very high school vibes, yes, we realize—and it actually worked and got us pretty nicely stoned right at quittin' time, so, just keep that in mind or something, or, I don't know, you could try bugging him for pills tonight. Or don't. Yeah, actually that's probably a really bad idea. Forget we said it. Anyways, off his jock now…
