The Museum

So, since I keep mentioning it, I went out of my way to get stuff for the museum this week. I haven't had as much time to work on this part of the site as I thought I would, largely because I went from three times a week to daily inside of a few weeks. Still don't know why I felt the need to do that, I think it's starting to catch up to me already. But, oh well.

I had a different installment of the Museum planned for today, but I didn't shrink the pictures nearly enough, and the files are really too large as they are right now. But lunch is almost over, so I can't really putz with them any more today. So, instead of a lengthy, and as it turns out, redundant, look at the bronze fellows in the 14th Street A/C/E stop, here instead are three random things I saw on 24th Street the other day, the first in the ongoing Five Bucks series, Interesting Things I Have Seen While in New York and Carrying My Camera.

This is a metal door... I took another picture of it, from further away, but the flash glare was awful. There's something very cool about stenciled letters, especially when the 'n' are all backwards, a la Russian.

This is on the side of an animal hospital. Jonah the Cat is memorialized.

As is Puggy the dog. I didn't know Pug dogs existed in 1958. I always thought they were genetically engineered in the late 70s, early 80s. Kudos to the super original name, Puggy. That's really taxing the ol' cranial capacity.
