This past weekend, while going through my usual stack of hundreds of pounds of fan mail, I came upon a lovely e-mail from my dear friend Emily, who politely informed me that Banksy, the most famous stenciler/graffiti artist ever, and other not-as-famous stencilers/graffiti artists ( believe it or not, artists 8-BALL and BABYGURL and JESUS SAVES are not household names yet, despite their dedication to the art of graffiti) would all be converting a disgusting London train station into a work of art over the course of the weekend. This, among other reasons, is why Emily is my friend.
I went to the event and it was way cool. The video is kind of long (almost an entire New Pornographer's song) but i think it shows some of the cool stuff on the walls.
Other than that, I don't have much to report. The weather has been amazing all week, and everyone keeps saying to lap it up, because it won't be here long.
I am currently planning a trip in late May to Northern Sweden (like the mutha f'in' Arctic Circle) to see the sun at midnight. As my dear old dad would say, if there's one thing in life that I wish I could do, it would be to see the sun at midnight. That, or take a glass-blowing class. Or read National Geographic. You get the idea.

if there's one thing i could do in life, it would be to make a skateboard out of corks.
awesome! looked like a good time :)
Andrew you have not received any important mail. In fact neither of us has received much mail at all. I did get some netflix today but that's about it. I'll keep a look out though. Thanks for the video!
Thanks B. But you are giving away my secret identity. And now INTERPOL is gonna be hot on my trail. Thanks a lot.

Rosemary, heaven restores you in life (light?)
p.s. Do you have "Made in the Dark" by Hot Chip? If not I am going to send it along with "lojo" (I learned my lesson)
Whoops! I was a little late on this one. I have "The Warning" I think it's called. I love them, by the way.
p.s. The "Rosemary" comment was like 12 metres above my head.
