NYC MoMa

Wazzup peoples!  I got more stuff!

We went to my one of my favorite places to go to.... MOMA!


I am down with the Van Gogh because he's the kind of crazy that intrigues me!

Check out the Starry Night!

Olive Trees

The Postman

Melted Butter by Lichtenstein.

Yup, they have cars in the Museum!  This one is  1961 Jaguar E-Type.  

The fastest production at the time.

NYC 2016 Part 1 of

Yes, It's been a while.  I know.  I should have written something, ANYTHING by now, but WTF.  So I am going to ramble a bit more then start out with the BLOG.  So here we go.  Onwards and Upwards!!

So finally I had the opportunity to go to NYC and see how the other half live.  No really, I love going to NYC.  This time, the weather was a bit warm, it sprinkled a bit, but there was no humidity afterwards.  Pretty neat.  We took a redeye from Burbank to NYC and I have to admit that this was the nicest airport experience ever.

OK so we stayed in the Chelsea district.  I love chillin on the High Line park.

There is a part of Chelsea where there is a flower district.  They have plants everywhere on the sidewalks and the street.  This is like the LA flower mart but on crack and with less homeless people (sorry)

Here is the rooftop bar.  Pretty neat with a view of the new Freedom Tower.  

So first up you gotta do in NYC is...EAT!  

One of my favorite spots is Balthazar's

http://www.balthazarny.com/

Its a French Bakery and Restaurant!!

I saw this while going to Balthazar's.  It looks like a Jenga building. So yea.. Balthazars....

We went there for lunch and first up with the ceviche.  It had fucking lobster in it.  Goddamn

Next up was the Steak Frites! 

This cow was a happy cow.  These photos were taken a month ago and still make my mouth water!!

So from there, we had to shop!

I saw this on the door and have never seen anything like it.  It's sad that people don't get it and we have to make these kind of laws, but wtf.  

So we are on our way back to the hotel and decided to check out the Nespresso store thinking that they would have good coffee.

Turns out, all they have are shots.  No Lattes, no Cappuccinos, none of that shenanigans. Just sell only those goddamn cups that pollute the environment. Thanks.

Here is a cool pic I took of the Empire State Building.

Picana Lays.  Not bad.  I would say one of the better flavors.

DeLorean at Design Con in Pasadena Nov 2015

Yes, I know,  we are in 2016, in February at that, but I just found these pictures on my old phone.  So here we go.

I was driving along off Green Street in Pasadena on a Saturday and noted a DeLorean!  Not just any DeLorean, but a fully restored one like the movie Back to the Future.

Side view

People were crowded around the time machine.

Wires everywhere!

They faithfully reproduced the interior.  Immaculate.

You can see the flux capacitor, not fluxing.

For this car being 30 years old, it still looks futuristic.

235/60 R15 Goodyear Eagle ST.

Apparently the car leaks oil....  

Filming in Downtown?

So I was at my work in Downtown Los Angeles and saw this Mercedes that they used to film high speed chases.  I have seen lots of chase scenes done with this exact kind of AMG Mercedes.

There was actually a Police escort with 2 motorcycles cops.

And then I saw this which really creeped me out. 

I got super close and still couldn't see inside.

How the fuck can they see out of it?

Kind of reminds me of the burkas that Muslims wear.

The car is actually a Hyundai.  

You can see the police at the front of the caravan.

Here is the support vehicle with the film crew.  Note the front passenger.

I see you!

He was not enthusiastic about me taking pictures, and actually yelled at me.

2017 Lexus LC350

I saw a pair of these cars on the 210 freeway.  Usually they have several cars following them with a support team with big antennas.  This one I believe is the Lexus LC Coupe.

Here is the second one.

This is to compete with the 6 Series BMW Coupe..etc.

Very non- descript.

I had to use the selfie mode on my camera for this shot.

Kinda looks like the spindle- Darth Vador grille.
