Police Officer With Badge

This police officer rolls up to Sean O'Grady's car and noticing the smashed back window, says "That's about right." Since I'm not that skeptical about the state of DC's 8th and T NW, his meaning was lost on me. So I googled it.

I found this picture, courtesy of thatsaboutright.com:

From the looks of things, these two are rather practiced at squatting on their heels, groping provocatively, and deep tongue kissing for the camera. I am happy to see that chairs are too much of an impediment to their love.

I did not see these two at the scene of the crime, but I can only imagine they ring lead a set of vandals who attack the the 8th and T NW area. The police officer named them immediately, as if to point a finger at a line up or order a sandwich at a shop.

Since the picture downloaded with the name mexico_31.jpeg, I can only imagine this is an old photo from their earlier days as criminals, or this is a current photo and they are celebrating their latest hit in dc on the lam in mexico. Right now.

I also recognize mexico as the only place where two people might find themselves posed in this manner. I am a little bit curious about pictures 1-30, but I am really concerned about 32-beyond.

So googled it.

And found this picture:

Must be the police sketch. Go get 'em district police stars.

Sorry Sean.

Edward Scheinman

My friend Edward Scheinman spent the entire day with the gchat message "Lunch Back Soon." I was immediately confused. So I googled it.

I found this picture:

(lemme see that second hand, partner)

From the look of him, he seems to be a flautist (It. flautista).

Also beautiful (It. bellisimo).

Someone had put Scheinman's words as the title of this picture. I can only imagine the number of courses.

Push Push also mystified me. So I googled it.

Testy Mistress Google came up with this:


A video game called Push Push Penguin. I can only assume the flautist made the music for the video game. I also believe the object of the game was to use the flaut for fallen purposes. Involving pushing. And pushing.

Many of the other google searches referred to people headed out to lunch, people who would be back soon. Scheinman, however, is a music writer for some washington dc paper (fact checker is saying not the washington times) so I am imagining his reference was in fact Herbie Mann. In checking with Scheinman, he said, "No one calls me Teddy."

Thanks, Teddy. And thank you, fact checker.

Nnamdi Nwaneri

My friend Nnamdi Nwaneri posted the comment, "I'm going to name my daughter Jenna Talia," as a gchat away message. I was curious to know why. So I googled it.

Here's the youtube link I found:



That Jenna Talia's name appears in the title leads me to believe that the Full Breasted Italian Woman is not quite as famous.

That it is "II" in the title leads me to believe this is the second time Talia and the Italian have fought in oil, though it is the first time it has been caught on digital and the first time for the world to see on you tube.

That most of the video is shots of crotches or bottoms leads me to believe the cell phone videographer is sexually frustrated.

I do not know if Nnamdi is referencing this exact Jenna Talia. I am afraid I am still missing the reference he is making, or he is saying that he likes this very curious and semi-apparently Italian name, but what I do know is that I have seen oil wrestling on you tube for the first time as a result of a google search. As a result of Nnamdi's away message. God love a culture of oil wrestling on youtube.

We are all sent on pathways one way or another. The root of the pathway is often random, but nonetheless important to the exegesis of the pathway. Important to understanding the pathway as a "pathway," the root as the "root," or place of beginning. Pathway, doorway, arch, threshold, commencement, life.

Nnamdi reached a conclusion regarding this name. I took his conclusion and started my own pathway. Nnamdi's open door.

I have decided to chronicle the root of my pathways on the internet. The posts, the away messages, the tweets, the email references, the things I do not know, the references that must be googled.

Communication is referential. I am just trying to uncover reference points. So I google it.

"The storyteller is the threshold. He must therefore stop and collect himself."
