Republican Presidential Candidate Debate- Durham, NH

Michele Bachmann was one of the friendliest candidates, even taking time to sign autographs. I like that she told her handlers to hold on a minute so she could speak with fans.

Herman Cain was also extremely nice and friendly.

Why is this picture a little blurry?

Great Question! So I was shooting in a group of other media who were all generally polite. There was some elbowing because the candidates were fast on the move to get in to the debate, and there were secret service and other security pushing you and stuff, but otherwise they were polite. BUT there was one news team from France, and they were not polite. The camera man pushed and shoved, and used his video camera like a club. Thanks a lot France.

Behind Michele is 'failed mall cop'. He was not a cop, nor was he security for Dartmouth college. He took his job too seriously, and was a jerk.

Ron Paul was the fastest candidate to enter the building from his SUV door to venue door.

Just a thought

Dear foreign students,

Hi! My name is Joe, welcome to America. First off there are no judgement calls, I just wanted you to consider some thing with me for a minute. America is a wonderful country because you have the freedom to do many many things. With that freedom, however, comes a certain amount of responsibility.

Crocs are a great invention with a very specific set of circumstances where they are deemed appropriate. Gardening? Day at the Beach? Chef? Easy-maintenance foot wear for 7-year-olds? Sure, all appropriate circumstances for Crocs. Wearing Winnie The Pooh Crocs to class? Maybe not.

side note: Also, capris whoa. They are in the mom section of Wal-mart. Mull that over.

Storm wasn't that bad. So why not have some fun?








To start, I got the day of work off because of the storm so, I can't complain. But really? Shutting down the subway system of New York City ? THE METROPOLIS? Come on it wasn't that bad. I mean shutting down the T in Boston is a joke, it's like hitting the off switch on some dinky kiddy coaster comparatively. But the Subway? Ok ok I get it Bush fucked up Katrina, bad. But do we really need our Presidents to be tough on storms ? Yeah there was some flooding, and it was a little bad in the south, but is it really worth it to scare the Northeast over what turned out to be a glorified rainy day? The T runs in like 2 feet of snow. It wasn't even raining that hard. Oh well, whatever.
