Why taxis and walnuts? After being out late one night, sitting in the cube the next day (in airplane mode) it dawned on me, the perfect fusion between great past times and the never-ending present: Growing up in a walnut orchard, and growing old in taxis. There it is. And if you like walnuts mention so in your email to me. If you need a taxi, good luck in San Francisco, better off in Manhattan. A tip when you forget your wallet in the pub after a lift from the ol' yeller: metro passes, smokes, and a quote from the wise for longevity. Music and film recs are always great exchanges depending on the driver.

And art direction and writing? Taxis are the transporters of ideas. Yellow like a light in the bulb. Rapid and rash - the process of breaking boundaries. Immediate and direct - the goal of communication. Walnuts, the nuts, the brains, brain food, the fuel, fatta the land, bloodflow, the passenger, a drunkard, lost, a seeker, an escapee - once cracked the driver speeds up and suddenly the price of your fare is the sum of your tab from the pub multiplied by the number of pubbing comrades.

Thanks for stopping by. Keep it crackin'
