Beth Costanzo and Kids Unlimited are holding a Benefit for the Sawyer Free Library’s Childrens’ Room

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey,

Beth Costanzo and Kids Unlimited are holding a Benefit for the Sawyer Free Library’s Childrens’ Room. I am hoping you will post this poster as often as possible.

This is a benefit, therefore Beth and myself will not be profiting from this event. We could really use your help promoting this event. All proceeds from the event will go directly to the Library and 20% of Kids Unlimited’s gross sales during the event will also be donated. The poster is self explanitory, with other things being added each day. We hope to make this a WOW day for all the Kids.Thanks as always for your help.

Hi All,

I am also available to show the studio by appointment. Please forward this to anyone you think may be interested in seeing my past six years of work from Montserrat.

Thanks!

Phi Kappa Sigma Back Again For Lobster Rush Week

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Its gotta be a dozen or more years running the men from Phi Kappa Sigma come down to Captain Joe’s for Rush week lobsters.

Tradition. Gotta love it!
If you’re a prospective pledge and you don’t go with PHI KAPPA SIGMA you really need to reevaluate your whole college existence.
Just drop out and become a garbage man already because you’re not college material.
Here they are back in 2008-

Rush Phi Kappa Sigma At MIT!

The boys from Phi Kappa Sigma at MIT come every year for rush week to pick up a ton of lobsters to serve prospective rushees.

I thought MIT was primarily an engineering school but apparently they have their marketing down pretty good too!

Out of a thousand.

I knew I shoulda got the linguica steak bomb.
Dang it!

Update:
Ate half of the other half of the sub because I was starving and somehow or other it got even more sucky.

Terrible Terrible Decision on my part. Just terrible!

Dear Joey,
A good friend of Gloucester and Good Morning suggested I send my poem to you.
My best,
BZ Niditch

GOOD HARBOR

On full high tide
ocean voices
in a slight breeze
are never forgotten
by slanting shadows
splashing the tides
of childhood memory
breathing in the sea
by hand fulls of waves
near sand castles
on dawn blankets
of a consumed sun,
never too late for a swim
one more time.

Our Tony Gross Putting On A Photobombing Clinic At Schoonerfest

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

 

Here’s our Tony putting on a photo bombing clinic right here.

See?  This is how you run for School Committee!

Publicity city baby.  Flat out owning the focus of this picture.  Can’t take your eyes off Tony’s commanding presence.

He’s a photobombing monster, an absolute monster.

I’d say Tony’s photo is about a hundred times more effective campaign-wise than our super good buddy Hannah Kimberley who couldn’t possibly have read my  January 21, 2012 post on portrait taking-

Who makes someone pose like this?

Posted on January 21, 2012 by

Otherwise this never would have happened-

Hannah you straight up have my personal permission to kick Craig straight away in the nuts.  When he asks you why you did that, show him this post

This is how I picture Hannah- with that warm smile-

That’s like best time of your life shit, DONT go mess it up.

Pigeon Cove, "Maine?"

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Fred Bodin submits-

HBO Filming in Pigeon Cove, “Maine?”

As I was driving to work this morning, I saw major activity at the old Cape Ann Tool Company site in Rockport (MA). Then I saw the lighting truck, then the big equipment truck, and the Rockport Police facilitating traffic on Route 127. The shed that was built on the parking lot and the big cherry pickers, which I thought were for construction of the new development, were there for a movie production.

The HBO series will be called Maine Men, and looks to include lobstering. And no, that’s not George Bush’s black speedboat on the left.The cute little shack they built says: Pigeon Cove. I could live there!
