The monstrous serpent was real!
Did the Gloucester fisherman see a massive tuna, or a serpent? And what are we conjuring, when we imagine the sea?

Origami Nazgul
Designed by Jason Ku, published in Origami Tanteidan Magazine #129. Folded by me from one 12″ uncut sheet of foil paper. Here’s a photo that gives you a better sense of the scale of the model:
This is a great model! Jason Ku designs some amazing origami. His lobster design is so awesome it’s almost NSFW, just because it might literally blow your mind, and your boss doesn’t want to have to call an ambulance when that happens. You can see it on his website. (Go ahead, I dare you! Scroll down on his page to see the detail on the bottom side of the lobster!)

‘Sista Felicia’s’ Sicilian cooking
Gloucester-rooted book is now a series
By Gail McCarthyStaff Writer
Felicia (Ciaramitaro) Mohan grew up in a family surrounded by simmering pots of pasta and bubbling brews of tomato sauce, all created by mothers and grandmothers who never used a recipe.
Their style of cooking, straight from their memory, included a pinch of that ingredient, or a handful of another, and so on.
But two generations later, out of fear of losing these heirloom recipes forever, Mohan — at the urging of her husband Barry — set out to make a cookbook of sorts for her twins, Amanda and BJ. From that seed sprouted her effort to make such a book. But she never imagined that the original scope of the work would grow exponentially.

John Nasser Studding Out In Times Square
Representing in Times Square recently with my new GMG hat.
See that NYPD Cruiser? That is John’s personal police detail to keep the lady folk from attacking him when donning the cap.
I can’t explain the phenomenon, just happens when dude’s put it on. Who am I to question the powers the cap possesses?
Lady killers, monster fishermen, they all know the swagger that comes once it hits your noggin. Straight swagger homie!

Rocky Neck Gallery: Skip Montello & Tom Robinson-Cox
Skip Montello & Tom Robinson-Cox are exhibiting photography at the Rocky Neck Art Gallery starting tomorrow, Wednesday, August 14 for three weeks. But don’t wait, or at least, don’t miss the artist’s reception this Friday from 6-8PM.
Click the Rocky Neck Art Gallery Banner above to go to the Gallery Website for details or the artist’s names to go to their sites.
Fun Fact from the gallery website: You have walked by 55 Rocky Neck a million times but did you ever wonder why the building looked like that? The Answer: Those shingles are Russian stamped steel painted with copper boat bottom paint.
Another Fun Fact: the name of their exhibit is “Ice Cold: Natural Extracts”. Now if you were going to have a reception on a Friday night (6-8PM) in August with a name like that you might expect some nice cold natural extracts, maybe a pitcher of Margaritas or even martinis so cold you have those little flecks of ice floating on top? (Just thinking out loud here.)

Gloucester Stage – ‘This is Our Youth’ ~ Worth Seeing
As Dan Mac Alpine says “The Gloucester Stage Company continues its exploration of youth and coming of age it started in its first production this season, “Spring Awakening,” with the early ‘80s play, “This is Our Youth.”
And like its two predecessors, “Awakening,” and “North Shore Fish,” this production is well worth the audience’s investment.
This is the play “Friends” would have been if it had been reflecting reality, not that “Youth” doesn’t have some funny one liners and, in fact, has the audience laughing through the pain and pathos its three characters negotiate.
Remember Cape Ann Residents are only $20 on Wednesday & Thursday, get your tickets today.
