Bodhisattva will surely take *me* by the hand too!

Meanwhile, I can only talk of independent co-arisings,
as the following, quite Merlesque/Roswellian bit:

"Then she [Ella Milana] developed an idea about a
camera that would record not only a momentary flash
of a person but his whole temporal being: *Could you
turn a little so your childhood will show too, now
your middle age is blocking the way...*"
(From Pasi Jaaskelainen's [umlauts on the a's] novel
_Lumikko ja yhdeksa"n muuta_. P. 291. Trans. mine.
Publ. 8/2006 by Atena Kustannus, Jyvaskyla. Cutish
magical realism so common in Europe today - his
short stories are much more interesting.)

Which reminds me of the fact that I need a new camera.
A more modest one than those referred to above, but
a good digital camera nevertheless. Does anyone know
of decent and cheap camera outlets in NYC?

[My chorus and I will arrive at Newark airport around
1 pm on Saturday, Sep 13 and transfer to a hotel next
to Macy's. Handy... Gigs: Sunday at MoMA, Monday at
P.S.1. Tuesday and Wednesday in DC (once or twice at
the Finnish Embassy + surprise performances). Welcome!
Back to Finland on Thursday.]

Would love to take pics of as many p-list members as
possible. Or just take with you. But where?
