My 3D Printer Arrived Yesterday

And what did I have greet meet upon my arrival home from NYC yesterday? My brand new M3D Micro!

It took a little while to set up and I had to back the filament out once to get it to grab hold.

I got it all working, so now I'm going to have it print something. Wish me luck!

A Nosh and a Show

That certainly covers it. I'm not one to post pictures of my meals, but this one's special. I don't often get to have one of my Kosher favorites, but yesterday, before I went to Broadway, I had lunch at Ben's deli on 38th. Beef chopped liver, rich and sweet, on fresh rye. It was delicious and deeply satisfying in a way that's hard for me to understand.




Then off to see "Hand To God" which is about a teenager who's lost his father and is "dealing" with the loss through his possessed (and extremely vulgar) sock puppet. I won't go into details, but suffice it to say that the show was hilarious and serious at the same time. I highly recommend seeing it if you're in town or it tours.



Tomorrow it's back to posts which aren't so much about me. Thanks for watching!

A Day at the Met

I spent yesterday at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I ignored the everything else and went right for the musical instrument collection hoping to see something new to me and about the only thing really interesting was a double manual Bosendorfer piano.

After that it went to to my favorite painting school, the Impressionists. I'll share three of my favorites.



I love Monet's waterlily series.



My daughter started her stage career as a dancer, so Degas' Little Dancer holds special meaning for me.



I've been trying to make it to Chicago to see Seurat's A Sunday on La Grande Jatte for some time, so imagine my delight on finding that the Met had one of the studies.
