Head of the Meadow Beach

O Pioneers!  A short film chronicling a of Cape Cod beaches on a grey & windy Saturday in early June.  If you like that Romantic tendency to stand on the rocky edge of England and watch waves pound ceaselessly, you might like this.  Includes running, stick-throwing-in-water, a map, reference to a fish.

My Last Name is Volcano

Yesterday Leah and Isaac published their first book, a compilation of the quotes we’ve posted here over the last few months, called My Last Name Is Volcano.  (The title comes from one of the quotes).  Their words are more fun to read in book format.  For more information, visit the publisher’s page:

Magic Isaac and his Magic Towel

We are proud to present by popular demand famous illusionist Magic Isaac performing, for the first time ever, his Magic Towel trick, in which a fleet of automobiles is made to appear and then disappear as if by magic, to thundrous applause.  Rational people, alert, you may after seeing this begin to believe again in the occult, as do we.

Shopping for Glasses

Yesterday Isaac felt like accessorizing in the only really modern way — yes, corrective eye wear — but for cosmetic purposes only, at this point.  Great selection at the eyeglasses store — come along as we scan, select, try out!
