Keeping the photowalk talk flowing

23 March 2006

Looks like DeRusha's been up to his old tricks and is at it yet again, this time setting off a bomb over on MNspeak when he used the words "lap dance", "Margaret", and "photographs" in the same thread. Um, yeah. Allll of a sudden every man within a 20 hour drive is wondering when the next Minneapolis photowalk is gonna be, and if a camera is absolutely, without question, necessary for participation in said event.

Before Hello! magazine gets on the wagon and tries to scoop DeRusha's own scoop, it seemed only fair you find out what's what from the Mistress of Minneapolis Missions herself.

+ Yes, there's going to be another photowalk.

+ No, there won't be any frottage.

+ Yes, there will be cameras involved.

+ No, it won't be sponsored by DeRusha.

+ Yes, this dirty snow thing is old and tired.

+ No, I can't find corporate sponsorship for a European photowalk.

+ Yes, anyone can participate.

+ Well, no you can't participate if you're a stalker or homicidal maniac.

+ I'm tentatively planning for early May.

+ Uptown is a possible destination. Although when polled, 9 out of 10 inquiring minds agreed they don't want to get shot in the head.

+ Location suggestions are welcome.

Stay tuned. I'll post more info both here and in the Twin Cities flickr group when I get around to feeling like it.

If you're doing a lap dance at the next photowalk, then I'm getting on a plane. I will be in New York for a week at the end of May, but sadly nowhere near Minneapolis. I'm such a jet setter these days!

Sorry. I was just trying to be cool by association by mentioning you.

And I only take photos of my son, so if we can prop him up ontop of the Uptown sign, maybe I'll join the photowalk.

Yes, anyone can participate.

Even if they are named Kevin and sport a "Denise" tattoo on their left bicep?

Jason, I'm sure we'll be able to find something vertical to lean Seth up against. And if not? Well you better start crackin' with teaching that whole 'balance' thing to him. He's gonna need it by the time he's 21.

Steve, I'm pretty sure I sported a "No stalkers please" policy in my post. Homicidal maniacs need not apply, too.

Location ideas...
Public Library, State Capital, Greyhound Station, Minneapolis Courthouse (see post on my blog regarding why this would be fun.. http://www.grossmeier.com/r.ashx?9 ) , or M.A.'s apartment (for views of the city of course)

Because I can.
