It’s been a busy few months here at One Registan.net Plaza, and I must be off for a while. After about ten weeks of rarely getting much further south than NE Pacific Street and no further north than NE 135th Street (the E & W are even more restrictive…), I’m getting away for a while. Though I’ll occasionally be in Seattle, I will pretty much be incommunicado, and certainly won’t be posting anything here until March 27th at the earliest. Perhaps other occasional posters will keep the place somewhat warm in my absence, but perhaps not. What web activity I have will probably be entirely turned here–I have a new toy and plan to take it some neat places.
But before I go, what kind of host would I be without pointing out some news of the weird?
Or these pictures from fashion week in Bishkek (featuring the very artful use of feathers)? (via Tatyana)

Actually having ‘He is guilty’ on anyones headstone would interesting and thought provoking. In a way aren’t we all guilty?
If you had an entire blog of fashion photos, I’d be a devotee. Thanks for the laughs.
