Name: James Walker

Age: 26

Hometown: Midland Park, New Jersey

Responds to: James, Jim, Jimbo, Big Money, Buffalo Boy

Allergies: Hay, shit like that

Self-portrait, below. During his time in the Jersey Highlands, Jim studied white-tailed deer and drank whiskey. In a small steno pad he recorded his observations of the wildlife, as well as documentation of his shelter and surroundings. This self-portrait was created one night while he drank whiskey and watched Bambi. They say that life imitates art, and in this case, Jim’s art imitated the life he lived alone in the woods.

What kind of tree is this?

take a whiff

There are a bunch of these trees blooming around campus. These, photographed above are near park, but there are also some near public safety and throughout town.

Slut Day welcomed in spring and the blooming of these warm-weather plants reassured us of the onset of the season.

My research leads me to believe that this is the Halesia diptera, more commonly known as the American snowdrop tree. Not to beat around the bush, (or to beat around the bush -or tree-) this tree smells like semen. It’s in the air, it’s all around us – it’s almost as bad as the water in Los Angeles.

But the forsythia are in bloom(there’s a great one behind Bogart) and those pink trees – whatever they are – are rampant. Check them out Hudson Street.

Spring has sprung and so have the buds on the American snowdrops.
