While We're on the Subject of Gifts...

Note the look of determination on his face. Next stop, dancing with the stars...

The Luke Dance Marathon, Part I

We've been having fun with old videos, as you can see...

"Go on, please. I always yawn when I'm interested..."

Sailing, Part II

The journey continues...

We are sailing in the water.

Enough about the baby...

Let's talk about me. And the piece I had in today's Wall Street Journal:

Nothing Personal, But This Is Not Philosophy

Enjoy.

Luke, James and Allie have a cousin!

Lucy Carney was born to Uncle Timmy and Aunt Katie on November 30, 2006. She say's that she's very excited to meet her older cousins come Christmas.

Guess who?

Remembering

Lukecarney.com Goes Youtube!

At last, some pictures from Susie and Todd's wedding.

Luke & James in Yankee Stadium

Thanks to Grandpa, we had pretty good seats. The camera, unfortunately, was my phone.

Oops.

I guess that picture came in sideways. Still working out the kinks here at Carney blogging central.

This is a test.

Testing out a new mobile-blogging trick.

Sample print

Unfortunately, the picture of the print was taken with my phone. But it gives a rough idea.

Prints

I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but most of the pictures on this site can be ordered from Fotki, our photo-hosting site, just by clicking on the picture and following the prompts on the right. I've used them myself, and the results are very good. I'll try to put up a post in a minute of a 20"x30" print I did of the New York skyline from the top of Rockefeller Center.

Under the Tuscan Sun

We attended the wedding of our friends Tony and Carrie in Tuscany, near Florence, Italy, in July. James was a ring-bearer in the ceremony. Here are some of the pictures from the wedding. Click through for the whole album, including some pictures of Florence and the Tuscan countryside.

Some pictures from our recent trip through Italy. We passed through Florence, Rome, Venice and Ravenna on our travels.

Allie plays hard to get.

A picture from Izzy

It dates back to Christmas time, but Izzy just sent it over this weekend.

Speaking of Italy...

As Webmaster Sam alluded to below, we'll be in Italy starting next Saturday for a couple of weeks. I'd mention that this meant that the frequency of posts could be expected to decline, but, well, that seems superfluous at the moment...

More Self-Promotion...

I know I'm probably crowding out more-valuable posts with these, but here we go again.

Read my whimsical interview with Craigslist CEO Jim Buckmaster here. Enjoy!

Luke (and His Dad) in the Paper Today

Here's an article I wrote about Luke and me.

United 93

Sam and I saw United 93 last night. It's hard to "recommend" it, in that it is not what I would call a pleasant experience. But it is a powerful, well-made and worth-while film, in my view.

Here is something I wrote about Flight 93 back in September, 2001.

And here is my brother's review of the film.

April Is Bluebell Season...

Candids

There's a lot going on in this pic...Brian's busy talking, Allie wants his cake, Susie's actually paying attention, and Todd's striking some pose.

One of the last songs, New York New York, what a Chorus line! What a wedding!

Shameless Self-Promotion

This is only tangentially child-related, but here is a link to a piece by me in today's Wall Street Journal about New York real estate. Enjoy.


Here is the item about my story on the real-estate blog Curbed, which is mentioned in the piece.

For a taste of the building I wrote about, check out their web site.

Finally a photo from Timmy and Katie's wedding!

More to come. But for starters:
