   Hey kids, you know what today is? That's right, Fun Foto Friday! I know you've probably had your fill of spandex-wrapped web-slingers, street closures, and NYC squad cars blowing up everywhere. But I just wanted to post some of my pics from the last couple days of Spider-Man filming. And I'd like to see yours too. If you were able to slip past the barricades and snag a few good shots, go ahead and post a link in the comments section...

   Spider-Man spent most of the day yesterday riding up and down Main Street and East Ave. on top of a this cop car.

   If you got to see any of the filming yourself, this is what you might have seen. A lot of waiting around... then a hundred cop cars driving for about five seconds... then they throw it reverse and set up for the same shot again... and again... and again.

   Lots of people stuck it out just to catch a glimpse of some kind of action.

   I found a nice viewing spot in the Hyatt Hotel's parking ramp.

   I let him borrow my wind-breaker. He's from out of town.

   I want one of those.

Admittedly my photos aren't very exciting. If you're hankering for explosions and blazing guns, there's a lot more action in     these videos

Well that was fun. But it'll be nice to have normal back.
