England 1, USA 1 (??)



Even with Becks on the sideline in a Harry Potter suit, England could not shake the Yanks, who were given the gift of the century by the English keeper (the "Hand of Clod"). Here Jack does his best Becks impression (with completely self styled faux-hawk), saying one goal is all it takes to draw with the Three Lions!

World Cup Fever



With the first ever World Cup in Africa a week away, Jack got his kicks on the fresh turf of Picnic Area Number 5 under the Brooklyn Bridge. He would walk, swing, kick, hit/miss, then fall down and laugh hysterically. Then he'd say "mo!" - which means "more!" You can see the early form for future goal celebrations in photo 3.

Swing with a View



Jack got to help break in the new Brooklyn Bridge Park on Saturday ("Picnic Area Number 5"). Talk about well appointed. Where else can you enjoy a leisurely schwing with a view of the Brooklyn Bridge, Lower Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty - and boats! Note the hallmark crossed legs and balletic finish.

Acoustic or Electric?



Or both! White Jack shows his uncle Alex "Axeman" Epstein he's got early chops by grabbing and working the whammy bar. Later he settled in for more of an unplugged feel, strumming his mom's old guitar (and fiddling with anything that looked like a button). Buh!
