Justin Casquejo, you rock man! Justin, for those of you unfamiliar with this area's newest folk hero beat the NYPD, the Port Authority rental cops, and two security companies on his trip Sunday up to the top of the spire on the new World Trade Center to you know, just snap some pictures and hang out. Just how did he do it? Read on:
Casquejo allegedly found an opening in the barbed-wire fence that rings the heavily guarded site and then wasn't questioned by a union elevator operator on a 4 a.m. ride to the 88th floor.
Casquejo next walked up a set of stairs to the 104th floor, where he encountered a sleeping security guard..."
There's much more on Justin's trip to the top of the WTC, all which you can find by following this link.

The Eye of Sauron will glower down upon Jersey City tonight
OK, yep, Johnny's a geek. That being said tonight is the night many of us geeky photogs have been waiting for. The beacon and spire high atop the WTC will be tested tonight starting at 5pm. Here's the factoids for when you're reading this on your mobile device sounding smart to your friends while looking up tonight:
The 408-foot structure is assembled with 288 50-watt LED modules, which will enable it to be visible up to 50 miles away.
