Infamous Alley

I was mugged at gunpoint in this Chicago alley almost 6 years ago exactly.

Remind me to tell you how I got away sometime.

Creative Spelling and Lost Dogs

I was going to laugh at the spelling on this sign ...

... but then I thought, "Hey, maybe that's its name - like former California governor Grey Davis."

Grey Pudel.

btw, that's a color photograph taped delicately underneath.

Fonts you should never see on the front page of anything.

USAToday may not be the most illustrious publication, but they should still know better.

Easy rules to follow

The landlord at this establishment is very particular about his annoyances.

Some other rules that are currently in consideration:

"All patrons who wear green shall be removed from the premises."
"No speaking in Tagalog"
"Anyone with an affinity for yodeling will be fined."

As seen in Studio City, CA.

Simple & Mindbending

The wan salmon-colored glow ...

... Of my hotel lobby pairs perfectly with the Cinnamon Stick herbal tea I'm drinking. And by perfectly, I mean fittingly.

Too bad it's not Constant Comment tea or I'd be forced to grow mutton chops and sport a wide tie on principle.

Oddness on the pizza box

The two gentlemen below don't seem to share the same species in common.

I find this unsettling. The pointy-nosed oven lackey seems to be the spawn of the "Spy vs. Spy" characters.

Flippin' hard work

Chopping up a stump on the nearly-vertical hillside. The gardeners have been at it all day long.

It's hard to get a really solid swing when standing on a 75 degree slope on crumbly ground in the sun when you're sweating and tired, but he seems to manage ok. Me? I'd take a swing and go ass over elbow right down onto the bricks.

Fun with tilt-shift

A big ladder truck was forced to back down the street the other day since there's no place to turn around.

I turned it into a toy.
