Week-04,05
Week four didn't seem to have much going on other than a lot of
computer foolishness, so I'm just going to lump it in with week 5.
Something racy for openers?
Last summer I started watching 'The Simpson's' on DVD from the library
and enjoyed the art and creativity. So few characters and such variety
in plots from week to week. Several years ago I also enjoyed the
creativity of 'Who shot Roger Rabbit' and fell for Roger's slinky
animated wife
Jessica. So you can imagine my horror at seeing this decal in the back
window of a local VW.
What a travesty !

As I may have mentioned, 5th is a 'pedestrian only' shopping avenue and
a
popular strand to stroll down in the evenings, meeting friends and
'people
watching'. One evening last week there were a troop of costumed stilt
walkers to catch the eye and a Peso or two.

These third world countries are so backward. Just look at what they
consider an economy car here. (For your information this is a
Smart Car and is all the rage in Europe)

There is a local coffee shop called the Coffee Press where we sometimes
meet. There is a an iron rod sculpture out front,
of a waiter holding a tray. One of the guys asked to see my camera and
caught me at one of my few saintly moments. =)

Finally, the HPVA guys get a bicycle picture, and it's been so long
since the last one, lets make it a 'double'. This is a home made tandem
made out of two single bicycles with a place for Jr. to sit.

My pal Richard just could not get used to having no seat on his toilet
so
we went out to a big building supply outfit by the highway to shop for
one. While
he was
negotiating on the new seat I went across the road to the Ford dealer
and
got one of their 'dealer stickers' to put on the back of my new Pickup,
back
home (new to me, thanks to Travis & Jessie in Glencoe).


With two weeks lumped in together lets move on to page 'b'.
