Images: November 2007 Archives

I work in a complex with many unused rooms. During a recent expansion project, an old bathroom was cracked open and this was found inside:

The bathroom had been converted into a mini sanctuary for Scientology-types to duck into in times of chaos and/or crisis (or so we believe). I didn't get a chance to delve into the dusty tome laid out on the desk, but a like-minded friend snagged it before any of the mildly-insane true believers around these parts were able to. View a less dramatic, more expansive shot of the room (with bonus portrait of L. Ron) by clicking here.

I was reluctant to post this one, it being a pretty grainy crop from an already grainy photo, but something about the one girl's seemingly concerned expression, combined with ... whatever it is the little boy could be doing, made me reconsider.

I leave it to the readers of this website to try and figure out what's going on in this image, because I have no clue. What I do know is that I took it last year, in Dodge City, KS, either the same day or the day after the "Strong City" picture.

Back story: Adriana and I were in Sonoma, CA for part of our honeymoon. A frequent conversational theme of our wedding was taco trucks and the delicious food they spawn, so when we read about a special Jesus taco truck in and around Sonoma, we decided to track it down. I can confirm its existence because I spotted it on the move while I was driving, but sadly, there's no photographic proof. As a sort of consolation prize, however, I'm posting a photo of Jesus truck's market and spiritual rival, the taco truck belonging to the pagan wizard gang known as "Los Magos." Note the artist's depiction of the wizard magically infusing his foodstuffs with indigestion.

Dedicated to the good Dr. Lunch.

My father and I were driving through Kansas last year when I snapped this through the window. I guess it's a good thing we were just passing by, because a "tuffman" I am most certainly not.
