Live from London.... IT'S DERELICTE HAT-MAN. Here he comes-- and he's bringin' the beard. PAR-KA. PAR-KA. PAR-KA. I bet the guy who invented fire looked a lot like this: And just because my big round head is too big for just that other thread:

Yep, I took 'em. All except for the last one, where I did a what-the-heck and said, "May I get a photo, too--?", and I sort of, uh, swung on this stumpy, harmless-looking guy in the autograph herd and said, "Would you--? HERE.", and gave him my Leica, and Cillian looked politely concerned and a little alarmed-- as though the guy might bolt-- and mumbled, "That's a good camera--!"-- which it was, and is, and worth every penny (I learned my lesson in Toronto: get something with a buttload of megapixels that's virtually indestructible, idiot- (or me-)proof (take your pick), and [c] able to see in the dark). But the guy really did look harmless, so I thought, if he ran, I'd simply unsling my messenger bag (which at that point weighed about a metric ton) and flatten him with it. And then I'd spend the rest of my trip in jail on assault charges for beaning the guy-- happily, though, 'cause Cillian had shown concern for my nasty-looking black camera and I'd had my arm around his parka. Yay! So there, huh...?

You LUCKY girl!!! I have to say though that his hair looks ridiculously greasy. What is up with that? and also, I have that hat! Woohoo!!!! Cillian and I match! ;D-yea mine is a boy hat, bought at a skater store(I was going through a phase) and it's warm cuz it covers my whole head and the little flip thing at the top is good for when it snows. lol!

Ok, I give up. I have tried to upload 3 pictures but I can't figure out how to do it. They are saved onto my computer. Can someone walk me through it please? Thanks
