Those are really cool. The first few look almost like a Hollywood street scene.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

What is up with the random photo of people dressed like Gauls?

Wow, they look very realistic.

:glare:

I said that because I thought it was so strange that there were so few people. The impression was one of not a real street, at all, but rather an old Hollywood lot.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

"If you can play a guitar and harmonica at the same time, like Bob Dylan or Neil Young, you're a genius. But make that extra bit of effort and strap some cymbals to your knees, suddenly people want to get the hell away from you."  --Rich Hall

It is actually right next to the second picture. The house has obviously been demolished, but you can make out the apparent stones and brown brick of the side of the building located on the left hand side of the picture.

Que le grand cric me croque !

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
