Google Street View Car

IMAG0065

Second sighting within a year (the first one -- which may or may not have been a different car, as the camera ball was clearly different -- was on July 22, 2011).

In the time I spent in the Bay Area, I never ONCE saw the darn thing, but I move to Oklahoma City and they're around every corner.

DSC_0026 One widely held belief is that his bodyguards really killed him when Dr. Weiss pulled the gun. See this link for more details about the man. His burial site is in front of the new State Capitol building: DSC_0007

Baton Rouge Trip -- Mardi Gras leftovers

I was in Baton Rouge a week after Mardi Gras, but the detritus from that fete was still all around:
