THE PBR YARMULKE
I recently met a gentleman with a rather unique feature. He wasn't bald, but his closely-cropped hair revealed what I originally thought from the corner of my eye was a yarmulke or skullcap. Upon closer, covert inspection, I realized that it was in fact a large tattoo that covered the entire top of his head. Prominently centered on his crown was the Pabst Blue Ribbon beer logo. The "lines" around his cranial circumference were the tattooed edges of a bottlecap. The cumulative effect was the appearance of a human beer bottle. I must admit a certain admiration for the dedication to a specific alcoholic beverage that would inspire someone to such a display. Not something I would ever consider, but... Godspeed, PBR Man.

The Golden AN



This was a Sesame Street bit I vividly remember from 30 years ago...for some reason.

Happy Elephant

This is a "found object" that I discovered seven years ago while cleaning out the contents of a study carrel at the UGA library. It was included in a box of other photos taken by a grad student from Taiwan. He had left in 1995, and never came back.
