The one on the right looks like a young, impish Sir Ian McKellen.
I'd probably take up smoking if cute little kids dressed like that stood outside my house and sold cigarettes.
what's wrong with me that i started singing
"step one: cut a hole in the box..."
oh the street urchins here in India sell cigs and chai masala (spiced tea). Don't ask me why but one night very late I was out underneath an overpass and bought a lovely hot cup of tea from a street urchin. I should get some pictures sometime, I think you would appreciate them!
pnuts mom---you have absolutely just made my afternoon. I just laughed way too loud to be considered office friendly. Thank you for making this awful afternoon so much better.
i dunno. i'm calling you out. i feel like we've seen these 2 cats before.
no way! I have never even dipped into my "peddler" urchin archives until today; and I still have a whole folder of shoeshine urchins.
SHOESHINE URCHINS!!!!! This may sound REALLY weird, but I love getting my shoes shined. Just an oddity like people who dig carnies or are suckered into eating every corndog they come across. If I am ever at the airport alone, and I'm wearing leather shoes, I always get them shined. I have a shoeshine kit. I'm a 37 year old woman, and I've had my kit since I was about 19, when I moved away from home. I have two tins of kiwi polish (black and brown of course), old pieces of rag to apply with, a buffer brush, a bottle of leather cleaner/moisturizer, and a final buffing rag. All in a "Walkers Shortbread" tin. When I open it up to shine my or my husband's shoes, I take a big whiff and just let it sit there a moment before I begin.
PLEASE share the shoeshine guys!
those damn charming urchins, proffering smokes. great shot.
I am not stalking you, I swear, but I think I saw you and Juniper in Eastern Market today. You were standing outside of one of the stores on Russell, and swinging Juniper in your arms...
I said, "Oh my God, it's the Junipers!!", and my husband said that he need to limit my internet time.
nice to find your blog, love it!
