Things You See When You Haven't Got Your Gun

Here are some things I would have taken pictures of, had I a camera, and would have uploaded by now had that camera been digital:

• Every sign in Elmira, NY that E and I drove past that had any reference to Mark Twain.
  
• The two front lawns we drove past that had deflated Christmas balloon-figures. It was a pretty ghastly looking scene.
  
• That demonic "scary tire guy" that's on a sign a little ways south of the Harvard Rd. exit of I-271 -- E, if you read this, leave a comment and remind me exactly what this is.
  
• My brand new pair of kamagong escrima sticks - now considered among my "Most Valued Material Possessions."
