    It doesn’t…quite…look like him, but then again, after a while he didn’t seem to look like himself either.

    I saw this over the weekend, but your photo is better than the blurry one I took in the dark at night… thanks, Will!

    Sadly this covered up a nice textural mural. A nice addition to the neighborhood though. My friend thinks it looks like Sigourney Weaver.
