Photography...........the way I see it (Moderated by BLeafe) / Re: Photography...........the way I see it

Tonight's storm knocked out power in my neighborhood just after 8pm for a little over an hour.

In the first picture, you can see darkness west of Main. The Middle School was out, as were the churches around me and the E lot, which is most of this picture.

Since a dark apartment kinda sucks for photo subjects, I opened my front door and saw unusual shadows (picture 2) coming up from the floor below me and from my own floor. Then I noticed what appeared to be a bloody ceiling (picture 3) - all courtesy of the hallways' evil emergency backup lights (picture 4).

The second I shut the door, the lights came back on.

The last day.

I thought it would be totally deserted, but there were more people there today than any of the other days I went. Maybe it just seemed that way because all the aisles were closed off and what little was left was put up front, so the masses were kinda corralled.

Lotta cart use. Some people appeared to buy a bunch of stuff, but I don't know what.............dust bunnies? Skeletal remains?

Doesn't matter now - it's history.

1. People-watching

2. Where's a meter maid when you need one?

3. Korebrew? (Korean & Hebrew?). Had I had been walking in the other direction, I might have thought that it was an LL Cool J bingo card.

4. 1/99 (think Nena in 1984 )

"Dr. Quack from North Hackensack"? That would require a change in title, lyrics, and songbooks - not to mention major hassles with ASCAP.

I hear he's deciding between the Circle Brake property, so he can be near the trolley yard and the black rhino OR Holy Trinity School, so he can nearer to Bruce Almighty.

Had to go to the bank, so I took one last walk around Pathmorgue.

1. You can buy nothing for a dollar

2. Can't Buy Me Love? Not at Pathmark

3. They still have meat (would you want it?)...........

4. ....but no bread to put it on

5. Need store freezers, slicers, and the kitchen sink?

OK, just heard back from the seller and - except for a non-rhyming chorus - the lyrics are pretty interesting (and larger this time). He's also added a Buy It Now option to the auction in case anyone wants to grab the songbook right away.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ca-1880s-Happy-Billy-Radcliffes-Songster-Song-Book-/310310703702?pt=Antiquarian_Collectible&hash=item483ff59256

Description:

Vintage circa 1880s songster with many of Billy Radcliffe's songs. Includes titles : HOW COME DOT BABY CROSS-EYED; WIDOW DUNN; HUMP BACK MULE; PATSY, MIND THE BABY; DOCTOR QUACK FROM HACKENSACK; and other 1880s hits. Some have the music but most have just the lyrics. Softcover. 24 unnumbered pages. Excellent condition. Measures 4"x6".



Seller originally only had a small cover shot posted. Since I can find no lyrics or even a reference for "Dr. Quack from Hackensack", I asked the seller to post the lyrics and to please use larger pictures.

He added a lyrics image, but said that eBay restricted the size of the images (?), so it's too small to read.

I've since asked if he would email me a larger scan of the lyrics and I'm waiting for a reply.

These signs are perfectly readable if you're already on the lot somewhere between these cars and the back end of the building:
