A Procrastinated Halloween Picture

 


I don’t normally take pictures of people, and I definitely don’t post pictures of people on this blog, because I don’t want to have to deal with indignant people who don’t want their pictures taken. 


But I have to assume that this guy wanted to have his picture taken.


  He was playing heavy metal guitar while wearing a Ghostface mask in a park by the Potomac in Old Town on the Saturday before Halloween. 


  Of course, his vibe is somewhat undercut by the fact that his guitar is pink . . . 


. . . and (for those who know about metal) by the fact that it’s a Strat.

Fetch

 


In honor of the new Mean Girls movie, my browser apparently tried to make fetch happen. 






And, of course, my browser failed.  


(I have to admit that I never saw the original Mean Girls, and thus I am not 100% sure of what “fetch” is, or what would be required to make it happen.)


(I also have to admit that I don’t know very much about computers, as not only do I not understand what a “backend fetch” is, but I also have no idea why the error message involves “guru meditation” and “varnish”.)
