Panty Sniffers
Glib Gal says: "Love your website. I was in San Juan, Puerto Rico last week and found this gem outside Fuerto El Morro — a famous old fort and part of a National Park — and thought you'd appreciate it. There were several other examples around Old San Juan where someone clearly had panty sniffing on his mind. Keep up the site!"

Vargirl In Paris
Vargirl spent some time in Paris recently. She's a budding Graffiti Paparazzo.
Here's one from the subway.
The next three are from the junkyard and you have to love a photographer that loves junkyards.

The Red Lion
The men's bathroom at The Red Lion in the West Village is a treasure trove of graffiti. Here's a taste. The beer is good, too.

From Russia With Love
Our man in Russia writes:
Here are two more pics from Moscow. The first is of a clothing store that specializes in "American" clothing. Complete with American style grafitti.
The second was by the Battle Of Borodino Panorama museum. This was the battle in 1812 where the Russians fought Napoleon. The museum has a 150 foot panoramic painting showing the battle. Behind the building were a bunch of cannons. Apparently the local Muscovite skaters use it, too.
"skaters ru".

Aloha Means ...
My friend Robin Hansson gives us a taste of the crazy signage in the land of Aloha. You could spend your entire vacation just tripping out on some of the stuff you'd see in Honolulu.

What Would Hurt More?
Taking the claw hammer to the groin or sleeping with the ugly woman?
A hand-painted sign outside a New Orleans business warns away looters in the wake of Hurricane Katrina Thursday, Sept. 1, 2005. Ethicists and social psychologists said in interviews that rules of human behavior — including respect for others' property and for social order itself — dissolve quickly in desperate circumstances like the storm's aftermath.

Motel 6
See the ashtray with the no smoking sign? I think a better solution to the smoking problem at Tuscon's favorite Motel 6 is to JUST NOT HAVE ASHTRAYS.

Veggies
It seems there's a movement against meat in Winston-Salem (and I'm not talking about a bowel movement ... at least not yet). Thanks to Sarah L. for the snap.

Mr. Jinxy in Richmond
Mr. Jinxy strikes again:
"I snapped these pics this afternoon as my wife and I were walking along a pathway behind the Flood Wall on the southside of the James River.
"We climbed to the top of a viewing platform that overlooked both the trains and the river. In the river were three shirtless rednecks casting lines, and underneath the bridge was a homeless guy who had built a fire to cook his catch of the day. The air was humid and pungent with the smoke from his cooking fire.
"Train tracks run parallel to the river on both sides, though the southside is by far the more industrial and dilapidated.
"The plan was to walk across the top of the flood wall, but as we approached the stairs my wife and one of our dogs were dive-bombed by a squadron of angry wasps. Both of them got zapped once each.
"After that we decided to pack it up and go home."

Friends
Deep down, I think you already knew that.
This was spotted at Ray's Famous on the upper West Side in New York City.

Jinxy in NYC
Our man Jinxy was in New York recently. Here's what he had to say:
"The first (above) is outside the Chinese Consulate General on West Side Highway. Yogi was here.
"The second (below) is right around the corner on 42nd Street East. If you look hard enough you can see the Empire State Building in the background."

It's Not Nice to Tease
From our friend Armina, who took this picture in Maribago Bay Beach Resort in Cebu, Philippines last year.
I say this sign only hurts human genetics. Let Darwin work his magic. Tease all the sharks you like, if you think it's a good idea. You'd be doing us all a favor.

Piegon Poop
I'm not sure what a Piegon is but if it is anything like a pigeon you better watch out. This was spotted near downtown Houston.

Houston Blows
From the Latin Leaf: "someone not a houston fan apparently. it reads 'houston, tx' and someone wrote with an arrow 'blows' "
He spotted this in a convenience store in Driscoll, TX.

Man from Bandoo
There once was a man from Bandoo
Who fell asleep in a canoe
He dreamed of Venus
Plyed with his penius
And woke up with a hand full of goo
I took this picture in my living room when the Christina Applegate / Cameron Diaz classic The Sweetest Thing came on TV. Note the Comedy Central logo in the lower right corner.

Silver Markers
Another gem from Mere Existence: "This is in the bathroom of Alt Cafe in the East Village of Manhattan. The wall is marked to shit with writing in silver markers, and this one points that fact out."

Breaking and Entering
This beauty comes to us from Sam, a budding graffiti paparazzo and cat burglar.
He writes: "The gist of the story is that a friend and I broke into the abandoned state asylum in Northampton, MA and did some exploring. It was an amazing and thoroughly frightening adventure. On the way out, I snapped this shot. It reads, 'big scary door.' And conveniently, that's what it is."
You can read all about his adventure and see more cool pictures sambot.com.

Galveston, TX
Go Blue Bird 05
... and how about flushing the toilet next time?
Spotted at Slices in Galveston.
This was in an alley off 21st street near Slices.
The next two were under the piers near Ocean Grill.
It was about 4:20 in the afternoon, which is the favorite time of day for the good folks in Galveston.
