Lee, tongue was firmly in cheek on that one - I halfway expected it to come back photoshopped in some way to deface the kitty! ;D

I'm kind of surprised no one commented on this shot, as I know several of you must live within a few miles of where it was taken:



Is the store in the background, Warren's, still in business? Sure has its name in enough places!

I count two.  Is there more?

Perhaps Warren's is the Starbucks of this era.  Or McDonalds.

ps.  Did you find Waldo?  I did..

The name is there three times, twice horizontally and once vertically, all within ten feet of one another.
