Every Thursday, there’s a "Farmer’s Market" by the train stop. A handful of stands, including fruit and bread and cheese and whatnot. But this guy has some old knife sharpening machine, and I decided to grab a quick photo. Hard to believe that people once walked the streets, sharpening knives and tools for a living.

This guy was on my coworker Mike’s desk. Some toy that belongs to one of his kids. It’s a sad day when I no longer recognize toys. No clue at all who this is. It’s the same kind of depressing revelation that occurs when you’re at the grocery store and suddenly don’t recognize certain soft drink names.

This is a sign that I’m getting old. I don’t like it.

But then again, look at this doll. I mean, its’ not like He-Man was gonna last forever (what with that hair). But THIS guy? This… cop and railroad crossing action figure? What the hell is wrong with kids today?

What we have here, is failure to communicate… TO THE EXTREME!
