On the Brain...

Last year in Dallas a friend was giving me a lift back to the hotel in her truck, a Shelby'ed-out Raptor with scoops and vents and flares and enough horsepower to light Times Square on New Year's Eve. 

She booted it down the interstate for an eyeball-flattening bit of yeehaw!, but that wasn't the most memorable part of the drive. Instead of remembering that wholesome display of ludicrous torque, what sticks with me is the sticker in the back window of the pickup truck ahead of us at the top of the off-ramp.

I had to photograph it.


Folks, this guy spends entirely too much time thinking about two things: perversion and violence. That ain't healthy.

That's the thing with all the constant talk about pedos and woodchippers. It all reminds me of a passage from P.J. O'Rourke's book All the Trouble in the World, when he was visiting his old alma mater, Miami University.
