pThis recent "study" is amusing on a number of levels, not the least of which is why someone named Nimrod is researching what's "cool":
It's hip to be square, according to a new study.
Researchers at the University of British Columbia have found that the iconic image of the rebel, embodied by the likes of James Dean and Marlon Brando, is no longer what people identify with the term "cool."
The new cool is a friendly, good-looking, industrious person who dresses well, fits in and is trendy; someone "your mother would want you to be," said Ilan Dar-Nimrod, a researcher on the study.

Pictures of Pictures 5
Took a little road trip last week and this is the first thing I found, in Cle Elum, cropped in to help identify the spot around the corner from here at the Pioneeer Sq. pergola - circa ? An original biker gang that probably bombed around the streets of Seattle endlessly.... leave a comment if you have any thoughts on vintage.

Puyallup
I used to more actively collect snapshots, I found this one recently. It's penciled on the back - Puyallup Fair, Sept 1939 and rubberstamped with a photographer's name and address in Olympia. I've been thinking of posting from my collection, and probably still will... but after recently finding this truly amazing site called Square America... I am sated. For foto junkies such as myself, this is the best and a fascinating collection. A thorough and anonymous visual history, nicely organized. Along with Vintage Pulchritude, I look no further for the love of beautiful old photographs... it's like choice vinyl to the record collector!~

May Day
From the amazingly huge immigration rights demonstration march... the Latinos turn it out in a big way, with a little help from their friends. I shot this for Real Change...
