Is there any message that can’t be improved by the addition of the humble smiley?
Yes. Yes, I think there may be.
On the streets of northwest London, mixed messages abound. And the earthy sensibility I associate with such quintessentially English authors as Geoffrey Chaucer and Samuel Pepys seems still very much in effect.
Less than 100 feet away from this somewhat alarming sign, we noticed a used condom in the grass between a couple of tombstones. I was reminded of the Song of Solomon 8:6: For love is strong as death, jealousy as enduring as the grave…
Top photo is hilarious. Love the condom between collapsing graves, too.
Thanks. I thought of photographing the latter, but it just didn’t seem in good taste, even for me.
