Does this crack anyone else up?

i know, i know. just got back from a trip to los angeles and THIS is what i choose to blog about? well sometimes pictures win out over subject matter. i was walking home from work yesterday, waiting on the corner of broadway and higgins to cross the street when i spotted this. i don't know if you can tell from the picture but this is a cardboard cut-out of the owner of instyprints (right? missoulians help me out). i know you've seen his award-winning commercials. but what's creepy (or should i say creepiEST?) is that it's about a three-quarters-size cutout, which is always creepy. i can't exactly put my finger on why it is. maybe it goes back to the terror that people in period costumes bring. history is scary and it seems like all people from history were small. we know napoleon was, i picture pushkin to have been...well, another contributing factor to this (yet another) neurosis of mine may have been the time i saw prince's purple rain costume in a display case in the hardrock cafe in nyc. he is, apparently, the size of this cut-out. uhhh, shudder.
