André the Giant reminds me of a time years ago when a certain young lady's favourite film was "The Princess Bride". André played Fezzik.
Vizzini: Finish him. Finish him, your way. Fezzik: Oh good, my way. Thank you ... what's my way? Vizzini: Pick up one of those rocks, get behind a boulder, in a few minutes the man in black will come running around the bend, the minute his head is in view, hit it with the rock. Fezzik: My way's not very sportsman-like.
Oh Dear Elizabeth - I have never heard of either of them! Still, when we visited Trump Tower on 5th Avenue NY last month people actually saw Donald Trump - maybe I did, maybe I didn't because I don't know what he looks like. I must have led a sheltered life (thank goodness). Hope your weather has improved - ours is still patchy.
Shepard Fairey: His Andre Giant poster went international. From there (among other things) to a poster of the Senator from Illinois to The Man in the Whitehouse. OBEY! :-)
Too funny and such perfect New Yawk captures!
