7. Frank Gehry "look" in home not designed by Frank Gehry
8. Drunken old slut soliciting business from a lawn chair in the front

Excellent list! A bit of a shock to see ol' Benito lookin' jut-jawed and swell in his prime . . . and hard not to imagine that dreadful picture of him hanging by his feet after the Italien opposition got a-holt of him.

As to the fist fight in your previous communique...only our own Pony could make a funny story out of that. Sheesh! I recommend a combination marlin spike and shark billy from Post Marine, so that when such outbreaks flare up you can excuse yourself briefly and go down the street and lay everyone low in jig time, returning to serve cupcakes to the prospective buyer. "Just a jolly spot of bother, and another day in quaint New Roc!" you could say...

Best,
