Sketching passerbys from a picture window at Starbucks in center city. I’d forgotten how crazy people could be when given a reason. I saw someone literally lying in he gutter.

Comment by Allen Capoferri March 23, 2013 @ 8:06 pmIt looks like he has gotten something to ponder over. Or maybe he is just very tired after too much celebrating. A great character with lots of personality.
Comment by munchow March 23, 2013 @ 9:14 pmOtto, thank you! You always have a beautiful way of saying it.
Comment by Allen Capoferri March 24, 2013 @ 4:11 pmI laid on the sidewalks of Dublin dead drunk one St. Patrick’s Day. I do not miss those days at all. This St. Patty’s Day I ran 8 miles in Fairmount Park in Philadelphia. I like that option much better.
A beautiful sketch, Allen. I can’t help but wonder what is on this man’s mind.
Comment by Dadicus Grinch March 24, 2013 @ 2:20 amI love your stories, even ones that are as short as this one! I remember Fairmount Park in Philadelphia. I think you choose a better option for this St. Patty’s Day too.
Comment by Allen Capoferri March 24, 2013 @ 4:19 pmI was wondering what was on his mind too…thank you!
