390 - Telephone Call From Istanbul



Or from anywhere. Honestly, I don’t know whom he is talking to, but this guy was certainly agitated. Is his baby coming home today? Does he dye his hair yellow? And if we should never trust a man in a blue trench coat, can we trust him if he wears a parka? So many questions.

Nikon 18-200 at 75mm, f8 and 1/40s.

The Song of the Day is “Telephone Call From Istanbul” (scroll down for the lyrics, it’s song #14) from Tom Waits’ masterpiece “Franks Wild Years”. But it’s all masterpieces, right? See him perform a different version on YouTube.

I'd trust him less if he wore a skirt. But that's just me.....

Nice catch...
