This is another one of my scans of photographs I took in 1980/81 of the plastered-over walls in or around SoHo in NYC.
Feel free to treat the comments section as a "café" — that is, an open thread.

Brian Wilson deflated the Patriots footballs; developing
@FullMoon, I wouldn't put it past him at this point.
@FullMoon, can you confirm that when Obama said "terrible things have been done in the name of Christ," he wasn't talking about deflating the footballs, was he?
I wouldn't be surprised if Williams really DOES "remember" it that way at this point. If you tell a lie often enough, you start to believe it yourself.
Happens to salespeople all the time.
Don't tell me that Edward Fox deflated the footballs. Perhaps soccer balls but not American footballs.
Who is that guy?
Looks like a cross between Dennis Hopper and Nick Cage. That would be one crazy man.
The partially covered face looks like Gromyko with Nixon's nose.
Also possibly a very crazy man.
Christopher Lee?
First glance I thought it was Rod Serling. On second glance it didn't.
Edward Fox upper left.
gregwithtwogs is correct - Edward Fox. I thought maybe Peter Lawford.
the second face is clearly liv ullmann
I think the hairline is wrong for Edward Fox. The picture is Edward Fox circa 1980, remembering that Althouse's photo is from 1980-1981.
The nose is also debatable.
I believe one is Mayor Lindsey and the other is either Perry or Amundsed.. I'll say Perry.
A portrait of a much whiter Bobby Jindal that hangs in his office?
I think this might be my favorite Althouse continuing series.
Absolutely loved the Klee, but these images I find myself drawn into: composition, color, framing --love it.
On this one I am enamored of the exposed paper scar that seems to say "Russian Revolt 9'.
Please continue.
I am Laslo.
Peter Weller?
Little itty/bitty Jordan is paying back the ISIS. Where the hell is Obama?
In fantasyland, I think.
It is really odd that he has no trouble tying the crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, etc., to Christ and Christians, but cannot bring himself to mention Mohammed or Islam to the current outrages by ISIS (or ISIL, Daesh, or whatever).
I don't think he is a Moslem - or anything else, for that matter - but I think he may have constructed something in his imagination about his father and ancestors in Kenya from what he has heard and read.
And it is distracting the United States.
Come to think of it, would not his stepfather in Indonesia also have been a Moslem? And what did his mother teach him? A different variety of Islam than al Baghdadi's certainly, but it would influence his mind.
I enjoyed Willliams' narration of the helicopter adventure on the Letterman show. It was full of humble brag: "Not anything compared to what Richard Engel endures on a daily basis." There was a smattering of military jargon to show that he has an informed knowledge of military operations. When he tells you that he was in the most forward and perilous position of the US Army, you truly believe him.....It was a fine performance that showed his modesty, courage, and knowledge of how wars play out. NBC is indeed lucky to have such a man to carry the image of their news brand forward.
Hemingway endured an artillery bombardment for eighteen minutes before get was wounded and sent back from the front. That was the sum total of his military experience in WWI. He wrote the emblematic novel of WWI, A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway looked like a war hero.......Robert Service survived the whole damn war on the western front. He wrote a book, Goodbye to All That, that detailed his experiences in the trenches. The book told how the Royal Medical Corps would loot the bodies of their fallen comrades. The book was a best seller, but it told a lot of sour, bitter truths about the war that no one wanted to remember. Service looked more like a classics scholar than a war hero...,..The book that is still taught and read is Hemingway's and not that of Service......If you want to tell a good war story, it's probably better to have experience at the level of Hemingway (or Brian Williams) rather than Robert Service. You know enough details to sound credible, but you're not bothered by all those terrible memories and PTSD crap.
Forgive me. Goodbye to All That was written by Robert Graves.
Little itty/bitty Jordan is paying back the ISIS.
"Little itty bitty Jordan" outclasses ISIS all by itself. Why get involved?
Ed Henry says if Obama has got Nancy Pelosi telling him to get off the dime and send Jordan some weaponry, he's got problems.
But I don't think what anybody says is going to move him in these matters. It is where he lives.
Looks like we are getting Net Neutrality - good and hard. It sounds cuddly and desirable like a puppy, but its despicable.
So an ISP wants to charge Netflix more because Netflix consumes bandwidth. If they have to build out capacity, shouldn't they charge heavy users?

Don't you mean Robert Graves, not Robert Service?
Peter Weller would have been too young to look like that in 1980/1981.
But that's a Peter Weller mouth on that guy.
People still pondering who the picture is of?
I gave the answer earlier.
Here is more evidence...

Aren't any of you teachable?

They should charge their own users, the ones who are consuming their bandwidth, not the providers those users pull from. Netflix already pays $$$ for its connections to the backbone, and when I watch a movie, I'm the one consuming my ISP's bandwidth, not Netflix. I'm already being charged for the bandwidth used.
If I'm making long-distance calls all day, should my long-distance carrier be able to charge the people I'm calling, as well as charging me? The theory makes no sense.
