Kyle:

As a (one of millions, it seems) a former photojournalist, I gotta tell 
ya, those were GREAT pix.

Almost, "no captions required".  Great work!



Bob in Seattle (Home of Curt Cobain, and Kenny G; that wierd enough?.)

It's time for Philadelphia's mayor, John Street, to step down. There's a
wide range of contenders to fill his shoes. One of them is Milton Street
-- the mayors own brother. 

Despite being under federal inditement and not even living in the state,
Milton's the media's favorite because -- well, he's so incredibly odd.

He had a noon rally today threatening to pull out of the race if 5,000
people didn't show up. 150 showed up, and 40 reporters. True to form, he
had a piano player tickling the ivories while he spoke, then he hauled a
coffin out on stage with him, then he started preaching (quoting the
bible, waving his arms), then he'd lean on the coffin for a while, and
then, overcome by the spirit -- he burst into song. After the rally he
did a duet with some guy from WIP radio. Oh yeah.
