I never know what I’ll find on a garage door.
I felt free, when I saw this.
I’m going to guess geese!
They flew around the side, in their colourful sky.

Frank Zappa
I found Frank Zappa Today!
I adore the characterization.
The trees and ivy obscured the art and its message.
It says: Stupidity Has A Certain Charm
Ignorance Does Not
I had to take this from an angle. The angle was in the first lane of west bound traffic in the road. I waited until the light was red both ways , then made my moves. Most excitement I’ve had in 2 years!
As a Veggie, I chose this song, my fave vegetable song, ever!

There was a hard to get at pigeon on the side by the mailbox, and one on the other side beside a telephone pole.
Ali – The Legend Lives On
It’s been 55 years since this fight.
I don’t even know who won?
I figure it was Ali.
I just looked it up! It was Ali.
“He’s the toughest guy I ever fought”, said Ali of Chuvalo after the fight.

Legends never die. In Toronto they become street art.
Drake & Rough Trade – En Graffe
Billboard has named DRAKE; the “Artist of the Decade”
I chose this song by Drake, because it was outta the gate the year after I worked with him, on “Degrassi the Next Generation”. He was a decent person, with respects and good work ethics.
ROUGH TRADE
This 80’s Canadian band was fronted by Carol Pope & Kevin Staples.
Perhaps they were like a New Wave version of Alice Cooper? You know rough, in an oddly sexy way.
They seem somewhere between Rock, Punk and New Wave; and I like them lots!
So cool, Carole Pope and Dusty Springfield had an affair! http://www.laventure.net/tourist/anti-diva.htm
It was difficult to pick a fave song. They had a lot of good ones.

Steve McQueen – Bullitt
Okay, I’ve always had crush on Steve McQueen.
I cut this artist some slack, as he painted this on seriously rough stucco wall. Below is the poster the painting is a rendition of. There are many Bullitt posters, but I didn’t see the exact one the artist painted.
You can buy various size repros of the poster, starting at $25.00. However, I saw an original (1968 – mint condition) theatre size poster for sale in the U.K. £4,500.00.
MANY say the car chase in Bullitt is the greatest car chase ever filmed. I agree. It’s real. No CGI! Steve McQueen was credited with the driving during the chase sequence. Actually it was shared with Bud Ekins, one of Hollywood’s best stunt drivers.
The chase kicks in at 3 minutes, but dial it back to the beginning for the full effect of this 10 minute masterpiece.
In 2020, the green Mustang sold at auction for 3.4 million dollars.
