Especially when they were probably designed as crisp and sharp vector graphics.
Seen in Todos Santos, Mexico.
As was this:
Sexy New Hydraulics
Coloured Type On Black
Young and Warm and Wonderful.
Upholstered Bum
From a chemists window – for some dubious anti-cellulite cream.
Seen in Amsterdam on ‘Botox Boulevard’.
Need Help Please Call Police
I didn’t.
Disco Movil
And on the door panel…
Seen in La Paz, Mexico. Reminds me of a load of bad tattoos.
Also saw a great fucked-up old car with ‘WU TANG’ badly applied on the windscreen; didn’t have my camera.

Either that or they’ve been abducted.
From a truly bizarre and entertaining in-flight catalogue on an American Airlines flight.
Staple Cacti
Over-flyered telegraph poles in Silver Lake, Los Angeles.
Ever-Decreasing Lobby Vortex
Mirrored lobby in LA with fake flowers and plants and screwed down chairs + jetlag = very David Lynch.
Blue Netting on Wood
Ham and Cheese
Huge window stickers in Monnikedam, NL
Fearless Freaks

The Flaming Lips at the Paradiso. The bottom right pic was just before it burst.
I quite like the new album, but this was one of the best gigs I’ve seen in terms of grin-inducing entertainment.
I’ve never seen anyone wearing a strobe light before.
