Street Pie by Dave Tamkus

This is a nice little five-year old gem I recently rediscovered as I was moving.
I was in Pittsburgh and, despite growing up in the Coal Region, was captivated by the totally

different kind of bat-shit crazy people wondering the streets of this much bigger city. I snapped this picture of a construction site. When I returned home and had it developed I was shocked at what I saw running the streets. I now understand why the crazies were constantly talking into their hand as they furiously pushed their cart of empty cans, as though something were chasing them.

It's like some sort of crazy pie riot in the IC. Although I'm not entirely convinced this is Pittsburgh because not a single pie man is sporting a mustache.

Where are all of these hookers (i.e. "Street Pie") running to? A pretty crazy charity 5K run for the Elks Lodge's summer clam bake, if that is the case.

I've long wondered what happens when you dump a bunch of Trivial Pursuit pieces into a steaming vat of Atomic Space Mystery Fluid.
