Never have the damn camera when you want it! I was just standing outside with some of my dogs, when this Filipino guy jogs by - big guy, running at a pretty good clip. He's dressed head to toe in a Batman costume - shit you not! I now have the camera, and will see if he comes by again. There are some right strange folks round these parts........

Robin can't be far behind...you'll have to change the title when you get his pic...

Was he singing the Batman theme song as he ran past?

Davis Knowlton · 31-01-2013, 01:54 PM

^Nope, but he had the full kit, down to the boots.

The Fresh Prince · 31-01-2013, 02:15 PM

Now that I didn't notice. He never came back by today, but I will be ready for him tomorrow if he runs on the same schedule. My wife runs, and says she's never seen him. It's a big compound, so lots of areas in which to run. We'll see.......

Not Batman related, but the camera comment reminded me of something. Several years ago I went along to the local Immigration Office for some silly stamp in my passport, and there was a guy sitting in front of me waiting his turn. Young, maybe mid-20s, white, fit-looking, tanned, filthy dreadlocks hanging down to his arse. Dressed in rags, no shoes and stinking to high heaven. He'd crowned his attire with a rice steaming basket as a hat, and there was a wide circle around him devoid of anyone with a functioning nose. Right in front of him, just to the right, and pinned to the counter facing us was a notice reading something like Please dress politely when you come to Immigration. If I'd had a camera, I would have had a classic photo.

Davis Knowlton · 31-01-2013, 04:11 PM

^That would have been classic, indeed. And people wonder why Immigrations folks are so grumpy.....

In subscript: Not that dressing politely will do you any good. We accept cash.

Wasn't that Neo?

You will be sent away in Indonesia dressed like that.
