35. That one was on the Jersey Turnpike.
Edited on Wed Oct-29-03 01:39 AM by TreasonousBastard
It bothers me.

From the tone of the website, I guess it's supposed to be inspirational, but I see a little girl with far too much determination than a little girl should have. A little girl who knows things it's best for little girls not to know yet.

She's looking for something, but I don't know what it is she's looking for. It's one of the photos that means something to those who took it and chose it, but has so much more in it that they perhaps missed. Is the object of her desire arriving, or leaving?

It's just disturbing seeing that much gravitas in a child, if it is gravitas. It could just as easily be a new puppy or Daddy leaving on a two-week business trip.

Beats me and, because I don't know, I get the creeps when I see it. I'd admire that picture in a gallery where it could be pondered,but on a billboard....?
