Not Man Ray

Editor's note -- Roger "I dunno" Ebert didn't know this is a picture of a guy holding a headless action figure while standing next to a bizarrely-dressed mannequin.

It's not easy to recognize Salvadore Dali because his mustache is normal-looking.

Editor's note -- The guy holding the action figure is Salvatore Dali. The Editor assumes that Man Ray took the picture because they were friends and did weird things together.

Comic book characters

Editor's note -- Michael Kupperman went to New York Comic Con 2011 this weekend dressed in a Mark Twain costume. He had his picture taken with Beetlejuice, Solomon Grundy, Big Bird and a Wookie. 

 "It was more fun than being just a guy and making small talk. Like being a character at Disneyland," said Mark Twain.

Footnote to History: Unfortunately, it was the Yankees who were eliminated from ALDS because A-Rod struck out. The Editor wishes the Tigers well in their quest to obliterate the Rangers.

Honky Tonk Woman

Editor's note -- In which Roger Ebert is unaware this is a picture of Mick Jagger in drag.

Editor's note -- Maybe, Roger. It all depends on who you think it is.

Shooters

Editor's note -- If an Iowa City nerd doesn't know what to do on Bourbon Street on a Friday night, then it isn't a good idea to let everyone know.

Editor's note -- As I've said, try oysters raw at Acme. Or if you just want crappy food, go to Pat O'Briens and have a Hurricane instead.

@KarenAGardner I didn't know, honest. Anyhow, aren't oysters aphrodisiacal? And aren't there enough kids in this lousy world? Why risk it?

Covert cat?

Editor's note --  Author and former CIA Agent Larry J. Kolb relayed this picture of a short man conferring with a suspiciously tall cat to Roger Ebert's Journal.

  

Editor's note -- As it turns out the cat was not an undercover spy in a covert operation, but was simply overly tall.
