Is it just me or is there something wrong with this picture? I mean, to me this hairy Samson and his midget shopping cart don't look like a good fit. Aren't real men supposed to be pushing oversized shopping carts at the local Walmart rather than sorting pea-size groceries into miniature shopping carts? It is truly terrible what the world has come to, isn't it?

Oops, I forgot. This photo was taken in Berlin, the center of the universe, and not some remote place in the United States. Long live diversity. Without it, all evolution would be moot. Even if it comes with a beard and a shopping cart that can make a grown man cry.


PS: I hope it is obvious that you shouldn't take this blog entry too serious. Certainly, the photo is rather funny, in my opinion. And of course, the photo has been smudged with to avoid recognizing this (unknown to me) person.
