James McMurtry...Live on the Streets of Spokane Washington

stopping for a quick photo before he went inside for two sets at the A Club. And, yes, he played No More Buffalo, and, yes, it was the best song of the night... but only because he didn't play Lights of Cheyene.

A Bandana and a scowl...Uruzgan

Scarved...Shakardara

Tattooed....On the Panjshir river valley

An Afghan National Army Officer with a tattoo from Iran which looks kind of like a heart with a pump (could be a real handy thing come to think of it, at least much better than a heart with a fucking arrow) stops fishing for five minutes to pose shamelessly on the banks of the Panjshir River. Insert Whitman quote here:

Grey Faux Leather and a Broom...a hotel, a television, a gas-heated room...Kunduz, near the Tajik border

Stencil....Kabul

A stencilist loose in Kabul. the numbers are the street numbers, the images are graphic renderings of everyday things--some opium poppy a little wheat an AK. I don't know what 'MAFIA' is a comment on exactly. A stop sign is a stop sign is a stop sign.
