Bonus Round

Forgot to post this one before. Is it me, or does it look like this little guy is wearing shoes?



My cousin's mini horse, Sam, is never lonely cuz he's got this face to keep him company. We took a picture of Sam, too, but it didn't really turn out. Suffice it to say, he's cute, and he, being a miniature horse, would fit in my Mini Cooper.

And You Thought It Was Just Big Brother Watching

Lenore found there were more than just government agents watching during her recent trip to D.C.

I think I like this winking fan the best out of the collection. It has a certain je ne sais quoi flare.



This Tupper topper was in Lyla's kitchen. No doubt sweating over whether there would be leftovers or not.



Tracy's scooter offers three faces -- can you see them?



I think I like this one (the lower one) best.



The chopping block in Austin's kitchen was working overtime.



Kimberly Clark was hanging out at O'Hare again.

Being Watched in MO

Lenore's supposed to be inspecting aviation sites and what not, but I think she's getting a little distracted. So many faces, so little time. She said all of these faces reside in the Lambert Airport neighborhood. Some are in buildings, some are on runways (!). What's she doing on the runway? I asked the same question.

I like this three-for-one shot. It must have been something like this that inspired those little yellow guys (a.k.a. ruthless menacing minions) in Despicable Me.



Tool boxes always have so much to say.



At first I wasn't sure if this one met our high standards, but then I decided I liked the way it emotes that cartoon gangster air. "It's like 'dis, seee?"




This guy's off center cuz he's a little tanked. (sorry)



The little building had dreams of being the understudy for Jeff Goldblum. (I'm not going to explain it, you either see it or you don't.)



Speaking of elusive references, does this one make anyone think of David Bowie? (OK, one hint: China Doll...or is it China girl? Well, you know what I mean, right?)



I guess it's China Girl.


David Bowie - China Doll

But I digress...

Minions. Sounds like a snack food.

Any Way You Slice It

Who knew tomatoes and cucumbers could be so expressive (despite being photographed w/an iPhone)?

And this? We call this (another accidental face) "Sidewalk in July." By we, I mean Lenore, who took the photo.

Short and Stout

Is it a teapot for a liquid-restricted diet? No matter -- the face is cute.



This is embedded in the wall at work. I'm not really sure what it is. The beauty of it is, you're not even sure where the face begins and ends, but you know it's there.



Raspberry-rhubarb jam face. See it?

Accidental Faces

We actually see these quite often, but this one was particularly cute, albeit temporary, as accidental faces tend to be.

Laura didn't even know she had captured this face 'til I bugged her to send it to me. I prolly should have lightened it, but I'm in a hurry!

Hardware Hank

Pat found this delightful hardware face and turned it into a special delivery. It was waiting for me just like this on my desk at work, so I documented it as such.

This second face is in a pioneer house in McHenry County -- photo by Lenore.




And, also from the LMC collection, faces in a day's work (if you're climbing a tower).




This is the back side of the Anvil Club -- can you see the face?
