Elmo and Bugs Bunny - a photo on Flickriver

            This was just about the funniest thing I saw all day yesterday.  First of all, I didn't know these two hung out.  Secondly, they came out of the subway and just kind of meandered around.  Thirdly, I shit you not, Bugs Bunny had a limp.  Fourthly, they are carrying christmas stockings.  (It was easter yesterday).  

We came to the conclusion that under those adorable, cartoon character exteriors, they are in fact a couple of, as the boy called them, crackheads, thinking they'll get some tips if they wander around in these suits and take pictures with people.  Judging by the state of the costumes, neither of us would be surprised if they found them in the dumpster. 

Oh! Oh! And Elmo had "I Love You!" painted in big white letters on his mouth.  You can just see the side of the white in this shot.

Oh, and I didn't play with the saturation here, for some reason Elmo just glowed.
