For the last five years or so, we've been passing by this sushi place on Thompson Street north of Bleecker and admiring their set of Mel Gibson portraits taped in the window. We love that they haven't bothered to repair the pictures as they've slowly faded to a wonderful shade of blue-- and we love the expression on Mel Gibson's face. It's like "hey, I'm just trying to eat some sushi, don't make me go all Braveheart on your ass." There are actually three pictures taped in the window, and you sort of see Mel's expression go from nice, to sort of annoyed, to "damn, this is just like what those Jews did to Christ." We hope the sushi place never takes them down-- in a couple of years they'll probably be completely unreadable, but we love them-- in our eyes, these pictures are priceless.

Tomoe (sp?) is south of bleeker, must be Doozo:

lol. I remember that picture being there when I first moved to the area in 1997. I wonder how long ago that was taken.
It's not Tomoe. It is Doozo, which is in between Bleecker and W. 3.
I walk by these photos everyday, and have wondered the same thing since the first time I saw them.
They seem to be dated around 1992, during the "Forever Young"-period.
