Yes, the name is "pizza", but this hole-in-the-wall has the BEST hamburgers I have ever had! I had an bacon cheeseburger with just bbq sauce and it was HEAVEN! I absolutely cannot wait to get back to Cherokee, North Carolina just to eat here again!
If you squint, it reads "SIN WITH YOUNG AMERICA!" Makes me wonder if it was intentionally designed that way by some wiseguy graphic designer-- This is a compilation record with Palermo Brothers, Kurt Kaiser, Gloria Roe, Greg Loren, etc.--
My Wiseguy Pizza from Bianco. It's a white pizza, with smoked mozzarella, fennel sausage (which smelled divine), and roasted onions. These all combined to make one of the very best pizza experiences I've ever had.

Looks like these two were planning a hit, right out of some mob movie..
Although, in reality, it was probably a discussion about late TPS reports.

The second of my stooges, Moe looks less menacing than usual! The ringleader of the Three Stooges, Moe was always the heavy, poking the other two's eyes, and calling them "Wiseguys"!
I've been pulling overtime lately, and have been pretty exhausted. There's not enough hours in the day to get everything I need to do done, and I made a commitment to myself to get some of my editing done since I'm lagging dreadfully behind. Consequently, I haven't been on here commenting much, and probably won't be for a while until I start getting caught up, otherwise I'll be posting Christmas pics for the next month! (Actually I might anyway!)
I'll be back to normal for a while in January, at least until Presidents Day, and will hopefully be able to catch up with some commenting then. I pray you all have a wonderful New Years, and I'll look forward to seeing what you're seeing in 2014! God bless...Chris
The instant I saw Stranger #37, I was thinking of a old-fashioned stylized portrait. He was standing in front of a fairly upscale restaurant…presumably a doorman. I certainly did not know what to expect approaching a guy who looked very serious and personified the roll of a wise guy in every conceivable way. Once I broke the ice, I discovered that he was possibly my most affable stranger I have met to date.
His name is Rocco, and his surname is also Italian which only underscored my notion to render a 1940’s style gangster portrait. He broke out into a wide grin and immediately agreed to my request stating, “I love this kind of stuff”. For his day job he is actually a middle school art teacher. He was very interested in the project as it is something he or his students might consider doing. He then started describing a film making project that his students completed last year. The student project was topped off by a premier showing of the movie at a local theater (pretty cool in my opinion). My son (who has stated an interest in film making) just happened to be accompanying me on this stranger hunt. My son said he would like to make a zombie movie, and Rocco responded by saying that that was exactly what his students produced. He promised to forward us information on how to view the movie so that it might serve as inspiration for my son.
Regarding the image, my goal for the 100 Strangers Project is to learn about environmental portraiture as well as to attempt to capture the inner humanity of my subjects. A stylized portrait is a little bit of a step away from the latter goal, but I do like to mix things up from time to time and I am a fan of gangster movies, so this was fun little project. That said, I am hopeful that I have managed to render a decent image of Rocco the man rather than just a Photoshopped image of a fictitious gangster.
