(Computer / e-bay / equipment sellers / etc). But I agree with you on the no babes front, which struck me frankly as WEIRD in so far as the hoopla clearly was driven at least in part by good old reliable American sexual hysteria: half the article was people saying he was essentially hanging around like some kind of perv taking pictures of women, with his tongue hanging out and on the verge of exposing himself. There are like five pictures of women out of 70. He seems actually most interested in homeless panhandler wino types. They have faces that tell stories 'tis true. This country is getting more nuts all the time. Imagine if Lluis started hanging round taking shots and posting them with tags like "Two fun senoritas." He'd be in jail. Plus, you know, he's foreign.
