 Re: WOW!
I got that email from someone at work last week. I thought it was photoshopped.

 Re: WOW!
To me the guy looks Hispanic, which in south Florida wouldn't be any stretch. Nonetheless, I never trust photos like that in e-mails because the majority are fake and photoshopped. Some just look more real than others.

That address is 818 N. Ridgewood Ave., Daytona Beach. I guess that Daytona Beach is not south Florida and is more north than anything. I forgot my Florida geography for a second...my bad. Having lived in numerous states that are farther north, when I visit Florida, it all seems south to me. Of course, being that the picture is from Daytona Beach changes the Demographics. Quote: The racial makeup of the city was 62.33% White, 32.75% African American, 1.73% Asian, 0.32% Native American, 0.06% Pacific Islander, 1.05% from other races, and 1.76% from two or more races. 3.48% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race. Also, find a wrinkle anywhere on the shirt and trace it towards the letters. What happens? Ever see a tshirt with writing on it have wrinkles all over except where the lettering is? Seems photoshopped to me.

 Re: WOW!
I only see Mason Ave in the picture. Definitely no addresses. I guess my real question was, were you familiar with the area or was there something in the picture that you used to figure it out. I never doubted it was Florida, because it looks like 75 percent of this state...just wondering how you could tell.
And yeah, I assumed it was photoshopped originally...but I dont think you can really tell for sure. There are a couple wrinkles under the lettering, and it looks like the shirt is pretty tight against his back and just gets looser nearer the edges. But...yknow.

 Re: WOW!
Where would he buy that shirt? The owners would never get away with it. He'd have to make it on his own... I dunno. I'm betting on photoshop.

 Re: WOW!
You'd be surprised at some of the crap you can buy from Flea Markets. Or, yeah, he could have made it himself...either with like, iron on type letters, or maybe a screen printer friend or something. Why would the person behind him take the picture if it was just a white shirt? Just because some biker has a McCain plate? I dunno, I wouldnt doubt its fake...but I also wouldnt be surprised if its not.

There are a couple wrinkles under the lettering, and it looks like the shirt is pretty tight against his back and just gets looser nearer the edges. But...yknow. I've been to Florida a few times and from the license plate I thought it was Florida, but I wasn't sure if it was south Florida or somewhere else. I did a little research. I did a Google search for - "Mason Avenue" EZ Pawn - and it came up with the address 818 N. Ridgewood Ave., Daytona Beach, for the EZ Pawn. I have been to Daytona Beach and that looked somewhat familiar. I went to google maps and looked up the EZ Pawn. And the street that intersects the Ridgewood Ave in Daytona Beach was Mason Ave. I then used STREET VIEW on the Google Map. When you play around enough with that, you can recreate the exact same picture that was taken of the biker. However, with Street View you can see all around the area. Type in Ridgewood Ave/Mason Ave in Daytona Beach and you can see all the stores that are in the picture. Though the letters in Street View are blurry, the shapes and colors are all the same. Does this make sense? Anyway, the biker is on Ridgewood Ave in the left turn lane, preparing to turn NE onto Mason Ave.

 Re: WOW!
The guys a clown. John McCain would not be proud for having his support.

Would this be the same McCain who has accused Obama of palling around with terrorists, who's stood by as his supporters have shouted "traitor" about Obama? The McCain who has allowed his surrogates to say that Obama hates America, might be a terrorist, and wants to let newborn babies die? McCain is an embarrassment who has sold his soul to win. There is no depth to which he will not sink to win. As long as this guy votes for him, he doesn't care.
