Every once in a while, when you are out taking photos with your camera, somebody invariably walks right in front of your lens.

You know the drill.  You have the family all lined up for that perfect shot right in front of Bigfoot, and some Joe-Schmoe steps right in the way.   Welllllll, as it turns out, this very thing happened to me this weekend while shooting at the Oktoberfest in West Alex.

I spotted, who I THOUGHT was Jimmy Hoffa.  Not kidding.  This guy looked just like Hoffa.  Older…….. but it was him.  He was sitting over curbside during the parade munching on Twinkies, and sipping a Chocolate Yahoo.  So I steadied my camera and started to shoot, and BLAM-O.  This joker walks RIGHT in front of my lens.  Well, by the time he cleared my view, I looked back to snap the evidence of Hoffa, and he was G-O-N-E.

I didn’t think much more about it until I looked at my images tonight.  As it turns out, the guy who stepped in front of my camera was WALDO. Can you believe it?  I FOUND WALDO!   Holy crap!  This is MUCH bigger than a Hoffa sighting.  All those people, all those years, asking, asking asking….”Where in the world is Waldo?” Writing books about it…. movies…….  and ….. HA!  I gotcha’ Waldo-Boy.

He’s in West Alexandria everyone.  From the looks of it though, he’s been eating Twinkies, and drinking Yahoos with Hoffa…….
