I was reading this article about Ann Coulter and I noticed the photo credit:
Image via Jimbo Wales/Flickr

Hrm?

So I poked around in Jimbo's Flickr.

He does get around, and there are a disproportionate number of brunettes in his photostream.

Notice how all Jimbo's Flickr photos are © All rights reserved by Jimbo Wales.

So much for Creative Commons, openness and other people's images. This one is really begging for a comic caption.

Does this have a slightly 'mad stare' neurotic look to it?

Where is Moulton ... is he really ban-banned?

There is a flirty-looking, red head called Julie in there too. It probably means something only Moulton can explain to us why.

Hrm. The one I linked to had only 'some' rights reserved, as did the Coulter pic.

Most of Jimbo's face shots have an odd 'frightened badger' look to them. He needs a 'photo coach' or a mild tranquilizer.

That might be intentional. All he needs is a parrot on his shoulder (vs. dozens on his TALK page wink.gif).
