I twisted the images into fitting into various personas -- the rich person living in Dupont Circle, the poor one in Columbia Heights, and the paranoid one near Galludet University. In the end though, everyone likes buying things.brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16444792073116647434noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202915480415349060.post-83947003705059204612009-03-15T22:28:00.006-04:002009-03-18T16:18:11.675-04:00This person likes to buy things.I live in Dupont Circle.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/001.JPG"><br /><br />I am a colorful urban planner.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/002.JPG"><br /><br />I will buy these because they're colorful.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/003.JPG"><br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/004.JPG"><br /><br />I will furnish my colorful apartment suite.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/005.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/006.JPG">brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16444792073116647434noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202915480415349060.post-77879238057424482232009-03-15T22:27:00.005-04:002009-03-16T18:52:37.743-04:00This person wants to buy things.I live in Columbia Heights.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/007.JPG"><br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/008.JPG"><br /><br />I go to the thrift store to get my threads.<br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/009.JPG"><br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/010.JPG"><br /><br /><img src="http://brookekao.com/walking tour/011.JPG"><br /><br />I bought this for $12.90.
