I'm quite sure Wim got it...you know, that little bronze boy in the fountain in...Antwerp? Brugge? I'm pretty sure it's not Ghent...saw it as a kid in 1968, so my geographical memory's a little foggy, but I'll never forget that 'attitude'...

By the way, Jerry...nice 'waffle' reference...

Also, Wim (and I can't believe I didn't think of it 'til now)...beautiful guitar, despite the rather obvious 'crack' in the finish...

Oh yeh. I do remember that now you mention it. Memory fade! I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I knew that there would be a valid point in your comment somewhere. I had faith in you, even though I did not "get it" right away. LOL

Here you go:

Brussels: Manneken Pis
Corner of Rue de l' Etuve and Rue du Chêne

Brussels it is! Home of world-famous 'sprouts'...

Excellent detective work, Brian...and by the way, what a great 'rapper' pose! Somebody put a backwards baseball hat on that kid...

I've been there and seen that...don't they run beer or wine through him for some festival, or am I thinking of Germany? My first wife is from Germany (my Astrid period), so we saw lots of small town festivals.

Yes you are correct, Beer is apparently the beverage of choice on those occasions Jerry.

Thanks. I found that quite interesting.
