Scenes from the smoke shop.

Photographed yesterday, at Knuckleheads on State Street. I especially like the "Don't steal or else" in the lower left of this photo (click to enlarge and see details):

Did Althouse ask permission before taking this picture and, if so, what did the man behind the counter say?
	No. Althouse wouldn't risk getting a "no."
	No. This picture is proof that she didn't, because he would have said no.
	Yes, and he said "no," but she took the picture anyway.
	Yes, and he said, "What's it to me? It's not my store."
	Yes, and he said, "Yeah, it's a free country. Knock yourself out."
	Yes, and he said, "Sure, and put it on your blog, Althouse."
	Yes, and he said, "Yes, and thanks for asking."
