Here's what I think- "happiness" is something that was invented at some point in the twentieth century. After this picture was taken, anyway. Not that people weren't happy sometimes. It just wasn't expected and it probably wasn't expressed as much, either. This is why we are all on anti-depressants- we expect to be happy when in reality, that's a load of crap. Or, it could be that I just need to go back on my anti-depressant.

I dig this photo. They all look pretty sour though.
I think people really just smiled less in photos then.

I dunno, I'm generally a happy guy, even when things are going badly.
And I count that as one of the things I am most grateful for every day.
Me, too, believe you me!
I like this one so much!
I like the hats.
One hat can be an entire costume if well played. Trying on hats is like trying on different people, don't you think?
Hats and shoes. It's all about hats and shoes.
