Title supplied by cataloger. Photographer's caption reads, ""I've failed at everything else, so I might as well be a fool on a streetcorner." Steve Sharp's corner of choice is in front of the vacuum cleaner store where Sunset and Hollywood avenues meet. His motivation is political. He comes every Friday night to wave his signs and scream at the passing traffic about the Bush administration. "It's like a horror movie. Don't you see who the bad guys are? Don't you see what they're doing?""; This view shows Hillhurst Avenue in the center.
