I love Cigar Store Indians and started snapping pictures of them throughout Orange County about a month ago. Here are three; in Orange at the Circle, in an antique store in San Juan Capistrano, and in Frontierland in Disneyland.
I’m going to try posting a daily song along with my photo.
Thanks to the magic of BLIP.fm, I am able to post a song and you are able to listen to it–free. If you aren’t familiar with BLIP.fm, it’s a bit like the love child of iTunes and Twitter. It’s a comunity of people who love music but, it’s also like a jukebox, playing the songs you choose–again, for free.
When you add DJ’s to your group, you can listen to their music as well–did I mention it’s free? If you want to join me there, click on the big, yellow BLIP.fm button and get yourself distracted by yet another social network. Seriously, Facebook? How two months ago…
The Daily Song was Elivis Costello’s Shipbuilding.
Shipbuilding… my favorite song of all time. Indians are cool too.. or should I say Native Americans?
I LOVE–HEART– Elvis Costello! This is one of my favorite songs by him. Not widely played, but so wonderful. thanks for sharing.
Tish Tish on you for putting down Facebook.
I haven’t seen a cigar store “Indian” in ages, and haven’t been to Orange County since the early 70’s, can you imagine? Come visit me in Belgrade sometime!
We have neither Cigar stores or Indians so these are most exotic to me. The one in the center is my favourite from these. He looks to the sky.
Those cigar store indians??? I thought they were a thing of the past….have not seen one in ages. Thanks for bringing up the memory!!!
I have not seen blip till now…you are so hip. 😉
Hahaha, yes facebook is soooo over (especially after they screwed around with the layout…i don’t know what’s where!)
And I don’t know if I’ve ever come across any cigar store Indians. I’ll have to keep an eye out when I’m walking around the city.
Love that song! And haven’t seen a cigar store Indian in ages. Must be alert…
I think there are at least two at Disneyland. These are very cool. Elvis Costello is very cool, too. Very cool post.
Speaking of Cigar Store Indians and music….be sure NOT to miss out on these guys. If you can see them live, all the better. http://tinyurl.com/3vuo3a
Dear Suz, thanks ever so much for stopping by. Great shots of Cigar Store Indians. A man offered me a cigar this weekend. I took one puff. What a rush. Who knew that cigars could do that, and they’e legal! I’m too lightweight for them.

Fun to see these! We don’t see them anywhere around here.
