Where I got the Mr. T doll I bought him on ebay for $10. He looks like he i s handmade. He is about 24 inches tall, so it kinda makes him like a cabbage patch doll. The amount of detail that went into making this figure is incredible! The hair is is nice that many have rubbed his head. He's got some nice gold necklaces and his rings are actually buttons sewed onto his fingers. His shoes are actually infant shoes. And yes, I actually did lose one of his shoes during the photo shoot. More about that story below. I also had to put a rubberband around his waist to keep his pants up. Apparently Mr. T has the habit of dropping his pants to moon people! When and where the pictures were shot Pictures 200012a_13 through 200012b_07 December 4, 2000: Monday after work The first day of the snow storm in Chicago. We had record snow for 24 hours that day. We got let out of work at 1:00pm, so people can get home on time. So while most people rushed to get home, I went out and took pictures and walked around Michigan Avenue. Pictures 200012b_08 through 200012c_07 December 5, 2000: Tuesday lunch break A nice sunny day for pictures. Most of these shots are from the northern loop area downtown. Pictures 200012c_12 through 200012d_03 December 6, 2000 Wednesday lunch break Another sunny day for pictures. Most of these shots are from the tourist area between Grand Ave and Chicago St. Pictures 200012d_04 through 200012f_26 December 10, 2000: A Sunday walk in the park The majority of my shots are from this five hour extravaganza outside in the 23 below zero wind chill! It started from the Grand and State at the Red Line where I walked over to Navy Pier and then along the lakeshore south the museum campus. At the end of the day, my jeans were literally frozen...they were like cardboard, seriously, they were all stiff and frozen. Equipment used Even with the duct tape to hold the cover closed, my camera gave me many hours usage in those sub-zero temperatures. At the last building on my trip, it finally gave up and froze on me.   Here's the hat that my brother gave to me for Christmas 1998. It gave many hours of warmth.   Mr.T and my G3 Mac.
