Description
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
who was just as sloshed as Schlegel.
From the Philosopher's Drinking Song as sung by Monty Python
Montague's, the first door on the left is a lovely barbecue place in Hermann, Missouri that serves up a smoked brisket to die for. Louie Montague is from Texas and they know how to smoke a brisket down there! The second door was formerly a coffee shop called Philosopher's. Louie has since incorporated it into his business. I guess that explains the title. The photo is a nocturne, or a night time picture. Even though it was pretty dark, there was enough light from street lamps and such to cast my shadow on the sidewalk. I could have removed it in post processing but I decided to make an appearance ala Alfred Hitchcock.
