Vintage Photos: Johnny Eck
www.johnnyeckmuseum.com
"Johnny Eck was born 27 August 1911 along with a twin brother named Robert. Johnny was born sans legs and with a truncated spine, resulting in the appearance of his body stopping midway through his torso.
In the mid '20s, Johnny began performing as a single-o (solo sideshow), although his brother traveled with him to emphasize their difference. He worked for years in the entertainment business, and is best known for his role in Tod Browning's Freaks. ( More (including very cute baby photos) )"

Quiz: Name the Movie Part 2
What movie is it?
Well, the answer is here if you want it.
Another name the movie (part 1) here. I'm still waiting for the answer...
UPDATE (080808):
I don't believe for a second that no one knows this but since there has been no answers yet (probably due to the fact that there is a link to the correct answer) I'm adding a couple of images. Just for fun.

Problem: YouTube Freezing
I've been experiencing YouTube problems again... sigh! But - I also think I've found the solution! :D
The problem: When trying to watch the videos they load but won't play more than a second or so - it freezes.
The solution: Closing down Skype. There seems to be a conflict between the two.
Maybe this information is relevant to you too.

UPDATE: Well I'm not so sure how relevant it was even to me. The problem came back so I googled some more and I hope this is going to help at least me: FireFox Support: Flash animations (like youtube video) stops playing after 2 seconds
I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Ephemera: German Sheet Music
This is the cover of a German early 1930's book of sheet music. I admit it's also a repost from about three years ago, but hey it's summertime. And it is beautiful. Right?
Here you can find another nice one that I found in the same thrift store.
