    Right now, there is a PBS special on Prohibition, when alcohol was banned in USA in the 1800s. There was saloon music playing in the background.

    Which reminded me of this photograph

    Actually, I am so fixated on the baby, second to right.

    Does the baby not realize he is being squished?

    I guess that's what makes him (or her) especially adorable; so innocent.

    What's with the baby's puckered lips and big cheeks, he is trying to blow raspberries (like more babies?)

    But for some reason, when I zoom into that particular baby, I think of Saloon Music



    Then, right now I am hearing the PBS special on Prohibition from the TV, and they are playing Saloon Music in the background (because they served Alcohol in Saloons), and it reminded me of that picture of all the babies, especially the one, 2nd from right, who looks most squished, yet is taking it easy.

    Is it me, or do certain things remind you of something that is totally unrelated?
