What are the donut derelicts? Those guys look pretty angry!

Yeah they all look pissed off. Don't know why.
Donut Derelicts is the name of the founding group of car enthusiasts who bring their cars to the donut shop each Saturday morning.

I'm thinking they just found out the place ran out of PBR?

They do have that look about them, Glenn. Good call.I'm thinking they just found out the place ran out of PBR?
By the way, I know a place in Long Beach that still has PBR on tap! (Can't be many of those around.)

Only in Cal would they sell PBR on tap. It never would taste as good as in the backseat at a drive in...or a friends house while the parents were on vaca. Damn...am I showing my age or what!

Great picture Brian. Not sure if I'd be so quick to take a photo in this situation without a small concern of comments coming my way? Nice one.

Thanks Julian. I know what you mean. But they probably thought I was just trying to fix my camera. (I used a TLR for this image, so I had the camera at chest height, and I was looking down into it.)

Actually, I believe I could outrun those chaps. (Although the Adonis-like specimen on the left might give me a run for my money with those trainers!I guess he figured he could outrun them.

True. He does look poised and ready for action. You had a lucky escape I reckon!

There is a definite sense that something is happening about this. Can't tell what it is but that adds to the intrigue.

Funny,...it didn't seem that way at the time. It sure does in the fotie, though. Thanks, Paul!

"Just play it cool and pretend he ain't there, but watch out 'cos if I ain't mistook, he's packing a Yashica 635. And he ain't afraid to use it!).

I think the phrase we're looking for is 'and that's when it all kicked off'
