Project: House of Exorcist

This is not an electronics blog. It's an investigation .

Story: the house in The Exorcist is inspired by a painting by René Magritte. (Story and source of the above image)
Here is the painting:

Magritte lived here - a few blocks away, and used a house in the neigbourhood (see article referring to Josaphat, where I live).

I think I spotted it (image source: me - see also 2012 restauration project article):

and a photo from my back window:

Supposedly part of the inspiration for the Exorcist movie comes from my hometown in St. Louis: www.slu.edu/.../slu-legends-lore-exorcism.php

Nice investigative work. When I was in Brussels I had a hard enough time finding Manneken Pis.

The image above was an adaption someone did. An edit. But it is based on a real sign, somewhen last milennium:

There was (is) the ancient road to Brussels. And a new express-way, longer but faster.
The way they indicated that, is open to discussion.

"All roads lead to Bruxelles"...

More commonly these days it is more a case of "how do I escape this one-way system"...
