TRASH

I keep telling you people that trash is beautiful. Can you see it now? The rich variety of it, the crumply damaged goodness. Of course, there's a downside to this lovely bouquet. The overwhelming majority of the objects in this can were used to drink water from. Once. Think of the effort and material that went into this. Oh sure, it's a recycle bin, but it's going to take even more effort to recycle these silly things. And what makes it into recycle centers is only a tiny fraction of what's out there. We're pampered slobs, all of us. And the thing of it is, if we stopped being pampered slobs, our economy would really crash. We're trapped. Here endeth Today's Chuckle.

You should make a full set of Mac OS X system icons in this style. Chock full o' awesomes.
hooray for today's chuckle!
(even though by now it's yesterday's.)
This reminds me of the wonderful Brit sculptor Tony Cragg (http://www.tony-cragg.com/) whose wall pieces of beach detritus are very lovely.
