Grapes Over Easy

Who cares if they were implanted in the breasts of the tatoo girl on your leg.

Check it. Not for the faint of heart.

As the economy slows, even the recycling business is feeling it. Below is from this article in NYT. Do you think that pretty soon local governments will start charging for or ditching recycling programs? I do.

For much of this year, the company shipped about 25 containers a day, each filled with 23 tons of refuse to be recycled. But after the Olympics, demand slowed for recycled metal. In October, demand for everything else took a sharp downturn, and for the last two weeks the company has not shipped a single container.

“It just came to a complete stop. Absolutely a stop,” said Gilbert Dodson, the recycling company’s co-owner. “I’ve seen it slow over the last 25 years, but this is the worst,” he said of the current downturn.

Like his counterparts in the auto industry, Mr. Dodson is looking for extra space to accommodate the growing number of bales on his three-acre property. The recycled goods keep arriving in big trucks, even though he now pays only $21 a ton for refuse he paid $120 a ton for earlier this year, but there is nowhere for him to export.

“It keeps coming in,” he says. “But no one is buying.”

Today is Veteran's Day. We can never say thank you enough to the ones who stepped forward to defend our country and the world around us. We should never take those sacrifices lightly.

Thank you.

These might not show up right away. There may be some time until they are processed by YouTube. Pokey pokes.

Any day is a good day for Björk.

First, her Pixieness describes how a television works here. Not exactly accurate, but who really knows for sure. Oh- Robert Smith needs his hair back when you are done.

Then we move on to a version of Big Time Sensuality here. Where exactly does she store that voice? It certainly couldn't fit in her body. Maybe a storage trailer hidden in a secret bunker?

Amazing on both counts. Love that little sugarcube.

Not sure what kind of controls they have in Dubai on structural engineering, but I hope they don't have any tectonic instability over there.

Must be a great place to live if you are an architect.

Either the guy is delusional or he knows something we don't. I am terrified to think that he never cared about his campaign because he knew it was all taken care of already. Vote vote vote vote vote vote vote your ears off. We could be days away from Shrub declaring martial law and putting us all in Gitmo.
