making stuff out of juice boxes

i bought a tiny bag made out of tomato paste bags (from europe) and thought it was a cute concept at the time, but then i found this website and although i'm not truly inspired to make any, i didn't know you could make so many things with a discarded juice baggie.

also, this is another crafty forum i've discovered.

found pics

as you guys know, i'm a photography nut. i take pictures of just about everything. so i was excited when I heard about this guy who has been picking up people's thrown away pictures for the last 15 years and now he's going to have an exhibit of them in argentina. totally crazy. if you can't fly down for the show, here are the pics online.

david sedaris claims

so i was listening to david sedaris about how he likes to ask locals about their state's gun laws when he travels around the country. he mentioned how in michigan the visually impaired are allowed to hunt without the assistance of a sighted person. i happily harassed marco with this tidbit about his former state but then started wondering if it was true. so i looked around the web for any evidence of this claim and could only find the law where it says that visually impaired hunters may use laser sighting devices only accompanied by another sighted and licenced hunter. however, it says nothing about regular handguns and crossbows... hmmmm....
