Got this link in from my Best Bets news letter and I was wondering if anyone actually bought this stuff!

If anyone wants some Rotterdam garbage, I'd be happy to box it up and ship over to you ;O)

Packaging 101. Well after how many $$$$$of dollars he payed The School of Visual Arts? One does need to pay back loans. A novel idea? Not really. And people will pay for a piece of the big apple no matter what it is!!!

Thanks, Lisa. Now, why didn't I think of that? I think he's brilliant, hope he makes lots of $$$.

It reminded me of a NY collage I made to commemorate a friend's first -- and fabulous -- New York trip. I covered the inside of a lucite box frame with a subway map, then attached everything. Because of a bit of sound advice I gave that she chose to ignore, the highlight was a pair of teeny Barbie-sized stilleto heels in a red circle with a big red line through them. And, of course, subway tokens, little taxis, matchbooks from the restaurants we went to, theater ticket stubs, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember. Anyway, it was a hit, and is a great conversation piece that's in her office.

I couldn't believe it when I saw it. The website is damn good though, shame the content is so strange!

The collage sounds great, a really nice way to commemorate something special.

Great website Lisa, so innovative. There are so many raw materials out there too, I'm glad someone's picking up some of the garbage off the streets, I still can't come to terms with the litter on the streets in New York.

What an absolutely brilliant present! Now, one (it may seem silly!) question. What's a pocketbook ?Is it what we would call a purse, that you keep your money in ? Remember..I'm British!!!!!!!!
