This orange chair from Dutch designer Frank Willems gets its unique shape from recycled mattresses. Willems learned that mattresses are the one of the more difficult things to dispose of and decided to attempt creative re-use of them.

All-Time Greatest
An illegal alien, in Polk County, Florida, who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop, ended up "executing" the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range.
Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed.
A state-wide manhunt ensued.
The murderer was found hiding in a wooded area. As soon as he took a shot at the SWAT team, officers opened fire on him. They hit the guy 68 times.
Naturally, the media went nuts and asked why they had to shoot the poor, undocumented immigrant 68 times.
Sheriff Grady Judd told the Orlando Sentinel:
"Because that's all the ammunition we had."
The Coroner also reported that the illegal alien died of natural causes. When asked by a reporter how that could be, since there were 68 bullet wounds in his body, he simply replied:
"When you are shot 68 times you are naturally gonna die."

Have To Tell
There's gonna be a long goodbye on this rainy hill. I can stand in rain in all kinds of temperature and control my shakes to be really quick tremors or giant quakers and baby when I do my quakes I could be the scenery in a blockbuster movie on the first night at the drive-in. The kind where the state troopers have to tell all the people stoppin on the side of the highway to move on and move on quickly and safely. Buckle up now. Buckle up for the greatest show on earth.

1.) "Let's live life in a light violet mist - that would be a great achievement."
2.) "It takes just shy of 600 miles on an east-west running interstate freeway to smoke 19 Camel filter cigarettes."
3.) "Neither of the above."

The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter
Then one night he found that Daisy had pierced holes in little Portia's ears for earrings. And another time a kewpie doll with feather skirts was on the mantlepiece when he came home, and Daisy was gentle and hard and and would not put it away. He knew, too, that Daisy was teaching the children the cult of meekness. She told them all about hell and heaven. Also she convinced them of ghosts and of haunted places. Daisy went to church every Sunday and she talked sorrowfully to the preacher of her own husband. And with her stubbornness she always took the children to the church, too, and they listened.

Had Taken
It was like the trip I had taken to Marrakech and every sandy dog I gazed upon would stare and then squint their eyes at me.

The Putrid Banks Of The Neches
The place was permeated by a sickly silence, interrupted from time to time by the odd angry outburst.
Its inhabitants would stare vacantly into space, plunged in a perpetual night-time darkness.
The light of day could not penetrate it.

Meet And Greet
I'm trying to get a "Meet And Greet" with either Les Moonves or Chuck Lorre for "Three And A Half Men" since I just found out that Charlie Sheen's fake age on his bio is only five years off of my fake age on MY bio.
Les Moonves only gave John Stamos 5 minutes.
Plus . . . Charlie almost looks MY age. This week. Oy.
