Oh I might be having a little stupid moment here, but how does the hundred dollar bills make the pattern up? since they're all put side by side in perfect rows? I guess the pattern is just added after? Or could I line all my millions of cash (gee wish) up too and get the same picture emerge? Now...if everyone just start sending me money I can start trying :P $100 bills only please :))

Well, that's one way to start the day. I think I'll go call Ikea and say THANK YOU now. At least they're trying.

My five year old twins: That's a lot of cameras! (handguns)
That's a lot of trash!
That's a lot of Pepsi!
That's a BIG eye!
That's a lot of wood! (paper bags)
That's a lot of bananas! (uniforms)

Seeing the number of gun-related deaths from a year spelled out in pistols? Truly sobering.

Seeing the quantity of Benjies we're hemorrhaging into Iraq every hour? Absolutely infuriating.

Seeing a can of V8 next to a can of Dr. Pepper? Yuk! YukyukyukyukYUCK!
