The Wovel


http://www.thegreenhead.com
Thinking of a time a couple years ago when my friend bought a wovel--the snow shovel on a wheel. It was one of those "what were you thinking" moments.

He was all about setting it up, but the instructions were in german, and he lost his patience. So he returned it (for a $60 shipping fee), and I never had the chance to see him look like a fool.

It looks like it would make a great conversation piece as home decor. "What is that--an Amish buggy wheel; a 19th century tool?" "No, it's a wovel."

New Orleans' Six Flags

New Orlean's Six Flags

As a follow-up to the posting about Disney reworking their Disneyland Amusement Park, I figured I share a gallery that was shared with me...

A couple weeks ago, my friend Brent turned me on to these photographs of the very dilapidated New Orleans' Six Flags. Very impressive photos! This could very well be a theme park in itself--art, graffiti, grunge, industrial, etc...

Eerily silent in the forsaken amusement park, the Cool Zone is creepy; it’s like an ominous omen of what is to come in the forlorn and forgotten abandoned Six Flags in New Orleans. Photo #1 by © lostlosangeles / facebook.com/lostlosangeles
