Wow. Check it out - you can actually buy that origami boulder using Paypal.

It's sort of tempting. Gotta do something with all that money I used to spend on alcohol...

I really is really tempting....I actually got in a big argument about it on my other forum. I kinda want one though...The best part (if you actually read the whole site) is that the "artist" writes a haiku on the inside of the boulder....but then proceeds to tell you that if you open it you have ruined the art!! lol

I'm convinced that it is art though (no really!) think about it you have this silly ball of paper on your desk in a pretty little stand...and you know that there is a poem inside but you aren't allowed to read it....

So do I go for the bamboo stand or just the performance art? I just can't decide!!!!

*I actually am really really really tempted to buy one*

Oh and did you guys read the "letters from dumb dumbs" page? That is really the funniest part.

I withdraw my dare. That's the sort of thing that makes my friends' parents wish I wouldn't hang out with their kids. And I'm 35 years old.

If it were me, though, and I really was going to buy one, I'd go for the balled-up haiku. There is a sort of a comic profundity/laughing Budda aspect to that idea.
