Hedgehog Obesity
I'm very concerned.
OK, so I'm not very concerned.
But it was a nice change of pace from the (may I borrow from Fr. Neuhaus here?) "overweening and preening" Earth stuff on the tube.

Green decorating tips from the Merchandise Mart?
Throwing your couch away is not green. Reupholster.
Sending decent furniture to a landfill is not green good. Putting it on the curb for your neighbors to take is laudable. People appreciate it. They (i.e. we) do, they really, really do.

Found objects make fabulous decorative pieces. Be sure to wash the cooties off. Use bleach if necessary.
It's a sad day when we need the TV news to tell us that miscellaneous junk has that special je ne sais quoi. Driftwood. We had a nice big piece of driftwood back in the 60's. I'm looking for something a little more 'cutting edge.' Maybe...maybe a taxidermied hedgehog. A nice obese hedghog. They're going to be dropping dead from complications, right?
