Human Pencils
Pencils made from the carbon of human cremains. 240 pencils can be made from an average body of ash – a lifetime supply of pencils for those left behind.
Each pencil is foil stamped with the name of the person. Only one pencil can be removed at a time, it is then sharpened back into the box causing the sharpenings to occupy the space of the used pencils. Over time the pencil box fills with sharpenings – a new ash, transforming it into an urn. The window acts as a timeline, showing you the amount of pencils left as time goes by.
That’s one way to wash a car
Random Question of the Day
News seems to be tainted today. It’s quite obvious that Fox News leans heavily towards the conservative side, politically. And it’s quite obvious that MSNBC leans pretty liberally. We know that many newspapers lean one way or the other. Heck, many out there feel that the entire media has a liberal bias altogether.
So if someone to obtain news from an unbiased news source, where should he or she go? Or, is it even possible to find unbiased news?
