A Graphically Stimulating Way To Show Large Numbers - An American Portrait


This image is made up of several thousands photos of the ends of stacked packs of cigarette. Check out this Chris Jordan site, with a dozen or more of these number-cruncher graphics about America's numbers. I thought that this could help me stop smoking or at least start counting!

Awesome! I may have to steal the breast augmentation photo for my blog. I'm on a bit of a boob kick.

Very cool find, Jacques.

Always loved this Dali painting. From Dali to daily bread with butts, whatever gets one thru. My only regret is supporting Philip More-us (Less-you).

Mango - shall I send you a picture of me for your blog? I have been feeling like a Boob or a Blob of late. Rarely Bob. The growth seems benign so I'm letting it sprout to see if it is something edible.

(When oh when will Camille or Mango come donate some more fine writes for us at the Blawg? Darned soloists!)
