Why are we farting around and bailing out failed enterprises anyway. They fail because too much $$ has been taken out of them until the kitty runs out. And whose responsibility is that? Not the public that’s for sure. So why bail them out?

Instead, let’s #Nationalise the bloody paupers. With #NotForProfit status, these same #FailedEnterprises would survice and provide much needed jobs and supply independence to the Australian economy. Of course, such a move would mean the #Rats have no where to go but jump ship and look for #scraps elsewhere — good ridance. Still, it would not be a bad message to put out there: In Australia, if you cannot run a business and keep it afloat long term, well, we don’t want your investment. In turn it would provide a very reliable market for future long term investments rather than current speciulative short term pillaging exercises.

That’s my take. And all of it is feasible in a Capitalist system for any Constitutional Democracies.

Een nieuw dak. Een stapeltje van de 100 jaar oude daklatten van het oude dak gered van de container.

De oude latjes worden de basisstructuur van een werk dat al lang in m’n hart ligt te wachten.

Blij met deze vondst; het maken is begonnen :)

I have been wanting to play with these weld bends and bending my handwriting. There is an old neon tradition of "block out tubing" that was actually spliced in so that there would be no paint to chip.

I like the idea of using darker colors as the "block out" glass for all the connections. Its certainly an extra challenge, but I am liking the look.

I am gonna be bending neon at Brooklyn Glass's Hot Glass Cold Beer on Saturday. I get most of my neon tubing from there (they import from Italy) and I think this would be nice in a nice warm white and non coated cobalt blue. It took me 1, 3/4 hours to make "CHOOSE" out of scraps I had (whoops, got the whites mixed up :) )

My mom used to preach this to me when I was in high school. It changed my life... but I still sometimes feel like I can delude myself into feeling happy about a crappy situation.

meestal heb ik het meest plezier als ik begin met een plan en me vervolgens laat afleiden door snippers en left-overs die ik in mijn ooghoek zie. Zoals vandaag.
