Okay so this is a post of silly photos. Shots I took and just couldn’t quite come up with something smart a$$ed to say about ‘em.
First there is the view of brand new pennies- pretty faux copper like metal. Copper is very expensive and so it has been watered down, if you will, with some other kinds of metal to make the “real” copper go further without costing so much. Like the fact that it is more valuable as metal than as a penny, just saying.
Okay now this is nice shot of some air and water, nice things for everyone to have…in case of emergency of course.
This is a shot of the Nielsen survey we got in the mail that I was gonna post and tell you all about us being this big fancy Nielsen family and junk, but I guess we just didn’t pass the addition. Yes the 2 dollars was for filling out the paperwork but WhateEVER happens, happens.
Alright that brings us to the last shot, this was a store I saw in a stripe center in Spring Texas and I said hey what a neat name, let’s go in and see what kind of junk they have. Ah well I suppose it was not such a good name after all cause all it was, was just a name on a closed and empty store.
ps: Its never too late to become a follower, just saying.

Photo-posts are good to do once in a while. You know the 'covers' or music send offs you buy by no-name artists of big-name groups? I'm thinking the Bizarre Bazaar would sell covers and send offs of those no name bands. Yep, very dollar store stuff...
I think you had it right
Here is my 2 cents worth
That face value only
All guess please remember to only use
the air and water stations we have Provided
while outside the compounds of your cabin
A third and fourth grade acrylic paper print art class
How many Survey’s do you have to fill out for the two dollars?

Desk49, Could you repeat that, I'm not quite sure I'm following!
On the last follow, follower, followed, follows thing I posted.
R.I.T.F.L.M.*.O.
I do love this picture collection!
The sign is a riot-
Never thought of brayer monoprinting... Got plexiglas, paint n a brayer- need ideas n time-
Already got about 20 oil bgs waiting for unicorns waiting around...
Made 2 monoprints with ink on a press in college- with sharks n shipwreck theme- someday I'll get big enough frames.
So many projects- so little free time!
Interesting to notice the variety of items put up for sale on ebay. Goes to show people buy and sell virtually anything.
I'd definitely check out the bizarre bazaar! lol. And I know I just saw those pennies not long ago for the first time...they're kinda neat and I didn't know about the faux copper though, that's neat!
Those pennies look so strange!
And air and water are God's gift to us!
Love your papers, they look almost marbled, but I think I need a closer look at the cards you made with them
Too bad that store closed. Looks like someplace I would like to poke around.
Paige, a reply I posted to another of your posts is here. I can't figure out how that happened?
Loved the store name :)

It's crazy Eliza, how tech-no goes, err doesn't go
IS it considered spamming when one leaves more than one comment on one's own blog?
I think not :-)
Listen to this Me, I was just over at the Funster's visiting the button links she has in her side bar and low and behold, there I was. So I couldn't miss out on leaving a comment for Me, err us :-)
Done. I'm a follower.
Just out of curiosity I googled Bizarre Bazaar: http://www.bizarrebazaar.com/
Adult novelties and "smoking" paraphenalia. :)
Love a pics post, Paige. Which reminds me, I need to post some pics...
The pennies always make me uneasy to look at them. Did you know that it's a crime to melt down US pennies because the value of the metal is more that 1cent?

Paige, I just love your crazya$$ posts. These pics and your thoughts of them are priceless (pun intended).
My son started collecting coins and silver a couple months ago and I'm amazed at all he's found in our house that's actually worth something. For instance, I have a huge "memory" box that contains...a lot of junk. He dug through it and found a 1925 silver dollar. He asked me if he could have it. Well sure, said I, it's only a dollar. A few minutes later he comes to tell me he investigated and discovered the silver dollar is worth $350. Say what?! Meanwhile, he's hitting flea markets and buying up silver like it's going out of style. One day it will and he'll be rich. He's already made double what he spent by selling a couple silver bars on EBay. The boy, 13 years old, is an enterprising genius.
Sorry for the long reply - should just do my own post. :)
This was a nice post, love that Bizarre Bazaar :)
You've made me remember to take my silly photos one time and add them all up in a post.
