"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 7, 2012 at 3:20am: I think I see the first TrashPo-Litzer of 2012: "Shopping List with Annotations" by Richard Canard. Shall I give to The Committe?

Comment by DKeys on January 6, 2012 at 10:21pm: Got this great Envelope from Richard Canard in a recycled 'regifted' envelope originally addressed to "Richard" and crossed out. The back says "Dare Ms Diane K, Found the enclosed in the street today in front of my mailbox. " it is a fabulous page torn from a daily planner. An excellent Christmas shopping list. Richard always personalizes things like this that he sends with editorial comments. I love the magical sigil he drew-very ominous like the tiki doll on that one Brady Bunch episode

Comment by Jennifer Jones (JJalltheway) on January 6, 2012 at 8:43pm: Boy! That sounds like just thing I could use right now. It looks very cold in your photo Erni, time for warm baked goods.

Comment by DKeys on January 6, 2012 at 8:11pm: I'm assuming bee sting cake involves honey? Looks delicious

Comment by DKeys on January 6, 2012 at 4:34pm: That really is amazing-to even think up such a thing!

Glad you're doing well Erni, your presence is always missed around here

Comment by Alicia Starr on January 6, 2012 at 4:13pm: Stumbled on the Nebraska Stonehenge on a trip to South Dakota. You can imagine the surprise and confusion. 'Are we in Texas?' It was a real treat.

Comment by DKeys on January 6, 2012 at 1:28pm: Hi you guys-great to see you Erni, I was wondering where you'd gone too!

Came across this guy who makes trashbag monsters fueled by subway air

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 6, 2012 at 8:10am: Hello Sloan and Erni, anie and DK! Cadilac Ranch in Texas...and how about the Auto-Stonehenge in Nebraska?

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 6, 2012 at 4:36am: Hi Erni, Happy New Year. Have you been away? I came across Cadillac Ranch by chance, had forgotten about it. I didn't know they had spray painted it.
