Junk mail turned into sculpture

Why didn't I think of that? Well, it's too late now, I've stopped all unadressed junk mail.

 

A whole new way to consider junk mail. Mimi has been known to make purchases from the catalogs that come in the mail. This causes more companies to send catalogs, more catalogs, more purchases, and so on. Our waste disposal system provides recycling for such catalogs, and I collect the catalogs in boxes to deliver to the recycling facility. If we were to try something such as the lady in the UK, I foresee complications. The stack of catalogs gets to almost 2 feet high each month, and growing. That could add up to nearly 24 feet in a year. That's almost 2 stories high, in 50 years it could be taller than the Sears Tower in Chicago. One might need a building permit for such a structure, you'd likely need a fence around it to keep kids from climbing up on it. It would need proper lighting to prevent some airplane from hitting it. Pretty soon you'd be getting calls from radio stations wanting to install transmitters on top. Where could it all end. As Jackie Gleason would say,"someday Alice, POW, to the moon". All because Mimi wanted something from a mail in catalog.

Haha, wow Tom, you put a good deal of thought into that one. I actually don't think I get enough junk mail just yet to do that with. Mostly credit card offers and such, and we shred those. It is a crafty idea though!

 

Jeez, Tom! I love your thoughts about the junk mail.

We've got a movement who's trying to stop all unadressed commercial deliveries. Now we have to register for NOT getting any, but the movement wants to reverse that. I've signed their petition. One day I received so much junkmail I measured the thickness. Nearly an inch! That's a lot of trees and pollution.
