Kusudama

The internet is a strange and wonderous thing.

Look what was sent to me from a cool friend I met on Facebook!

Holy crap - paper art!

A place for (some) stuff

Woo hoo!

One of the biggest fears I had in dealing with the mountain of stuff in the post below was what to do with all the VHS cassettes I had accumulated over the years and will NEVER watch due to changes in tech etc...

But I did a search for a way to deal with these, and actually found a place in San Francisco that _recycles_ them. Holy crap!

Man, I'm really happy about these guys:


Granted, they do charge, and it cost me one yuppie food stamp ($20) to get them to take both all of my VHS tapes and an old printer, but they said that they take out the toxic portions and dispose of them separately and then take the plastic and make things like rolly carts and other fun plastic things.

That is some weight off of my back, but my crusade against physical media continues!
