i found it at the south hadley olde tag sale-e on a beautiful sunny, hot-up the back of my jeanjacket may day. as adam described it, "fat things trying to sit in the shade."

we realized that once we have even three peso to rub together, we will be decorating the entire apartment with things like old bedpans and rusty turkish cigarette tins.

he bought a beautiful, spooky child's piano. it really does look like one of those clock-chime dollhouse "plays by itself when the wind is right" sort of things.

the best thing ever was a stand of what seemed to be old junky trunks. i opened a small, peat green minitrunk and saw an array of mysteriouslydecayed packets, and then realized it was a real WWII first aid kit. with boxed-up boric acid and curious little glass jars. for teeth? i have no idea.

but it's one of the coolest things i've ever seen. it's a thinker. how did it come back? why? was it ever really in Europe, on a beach, or just a memento from the Gainsville base?

i bought it for ten dollars.

That piano and first aid kit are great. You two are like property masters for future films by the Brothers Quay! I saw Amelie for the first time the other night and the greenish hues in it made me think of your lovely photos.

great bargain -- ten bucks for priceless relics of history. it's inconceivable.

i just saw your website, the link you posted in sgcanada and your photography is GORGEOUS. i love your work. do you have a photographer, or do you take all the pics yourself and work with them in photoshop? they're really creative.
