what is stuff?



it could be anything.......

from that discarded bottle cap on the curb, to the odd receipt slowly inching its way towards your car while you're filling up at the local petrol station.


my hope for this blog is that i find better homes for all this "stuff"-- such as rubbish (or better yet, recycling) bins-- while still having a bit of fun....... and probably fulfilling some deep eccentric need to make jokes about things like cans and bits of glass.



finding stuff in the great outdoors has turned me into a hunter extraordinaire (think general zaroff in connell's 1924, the most dangerous game). nothing is more pleasing than lighting upon a bit of colored string-- or an old toothbrush-- during a morning jog.


start looking today.
