Monday cheat

Due to an unexpected, unscheduled, and unwanted trip to Columbus and back on Sunday, I'm calling in a cheat and linking to this AFP article on building from trash.
This is taking recycling to an extreme and it's really kinda cool. There are many "green" builders who recycle, but this builder actually creates " intricate floor mosaics with wood scraps, kitchen counters from ivory-colored bones and roofs out of license plates."
All the little pieces-parts that would have ordinarily (even for green builders) ended up in a landfill.
