The Real and Horrific Cost of Bottled Water

2 Litre Water Bottle Produces As Much Light As 50 Watt Lightbulb

Buy $20 Bottled Water to Build African Water Wells. Or Just Send Them $20 and Skip the PLASTIC! (:

Charity :: Water: Here’s an incredibly “gifted” idea to help bring potable water to the millions in Africa. Buy a $20 bottle of water and the entire proceeds goes to the Charity :: Water. Ah that’s so cute!

I’m all for the symbolism and what not but it seems to me that the amount of resources consumed to produce a snazzy bottle of Yuppie water would be better utilized on the ground in Africa.

Why not send a small flyer printed on recycled paper in the shape of a bottle with a small message?

"The only difference between the Republican and Democratic parties is the velocities with which their knees hit the floor when corporations knock on their door. That's the only difference." - Ralph Nader

“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group.” - F.D.R.

Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination.

Devour old films, news films, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows.

Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent.

Don't bother concealing your thievery-celebrate it if you feel like it.In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said; "It's not where you take things from - It's where you take them to".
