More Dexter posters

Christina Ricci in a series that seems to fit her character, and her figure, quite well

This woman is insane and highly detestable, thus very effective.
A jock version of Sandra Bernhard. Nice poster, weird TV.

Boardwalk Empire Poster [11x17] - Captures Atlantic City in the heydays of Prohibition

Do we care anymore? Did we care to begin with? Ashton Kutcher? That actually makes sense.
The title of the show never seemed appropriate for the characters.

The Landfillart Project – Turning Hubcaps into Works of Art

The Landfillart Project – Turning Hubcaps into Works of Art:

The Landfillart Project is an artistic endeavor that tries to get people thinking about the amount of trash they generate, by repurposing hubcaps as unique artworks. The idea was thought up by Ken Marquis, from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, who has spent the last three years convincing other artists from all the US states and 52 foreign countries to give old hubcaps the artistic treatment. Ken got the idea to use hubcaps while attending an auto show near Allentown, where a collection of 41 rusted wheel covers inspired and got him thinking they could be repurposed. He bought the entire cache for $82, and just a few weeks later acquired 1,000 more, from a collector in Quakertown.

`You want me to find a hubcap in my own country and pay for that, and you want me to pay for (the materials to make) this piece of great art, and then you want me to ship it to you at my expense, and then you want me to gift it to you? Am I understanding you correctly? OK, yeah, I’m in.’” “Artists get it”, Ken says.
