it depends on the way that you see

This cemetery had one of the few expressly-designated paupers areas that I have ever seen. Most of the markers in that part of the cemetery were non-existent and the simple concrete markers on the rest of them had eroded to the point where the graves were mostly just marked by pieces of rebar.

I have no idea where this was taken, other than “somewhere north-ish of Dallas.” But since it was taken in 2008, I am fairly confident that it is now the location of some sort of shopping center or housing development. And surely there’s a Starbucks nearby. That’s the way it goes, when you are north-ish of Dallas.

I don’t know why I fell for it. He billed it as “a quick trip to Home Depot.” I know better. I know the “quick trip to Home Depot” is mythical. Like unicorns. Or leprechauns.

But, I went along.

And, during this “quick trip” I had time to:
1. Play Angry Birds until I got bored. (Damn birds.)
2. Download Pic Grunger.
3. Take a picture of the fan display.
4. Grunge it up real good in Pic Grunger.
5. Email it to myself.
6. Go back to Angry Birds.
