one day while i was working at the locale wal-mart in the warhouse. i was staking pallets full of toys and this was during the christmas season, so there was crap loads of boxes filled with toys. while i was carelessly tossing boxes to n fro, some of the boxes started singing. Thinking i was having a timid flashback or maybe some side affects from my new medication i had no-idea what it was. Out of curiosity and hoping i wasn,t tripping out at work again(that was an interesting day) i opened the box and saw an a tickle me elmo doll ans then realized that there were three staked pallets of this latest and most dreadful version of the doll. At that moment i realized how powerful elmo's influence was and shuddered at a vision of elmo's power in the not so distant futuer.(above)

anecdote aside, this picture, i have to admit, was quite challenging. since i had nothing but and HB mechanical pencil and the little white eraser at the end of it, thanks to the nursing staff confiscating all my other wooden pencils(another patient could harm themselves with them, go figure?)
