Metal objects found in the park, Part two.

[urbpan]

It appears to be an object hand-molded from aluminum foil.





What do you suppose it was used for...?

Please tell me you're kidding. Even square old me recognizes that.

This reminds me of a story the best man told at our rehearsal dinner-

His grandmother had come to visit him from out of state and they went to a local park. She started collecting pine cones off the ground for some craft project she was working on back home. When they got back to his place, she took the pine cones out and wrapped them in aluminum foil to protect them, and put them in her suitcase. He took her to the aiport and when she attempted to go through the x-ray machine, the security agent saw several oval-shaped metal objects. Her bags were immediately seized and she was whisked away for questioning, where it was revealved that security thought she was trying to smuggle hand grenades into the airport.

Ditto. I hear you can make them from apples, too. ;)

Lolacaust. I've seen 'em made out of carrots as well.

On occasion, when walking around late-night Eureka, we'd stumble upon needles stuck into random trees or fences. That's a bit more unsavory.

That's a quite unfair thing to be posting on what has been one of the most awful work-related days in recent memory.

Bleah. My first year in Boston I was excited about all the interesting objects to be found everywhere, and picked up a charred spoon (and went yikes! and dropped it).

My senior project involved found object art made with plastic stuff I found at Revere beach, including two syringes.

Yep, your standard aluminum marijuana pipe. Used to make them when I was a kid :).

I understand that most (if not all) of you probably don't agree with me here, but I'm a fan of the substance. Nothing at all like smoking the good ganja out in the woods. Its what the chemical was made for.

Though, they shouldn't have littered.

I deposited it into the trash for them. I think smoking is a perfectly acceptable use for a park, as long as you take care with your fire.
