man-plants-guitar-shaped-forest

Located in the fertile agricultural region of Argentina’s ‘Pampas’ is a guitar shaped forest made up of over 7,000 cypress and eucalyptus trees. At over a kilometer in length (2/3 of a mile) the guitar shaped forest is quite visible for passing planes and satellites above. While it’s sheer size and scale is impressive as a piece of land art, the story of how it came to be is even more touching.

Mayor Robert “Bobbie” Tufts is calling the shots in Dorset, Minn., a small community near Park Rapids.

First agenda item? Importing more juice boxes.

Snooping on mail just got easier

Spray some “X-Ray Spray” on the side of a sealed envelope and watch in amazement as the paper becomes semi-transparent. The effect last about 30 seconds and leaves no mark behind. Buy here and go get your mail tampering on!
