BBC News - US search for survivors after lethal storms kill dozens, Also, a maximum card with cars intentionally stuck into the ground by LORD and others: The Cadillac Ranch, in Amarillo, Texas, USA

BBC News - US search for survivors after lethal storms kill dozens
It's awful when Mother Nature, or The Supreme Screenwriter (LORD?) decides to create such devastation...

It's another thing when LORD and others decide to stick [junk/vintage] cars into the ground, as an art form, questionable as it may be for some...


"Cadillac Ranch is a public art installation and sculpture in Amarillo, TexasU.S. It was created in 1974 by Chip Lord, Hudson Marquez and Doug Michels, who were a part of the art group Ant Farm, and it consists of what were (when originally installed during 1974) either older running used or junk Cadillac automobiles, representing a number of evolutions of the car line (most notably the birth and death of the defining feature of early Cadillacs; the tail fin) from 1949 to 1963, half-buried nose-first in the ground, at an angle corresponding to that of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.[1]"

My cyberguests: thank you for taking time and mental energy to leave a comment!
Your ongoing feedback is always appreciated.
If you never return, it is my fault for boring (?) you.
If you return, it is your merit to have discovered a blog worth exploring and following. :)
