23 January

Hog Heaven

Several days ago, I introduced Piggy, Ted's disgusting pork-eating piggy bank (click here if you dare).
Today, The Wife kindly scheduled a family outing to Ikea (a report on the divorce proceedings will follow shortly).
While there, amid the furniture, carpets, photo frames, kitchen gadgets, cheap batteries and hot dogs,
we were able to visit about 400 of Piggy's closest relatives. But we were steadfast ....
one Piggy is enough for this family.

Really cool! I think you should have bought at least one for company for the other piggy!

LOL no comment! :)

Hehe like it

Great shot - I think your red piggy at home would welcome a green piggy for
company. ;) Do you find you always spend about six times as much as you intend
in Ikea? I think it's something they put in their air conditioning! ;)

OMG, what a freak out. A much fun shot.
Gary Winters24-Jan-2005 07:45
This little piggy went to market (Ikea), and so did that one, and that one, and that one, and that one, and that one, and that one, and that one, ... LOL

Funny shot with nice exposure
Guest 24-Jan-2005 02:51
So wonderfully colorful,Jim!!! I like how you have some of the green ones in the last row-but not all green. Funny caption too! hehe
Neal Nye24-Jan-2005 01:37
Hideous little creations, but they certainly are colorful. I like how you lined up that one column so precisely.
Karen Leaf24-Jan-2005 00:59
ROFL! I am enjoying your sense of humor Jim!
Lori Rolfe23-Jan-2005 23:28
just look at all these innocent looking little cannibles.. I feel like they're trying to take over the world... great shot though
Guest 23-Jan-2005 22:52
That's funny! I have two of these at home. Free birthday gifts from IKEA to my kids.
Guest 23-Jan-2005 22:44
Very funny :) I've been wanting to take my camera into our local grocery store, but I'm afraid the security will throw me out! Great idea and fun photo!!!

I feel being watched! They do not seem very happy either, look at their ears. What did you tell them? Nice image, love the colors in this image, the bright green in the background suits this well.

Really scary!! We went to IKEA on Jan 2nd.... not really a good idea! I'll take the camera next time...
Gayle P. Clement23-Jan-2005 19:46
Great shot!

Just brilliant. IKEA really is the place to test a relationship, I agree.
