Frankenstein Revisited

Last year, in my post entitled "Frankenstein," I talked about how my dad, Cho, is the master of finding new uses for old junk. Recently, my sister emailed me a photo of Cho's latest creation and it is the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

Here's what she wrote:

! I had to share this picture with you. Dad's keyboard lamp broke awhile ago. Then, he broke the foot of the small lamp. So... what does the ingenious man do.... put it together so that he has a tall, standing lamp. It's the strangest thing... but it works.

Man, those people never throw anything away! I would have thrown both away and purchased a new lamp ages ago.... they're the true environmentalists. They fix.... salvage.... they don't use the clothes dryer... grow their own veggies..... no a/c.... reuse everything to the point of extreme.

If you look carefully, you can see that the broken yellow lamp is not only strapped to the broken black lamp's base, but that the electric wire from the black lamp is running through it. Crazy.

Time for another intervention.
