I've done some pipe fitting when I put in a gas fireplace once and a fair amount of amateur plumbing but even so I'm always afraid pipes are going to leak. No matter how you sweat them, use plumbers compound or silicon tape--I'm never sure they'll be leakproof. Some people worry about leaving the stove on, I worry about pipes leaking. Just seeing a picture of pipes makes me a little anxious.

So classic and etheral.<BR/><BR/>Now don't shit, but the thing that really spoke to me in the photo was the USA stamp in the rusted pipe. <BR/><BR/>To me, it symbolized the rusting and crumbling of America in today's world. <BR/><BR/>**runs off to hide from the maddening masses**<BR/><BR/>Hey, it's art!

So it leads me to the course, the path - the connections. If that were a road instead of a pipe, where would it go? Also, I can't tell from the photo that it's gas; it looks like water pipes to me - and, without the rust and with no drips coming from it, they look strong and ready to go. Interesting, huh? Sometimes you really do need color to capture the whole meaning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-1160364868313271902006-10-08T23:34:00.000-04:002006-10-08T23:34:00.000-04:00What comes to my mind?
