    I’ll take both, please. Then I can be a keyboardist for an eighties cover band.

      Those aren’t cans, Sparky. That’s two pictures of one can, taken at slightly different angles.

        I think it’s from two slightly different angels.

        The Cherubim can be so flighty and unreliable, yet creative; but the Seraphim have limited tech experience despite their attention to detail.

      Sorry, Dave, these look like pretty ordinary-sized cans to me, and if I recall correctly, the eighties cover band wanted giant ones.

    No, can’t. But I am intrigued by the objects in the picture. Does his zippo lighter have any flint?

      The lighter represents man’s inhumanity to can.

        I sensed that was coming. And the glasses? Our myopic view of the world? Or did Funky Monkey post this?

          No offense, Monkey. I love the spectacles. I was going to make a red mokey can joke now, but I’m afraid of poo flingin’.

          I was going to say that the eyeglasses represent blind stupidity, but now I’m afraid of the poo-flinging machine. Especially if it involves fire.

        Gonna do my very best and it ain’t no lie
        If you put me to the test, if you let me try

        Take a cans on me
        (That’s all I ask of you honey)
        Take a cans on me

        Take a cans on me
        If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
        If you’ve got no place to go, if you’re feeling down
        If you’re all alone when the pretty birds have flown
        Honey I’m still free
        Take a cans on me

    Two Dew or not two Dew, that is the question
    Whether ’tis Fanta in the can or 7up
    The Coke or Pepsi of outrageous choices
    Or to take arms against a sea of bubbles
    And by opposing, end them. To switch to juice–

      No more; and by juice, to say we shed
      The belching and the thousand unnatural sounds
      The soda is heir to? Tis a consumption
      Devoutly to be consumed. To juice, to drink.
      To drink perchance to slake. Ay there’s the rub.
      For in that can of Dew, what slake may come?

    Is that Korean writing on that paper? Is the can special as it was from the old North Korean regime of Kim Jong Il?

    It’s clearly a conceptual piece. The angles, the Korean writing, the menacing position of the lighter juxtaposed with the intellectual connotation conveyed by the glasses. It’s all about can’s inhumanity to can.

    There once was a canner quite canny
    Who one morning said to his granny:
    “A canner can can anything that he can
    But a canner can’t can a can, can he?”

        How could she have hams monkey? She didn’t own a sweater.

        Unless on the 7th day god invented “fig leaf hams.”

        But that would just be silly.

    I once had a friend who was Hugh.
    He nicked a half can of the Dew.
    Good deal he thought.
    And took a big draught.
    But the chew in the dew made him spew.

      When he was little, one of my son’s favorite Dr. Suess books was The Tough Coughs As He Ploughs the Dough. He had it memorized and thought it was hilarious when I’d mispronounce a word when I was tired and on autopilot. Little brat.

    Dave and ferret tribe (DAFT), I’ve been holding this punch for 48 hours. Put on this helmet, and all these little helmets. Brace yourselves! (This does not mean to get wire and buckles and fix your own teeth, by the way) Punchity Punch Punch!

    Good Morning, Alcoa!
