With the economy in the tank, everyone in America has a bit more (or too much) free time. For example, here is a guy who took 10,115 thumbtacks and made an incredibly realistic portrait of Cal Ripken. The overall project took 30 hours and all those thumbtacks cost $400, I’d say it was well worth it. Enjoy!

The Slanch Report has started an online petition asking the MLB Network to air the Dock Ellis no-hitter he threw on June 12, 1970 against the San Diego Padres. The moment was a seminal piece of baseball history and is certainly worthy of being rerun.
Please join us in this cause and sign the petition below so we can all share in this special and fantastic moment of baseball history. THANKS!
SIGN THE PETITION HERE! AND PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND PASS THIS ALONG!

$400??? Not worth it.
He’s sort of cute… And has a source of income and an artistic soul. Sold!
In my opinion, copying pictures is one of the lowest forms of art. Exceptions can be made if the materials involved take skill and manipulation(not in this case). This is a solid B- in a high school art class and not much else. Southerner, there are lots of real artists out there who make money, you can buy way better.
Oh no, I would never buy that piece. I was talking about being sold on the guy… And sarcastically, anyway. I promise to just give you money first, should I ever decide to start collecting push=pin art.
