[IBC] bonsai in the comics
"For Better of for Worse," one of the best of today's "comics"
has a bonsai reference this morning. One of the main characters -- a writer -- is on assignment in Japan and he and his co-worker are staying at a Japanese businessman's hotel, with its tiny, ultra-efficient rooms (NOT one of the coffin hotels, where your room is MRI size, but still small). The last panel reads: "Now I know why the Japanese invented bonsai." Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Our life is frittered away by detail . . . . Simplify! Simplify. -- Henry David Thoreau - Walden ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Evergreen Gardenworks++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

I trust a few of us will point out to her that the Japanese did not invent
bonsai. Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train." Robert Lowell (1917-1977) |
