I did a photo shoot a few years ago. I smashed a Singer touch and sew sewing machine with a sledge hammer. (Singer touch and sew sewing machines were probably the most hated sewing machine ever made) Then I wrote up a fake craigslist ad for it and posted it on the sewing repair forum. That fake ad got posted on Craigslist all over the country. Some how I had CL emails from all kinds of weird. But it was a lot of fun. The funniest email was from some jackleg preacher in Utah who tried to convince me Obama was some kind of religious thing... what ever. Then people lifted the pictures of the crunched machine and put them on their avatars for awhile. Some repair guy put it on his face book page and said don’t smash it bring it to us. I should see if it’s still in the garage and take it over to them... The whole things was monitored out... heavy moderation.... no more forum... too much moderation overall. A group of us broke off and made our own forum. It’s Victorian sweatshop forum for those of you into quilting and vintage sewing machines.
I'm not lost. I'm exploring.
