Hire this guy to fix the economy! (Obama in a Bottle)
HOW did he do that? Seriously? Does he put the pieces into the bottle and then assemble it once it's inside?





An Indian artist Basvaraju S. Gowda holds a 2.5 liter glass container, left, in which he has placed a six inch long and four inch wide framed photograph of U.S. President-elect Barack Obama and a ten liter container, right, with a Christmas tree inside on the eve of Christmas in Bangalore, India, Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2008.

Merry Christmas to you too Basvaraju

1. I love that stuff. He rolled up the picture and constructed the frame inside the bottle.
Each side of the frame was put in individually through the top.

2. It's magic
I.F., I taught him how to do it. He uses magic and snow fairies.

5. He trains ants inside the bottle to paint the picture & carpenter ants to build the frame
Actually, he most likely builds the bottle around the framed picture. Glass blowers have done this "magic" trick for centuries, mostly putting wooden ships in bottles....or bottles around the ships, that is.

11. I'll see what I can do
and we'll have to make sure that we load their bottle with ants, only they'll have to be red fire ants, hungry ones.

6. That guy is the kid on The Matrix....
....who bent the spoon. "You can't put the picture in the bottle, that is impossible. So, you have to realize the truth.... there is no bottle. Then you will see it's not the picture in the bottle, but you!'

10. So I have this libertarian friend....
... who suddenly, two months after the election has decided to investigate this man the rest of the country. "So tell me about Obama's policy on ..... well, everything?"

I told him, "The only thing you need to know .... EVERYONE .... yes, even you .... get a pony ... EVERYONE."

"Huh? I dont get it."

Humor is often wasted on the unintelligent. :)
