The WORST Valentines Day gift ever!

I was on a flight this week and while perusing through the SkyMall magazine I noticed this item.http://www.signals.com/signals/Item_...12_ps_srm.html

Take a closer look at the Birch tree and you will notice the names carved into the bark. You can have the tree personalized (vandalized) with you and your partners names carved into the bark......how beautiful is that?

I realize this is just a drawing and not of course real, but it sends a message to the public that this would somehow be okay. The company "Signals.com" should know better as well.

Would anybody who likes birds or nature scenery even want to buy this crap?

Why yes, they would, and I did. My daughter-in-law used to own a print and frame shop and that was one of the prints that I used to like to give as a wedding present. Cheers, it's all OK, just a nostalgic print for a little romance.

do they really go out and carve up a tree? or do they just photoshop it in?

nobody is going out and carving up any trees for this.

Or is it the exploitation of chickadees that bothers you?

Bigger fish to fry...Tupper Lake development proposal. Now that's really scarey. I have to agree, those prints aren't something that I would consider beautiful art.
