Village Pump

Description

It's the year 2012. AD or BCE? Who cares? What has changed, really? Sure, we have fighter jets and nukes now. We've put man on the moon. We have infallible maps of the entire planet, machines as smart as people, and weather forecasts better than any quack sorcery. But what does what matter? We still hate, love, kill, heal. We have petty squabbles and grand debates, scientific leaps and bounds, but it all comes down to the people. Gossipers by a village pump, children being relived of their quarters by a machine - what's the difference? Some things really are eternal.

This one has a funny story behind it. We were taking photos at the Cleveland Dam and somebody noticed a Coke machine. Everybody crowded round to get something to drink - except me. So I decided to take a photo. "Village Pump" seems like a pretty accurate name.

If anybody in this photo wants it taken down, just let me know.

The Coca-Cola logo is a trademark of the Coca-Cola Corperation that unfortunately wasn't used with permission, but honestly I think they'll enjoy the publicity.
