STREET MATTRESS

Back in 1997 I coughed up the dough for a handmade/custom mattress for my bed. While I've never regretted the decision to fork over close to a grand for my Verlo, I could not for the life of me tell you what on earth I did with my trusty old mattress. Had StreetMattress.com -- aka The Mattress Trash Authority -- been around when I tossed my old bedding, I most assuredly would have been encouraged to document the event for prosperity's sake.

While you and I may justifiably think of a discarded mattress as nothing more than common rubbish, the folks over at StreetMattress.com have developed an over-the-top appreciation for the art of spotting mattresses in some of the most interesting places. Check out StreetMattress.com, where the pictures are just as entertaining as the comments associated with each.

Cool site indeed. Perhaps I could find some of Limelight's 80's Club Kids and take James St. James along for an evening of mattress strolling. We could sleep on the them and call it performance art!
