Left & right




These Art Deco bookends from French Cab remind me of politics today, where polarisation seems to be the best way of describing how the future might be. In Thailand we're undergoing a similar experiment with this view, so Americans don't need to think they're having all the fun.
Some of these beauties started life as mascots (hood ornaments), (the pelicans and the kangaroos), whereas the playful kittens and the non-speaking toucans probably just never thought they'd get on, so beginning life as bookends was probably appropriate. Perhaps there's a lesson in that for all politicians; if they don't work together, they'll end up on the shelf.
