I know you will find that title funny, but the title is not a joke. It is not that funny after all. Think about it. What is discarded rubbish for us, is may a treasure for others if they could get hold of it. That old battered bug is a new car for native people who live in the in the building behind. They hammer a coke can flat to put over a rust spot. There are tires of four different brands on the vehicle, but it drives. It enables the owner to transport goods for the people of the jungle community. Bananas and Papayas and handicrafts are driven to the city in exchange for whatever is needed in the little village.
I was thinking of busting the colors, but decided against it because the muted colors seem just the right ambiance for that old working horse.
