I read in a link from somebody's blog today that a major manufacturer of pink flamingo lawn ornaments has stopped making them and is shutting down the business. It was a US company; and here I assumed they were Chinese sweatshop specials!!! (Somehow, I just don't think there will ever be a shortage, and I just can't quite see them becoming collector's items. Who knows, though?)
When I googled "pink flamingo" and clicked "news" ... it seems to be a well-covered story...
