The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

TWW now thinks he is a trapper


Above is a trap with a name like 'Better Rodent Trap' or something like that. The peas and beans have been a disaster this year. They grew but the rodents who ate them grew and multiplied. Last year we got a bunch of peas and beans but this year we have not been so lucky. With the hopes of salvaging his gardens TWW shed his animal rights values and started trapping right in the gardens. Above are some of the peas that actually made it to adolescence. Below is a trap at work. This time it got a mouse but usually it is a small gopher who met its mark. TWW hopes his contribution to natural selection will result in gophers who do not eat gardens.
