Kitschy Pink Flamingo Faces Extinction

I think Kitschy Pink Flamingo Faces Extinction is one of the best headlines of all time. Apparently Union Products, the manufacturer of the pink plastic flamingoes that, were at one time apparently very common, but I personally have never seen on an actual lawn, has fallen on hard times, and closed its only factory. Now, I kind of want one. (According to the LA Times, they are only sold in pairs, so I'll have to get two.)

saw this on boingboing today -- like you, i now feel absolutely *compelled* to get a pair (which, incidentally, i have seen actually, truly, on lawns. just gives you an idea of how ancient i am...)
