You're "bacon" me hungry!

haha...actually...if you're making me anything, it would be disgusted.  So, a dream of mine came true today.  Yes, they have finally made of sculpture of Kevin Bacon....out of bacon. 

I'm actually giggling as I type this.  haha.  It's so bizarre and gross and I LOVE it!!  The 'work of art' is called Bacon Kevin Bacon or simply BKB.  The artist, Mike Lahue, is selling this masterpiece on eBay.  The current bid is $510 (US).  A little much for me.  I guess the good thing here is that the proceeds go to charity.  Here's what the eBay profile page says about this pies de resistance:

"This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the most delicious piece of Bacon-on-bacon themed pop art ever created.  Whether you are a fan of American film icon Kevin Bacon, animal protein art enthusiast or just a lover of bacon, the undisputed king of all meats - Bacon Kevin Bacon is a must have."

"Don’t worry, BKB has been well lacquered and will stay tasty for generations to come so stop listening to your inner-doubt, put in a bid and make every person you will ever know jealous of your legendarily epic greatness."

...."animal protein art enthusiast"?  LOL!  I wouldn't consider myself one...until today!  I guess the thing's not edible, which is a total downside.  The medium of choice - bacon and bacon bits, and you can't even take a nibble.  It makes me curious on how he got it all to stay together?  

So, the eBay page contiues to say, "Owning Bacon Kevin Bacon will automatically make you the coolest person you will ever know, a champion of the underground meat sculpture movement and honestly should really tie any room together nicely.  After all, bacon does make everything better."

'Coolest' person isn't even the word!  Here are some pics...enjoy!!  :)










Hurry!  Don't be disappointed.  7 days left to bid!  Don't let this opportunity go to waste!!
