By all means — check it out as I believe you will find it “fascinating” (to say the least) — and in the meantime, enjoy the following “mini” MB that begins w/ some OUTstanding Sand Sculptures that may be the “best ever”. . .
His Sand Sculptures Are Brilliant… How Is This Even Possible
Carl Jara’s work doesn’t have turrets, mermaids, or fish, but it does depict otherworldly scenes (along with realistic recreations) that spark the imagination. The Cleveland-based sculptor and woodworker does that on purpose: His intention is to create things you would never normally see in a sandcastle competition. His work is definitely unusual, not to mention totally impressive. See what Jara does with sand, patience, and a ton of talent, below.
Jara’s sculptures are more about abstraction than creating things that reflect marine life.
He’s earned nine World Championship metals for his sand sculptures,
and
it’s not difficult to see why
His work is incredibly unusual, and it’s also a little subversive for your average sandcastle competition.
His work is so smooth and refined that you almost forget that what you’re looking at is sand, instead of wood or marble.
Jara studied fine art in college, but soon realized that design was not his strong suit. Instead, he wanted to create with his hands, and sand is the perfect medium.
The response to his work has been nothing but positive, and Jara has no plans to stop.

MOMS IN GROUP THERAPY
A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young mothers and their small children. “You all have obsessions,” he observed.
To the first mother, Mary, he said, “You are obsessed with eating.
You’ve even named your daughter Candy.”
He turned to the second Mom, Ann: “Your obsession is with money. Again, it manifests itself in your child’s name, Penny.”
He turned to the third Mom, Joyce:
“Your obsession is alcohol. This too shows itself in your child’s name, Brandy.”
At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy , quietly got up, took her little boy by the hand, and whispered, “Come on, Dick, this guy has no idea what he’s talking about. Let’s pick up Peter and Willy from school and get some dinner”.
