Forts

PillowFort

Nobody makes sweet forts anymore. Be they blanket, pillow, tree or otherwise, I just don't see them being made enough. It has been ages since I went to a friend's house and was moved to exclaim, "That is a SWEET fort, dude".

This simply has to change. Most of us have been as far through the academic wringer as we may ever go. We know about abstraction and symbolism. Just think about how sweet a pillow or tree fort could be made by so-and-so with her Masters in Mechanical Engineering from M.I.T.? I think the golden age of forts is yet to come.

So I say to you, readers of this blog, make forts. Take pictures of these forts and post them somewhere so that I and others yearning to see sweet forts can see them. Is there something like this already? Tell me if there is. I am pretty ignorant to the internet these days.
