The Dire Straits song Money For Nothing, a staple of classic-rock radio and music-video oldies shows, has been ruled as too offensive for the airways, two and a half decades after its original release.
The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council has found that the word “faggot” in the lyrics breaches the council’s code of ethics. The decision is in response to a complaint against radio station OZ FM in Newfoundland for broadcasting the song last February.
Michigan-based artist Laura Bell says she had to do almost 800 hours of laundry to create enough lint for the reproduction of the masterpiece, and spent another 200 hours putting it together.
She began the seven-month project to compete in ‘ArtPrize 2010’ and says she was inspired to produce the 14-foot-long, 4-foot tall work after seeing other lint-based art-works.
To get the right colours, Bell bought towels in the colours that she wanted to use and then washed and dried them separately because laundromat lint isn’t a suitable art medium. We’re sorry if you think this it too much of a fluff piece.

This ancient tribe of people, ‘Tsaan people’ has been revolving their lives around their domestic reindeer herds for around 4000 years.
This fact has been confirmed due to the discovery of ancient hieroglyphs on rocks dated 4000 years; these pillar style rock paintings document the Tsaan people coexisting with reindeer.
