Odd...but true...

So I have a new neighbor. The man has a beautiful singing voice and him and his lady friend have some fantastic passionate fights. I often linger outside my door to listen to both the singing and fighting.

The odd thing is what is posted on their front door. It is not like they are 60...they are late twenties, early 30's. So this simply makes no sense. My favorite thing is imagining someone uncovering this in the move and then mounting the beast to the door. Also I like to picture it's ownership coming to question when they break up: "That lute/scroll/grape hideous bronze door decoration is mine! Not yours"

The weirder part...in The Office this week I spotted it on the wall in Jim's house.

It is Episode 509. You don't need to watch the entire episode you can click to it. It is at 18:13, I suggest getting ready to pause at 18:13....it is viewable for 2 seconds, but my quick, observant, fancy eye picked it up. I am not sure you are that good.

I did...click back, pause it. Look at my computer...ran to my front door to confirm it was the same piece of art and ran back to my computer to resume watching the episode and was humored.

That is a bizarre coincidence, if I do say so...or maybe it is not.
