Maxed Out: Hard Times, Easy Credit and the Era of Predatory Lenders (2006) is an independent feature-length documentary film and (2007) book that chronicles abusive practices in the credit card industry. Written and directed by James Scurlock, the film and book use interviews with creditors, debtors, academics, and others to illustrate its story. The film premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas, USA, in 2006 where it claimed the Special Jury Prize. It went on to several film fests including Seattle, Full Frame Documentary, Maui, New Zealand, Milwaukee International, Woodstock, Bergen, Leeds International, Oxford and IDFA (Amsterdam) film festivals. It was released in movie theaters in select cities in the United States in March 2007 through Magnolia Pictures. The DVD was released nationally in June 7, 2007, in the joint effort Magnolia Pictures and Red Envelope Entertainment (a division of Netflix). The book Maxed Out is published by Scribner, a division of Simon and Schuster. It was published in March 2007 in hardcover and in December 2007 in paperback.
Scurlock’s purpose for the film and book was to raise awareness of how credit and lending issues are affecting society. The main premises of the documentary and book are that banks and other creditors deliberately market to people who are more likely to have problems paying predatory lending and that the creditors benefit from connections to government, the debt collection industry, and from lawmaker apathy.
The non-profit organization Americans for Fairness in Lending (AFFIL) has organized screenings of Maxed Out around the country as part of its work. AFFIL sustains a formal collaboration with the film.

I would like to sell the entire inventory at a reasonable price. These flowers are top quality. The store made floral designs, they did not sell individual pieces. There are approximately 40 buckets, too many to ship, but available to view with appointment.
Try listing on craigslist. It's local to your area, and free.
You could also try ebay, but you'd need to upload pictures, and it costs money to list – even if you don't sell.

“Slice” (1994)
(Lyrics)Watts (Music)Imai, Watts (arrangement)Imai,Watts
once twice sometimes thrice I came for you with a stanley knife
nicely nicely come on excite me I wanna feel your metal slice me
feel defile oh so dumb I see you hurt now here I come
I’m silent I’m violent lie still while I have my will
I’m soon hot soon cold
a mismarriage of velvet how I feel it
my skin is aflame my mind is lame
you twist this knot and feed my pain
slice slice here comes the knife
slice slice here comes the knife
feed the fire on my funeral pyre you’re the pearl I’m the pain
you’re the lesion I’m the lesion I hear a great big noise inside my head
a squinting eye a squeezing finger bide the hurts with a chink of lead
there’s a fear filled blood red sea in my mind a punt of lies is my legacy
gimme the space and I’ll show you the pace
you’re the fish I’m the foul meat in the middle
turn up the fire put the flesh on the griddle
you’re the place that holds me in its spell
that holds me like the native place
to you I talk, walk and stalk
the seaboard secret strikes the line
the land I burn is all that’s mine
burn your lover
burn your shrine
fill my cup and bide my time
I’m the silent cyclone the silent medicine
this killin’ is fillin’ my cup to brimmin’
you obey while I betray
I taste and die heave and cry
yearn for one more reddened eye
the tree the flower and the seed
will supporate and dry and bleed
your secret skin will spell my name
your secret skin will shelter me
your secret skin will smell of me
your secret skin will hide this
shame
