Wine Corks (Questions)
Yes. Wine corks. Where would be a good resource for used wine corks? Restaurants perhaps? What would be a good way of cleaning the wine corks?

Restaurants would probably be a good starting point. I'm not sure about cleaning them. Soak them in water, perhaps?
You can get some already clean ones from a supplier, like here:

Whatcha planning on doing with them?
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe / But at least I'm enjoying the ride.

Time to give jersey crap about her (make believe) economic standing again:
screw tops are not corks
its all in good fun (most of the time) :)
Maybe we could ship them to a cork soaker academy:
