Haha, good tip.
I got lucky today and came up with some sweeper bristles. I saw the sweeper parked on the side of the road, and traded the driver a can of soda for 15 bristles! I just snapped them off with a pair of pliers. Actually he probably would have given them to me, I gave him a soda anyway.
