Fine, I shall post a meme.

If you saw me in the back of a police car, what would you think I was arrested for?

Answer me, then post this in your own journal to see how many different crimes you get accused of committing.

Insomnia again

Sat, 06 Sep 2008 06:33:22 GMT

Up late trying to find a new lubricant that doesn't pick up regolith and grind it into the moving parts of the mechanical lazor. Also, trying to tune the mechanical lens to handle a larger concurrent mass of lava sharcks. At this rate, I'll never make it to the moon.

Bummer

Thu, 04 Sep 2008 20:12:56 GMT

Well, the internet doesn't provide me a site to buy lunar regolith simulant, so I'm proceeding with testing using common sand. *sigh*. Hopefully I can make this work.

Working toward being a supervillian is really hard.

I need a lens

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 21:56:20 GMT

Can someone help me design a lens to focus a coherent stream of lava-sharks? I am trying to build a mechanical lazor as photons are too tiny and insignificant to work the way I want.

Also, does anyone know where I can get some lunar regolith simulant for testing?

Just a little side project I am working on.

Burfday present!

I got my belated birthday present from my sister!

She got me a Saturn V!

I'm going to the moon.

Mayhem!!

CATS AND DOGS LYING TOGETHER!

New phone

Mon, 05 May 2008 23:39:15 GMT

I got a new cell phone. The old one still works, but it wasn't a T-Mobile branded phone, so I couldn't send or receive images on it. The new phone does allow picture messages, and it's wifi enabled.

Coverage is pretty bad inside my house, especially in the basement where I live. However, wifi coverage is abundant there. I can use my internets at home as a phone, and it doesn't even count against my minutes.

I also can e-mail pictures I take to myself, and this post is just the result of playing with that feature.

The cafe in the building I work at is doing a week-long trial serving food in the evening. The plate above cost a dollar.

I did it!

Wed, 30 Jan 2008 23:50:47 GMT

What did I do?

Broke my ThinkPad R40 by falling on it.
Fixed the front bumper on my Jeep
Bought a refurb ThinkPad T43
Deleted my MySpace
Caught a cold

Laundry is humiliating...

Fri, 04 Jan 2008 00:06:31 GMT

Doing laundry today, I sorted it out, and did a load of whites. Threw them in the dryer, loaded in the blacks and found one white sock.

*sigh*

So I have one dirty white sock.

Then the black load was done, loading in colors, found one black sock.

*argh*

Laundry has weighed me in the balance and found me wanting.

More Flickr abuse

Another picture

You've already seen 2 pictures of Zeus messing up my Forza Motorsport game.
This post is simply a trial-run of using flickr to host my pictures, instead of my own server.

Toys of the year 2007 - 13

Tue, 18 Dec 2007 07:25:29 GMT

Again, apologies for being late, was at work again.

This is the last one, the final toy.

I don't play violin. But I want to learn someday. And I got a great deal because *gasp* the liner of the case is the wrong color. The manufacturer uses a new color now.

2007 - A Year of Toys - Part 12

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 07:21:38 GMT

Apologies for being late on Sunday's update, I was at work.

Anyway, the impetus for buying the Xbox360 posted yesterday was the game Rock Band. It's hard to get a good picture of everything, so here's kids playing it at a friend's party on Saturday:

Sat, 08 Dec 2007 11:25:31 GMT

Because I am such a hero of the guitar in Guitar Hero, I bought a real guitar, and started trying to learn. I am still terrible.

After buying the Wii, I found my old TV didn't have any inputs that the Wii would talk to, so I bought this:
