This is from one of many walks Lora and I took down Mass street in Lawrence. Our first year in town we lived at 912 Maine, so it was a short walk. This photo was taken in June, and the building looks green because of the street lights. […]
At work we order a lot of items from Rothco. They mainly do military stuff so we end up getting camo shirts from them, sometimes hats, even belts. Well this morning a box full of bb guns arrived (Sean & Jim ordered them) and that pretty much defined the rest of the day. […]
I’m finally getting around to using the great bandwidth advantages of my pro Flickr account (thanks Lora!). Tonight I uploaded two entire folders worth of pictures from 2002. These are the first two days I had my digital camera. It was a birthday gift from my mom. I still have 6 […]
Just a quick one, but a toilet that weighs your poop. This is a good idea and I know it, and it seems simple enough. I think we’ve all had a moment where we’re proud of our work but only have anecdotal evidence. This would solve that problem, and as a possible bonus you should […]

Update: Lora actually got the game to work by, no shit, hitting the space bar a bunch of times. WTF!? Regardless, it’s still defective but at least I don’t have to deal with Target anymore. Original story below…
On December 22nd I went Christmas shopping at Target. I wanted to get […]
At work we tend to get a lot of phone solicitors, and we love talking with them. We’ve gotten into full productions before, with props even (well, a bag of chips and a keyboard). For the past week I’ve been trying to find a way to record these conversations quickly. This afternoon […]
It was the start of the Summer Wolverine hunt last Frursday, but of course I was in no mood for the carnage. Only one week earlier I had learned of the death of my cousin, R. R. R. Holmes, by that damned Hoppem’s Fever Flu. I do hope by my end the medical sciences will […]
