Happy New Year everyone! Man it seems like only yesterday we were all huddled in our bunkers waiting for Y2K with bated breath… and bottled water and raman noodles…
Happy New Year!
MIT’s Stackable Cars
Four years in the making, a new type of stackable car design is about to be finalized by it’s MIT developers. The car is designed to help big cities cope with the age old problem of traffic congestion — at least until we can all afford Segways.Of course this design is so revolutionary it may extend beyond the big city to the rest of us. I know that I’m always looking for a sweeter ride to get me around the back nine. :D
PC Christmas
For those of you that were offend by our “Merry CHRISTmas” yesterday… We’re sorry.
Not really, but for those of you that are overly sensitive here is a PC Holiday Greeting: Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2006, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. And without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. PS: If you ARE offended by this whole Christmas thing, We — as a matter of personal social conscience — will thoughtfully take any and all Christmas presents off your hands. Simply contact us via our email or text the word “Gifts” to 101909 and we will send you information on how to ship them to us.Thanks Sarah
Merry Christmas
Merry CHRISTmas everyone! Christmas time reminded me of another childhood story. The correct way to sing the classic tune Angels We Have on Heard High is as follows:
Angels we have on heard high
Sweetly singing ore the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
(Chorus)
Glo—ria. In egg shells, cease day-O.
Glo—ria. In egg shells, cease day-O…
DIY Basement
Whew… It's been hard to keep up with the site… what with the Christmas rush and trying to finish my basement. I figured I would turn this obstacle into an advantage and grab some content out of the experience. Here is the glorious BEFORE picture:
And the Phase 1 pics. On the left, notice the window is now a door and the electrical work is partially complete. On the right, the framing for the closet and bathroom is complete and the cinderblock walls have been prepped with waterproofing paint…
