(Untitled)
Well it's been a while, and I'm still not ready to discuss things I'd like to talk about. Sorry to hear of starshineway's mother's passing. What I want post about you may call me crazy for, but I just bought 4 bottles of my favorite off-the-shelf vinegar, Perel late harvest reisling vinegar, for $4 and change. That's a savings of $32. I think ( Read more... ) -
I finally found one
Haven't posted for a while, lots going on, just not ready to put it in my journal yet. Let's just say it involves a big career change.
I was clearing out some tree-fall near the elementary school for firewood, and I came upon what looked like a "Chicken Mushroom, a prized poly-pore mushroom, growing out of a log. The nickname comes from the alleged ( Read more... ) -
What weather!
I just have to say that I've never seen weather like this in Ma in all my 55 years. It's well into July, and since spring temps have been mostly in the 60's, and even the 50's. And endless overcast skies. Even that one June when it rained all but one day, it was still sunny most of the day in general. Truly bizarre weather. -
Freedom
I don't read much because I read at such a tedious slow pace. So is it any wonder I knew nothing of this save for "iron bars" and "do not a prison make.
To Althea from Prison
Colonel Lovelace
WHEN Love with unconfin�d wings
Hovers within my gates,
And my divine Althea brings
To whisper at the grates;
When I lie tangled in her hair

Like a rattlesnake
I was thinking of this post about the spiritual experience: http://seraphimsigrist.livejournal.com/785318.html. and 2 songs came to mind: This one, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DJt4Zz0TT4, fantasy flight as ( Read more... ) -
Killing time
OK, here's the competition, make up the most ridiculously corny joke imaginable. My effort:
I couple are sitting by an empty fire place. The wife says, "I feel like a fire," to which the husband replies, "funny, you don't look like a fire."
I know I have some on my friends list who can give me a run for the money. -
Cars that fly and Mirror Neurons
My friend <a href=tieuthu"> Posted about this the other day http://www.terrafugia.com/. At the moment it reminds me of the fact that I will likely never try, or at least never try unless I absolutely have to, landing any aircraft I happen to be sitting in. My mild form of Autism causes occasional ( Read more... ) -
I'm really not being cryptic here
I know some folks who keep crawling towards the edge, but myself or something else is always able to pull them back. But when one slips by and does manage to go off, they suddenly get very, very slippery. From there there's no grabbing hold of and pulling them back, unless parasitic drag eventually becomes enough to rub off the slick faster than it ( Read more... ) -
On the Book Front
Well as many of you may recall, I wrote a book about 2 1/2 years ago documenting my research in Biomechanics and Motor Control, but never got around to doing the photography for it. These needed to include high-speed photo sequences. Well I finally purchased a neat little camera for a 1000 bucks, and I do believe I will get this photo work done ( Read more... )
