BlogOn March 10, 2002 I completed setup of my webcam archiving program, the
GnomeCam. Today, March 10th 2003, it has been faithfully snapping pictures every 5 minutes for the past 365 days. I plan to use the captures to create a video of the passing year and post it for download. Eventually I'll have to archive the captures by year (it now consumes over 800MB) but for now you can view any day on my front porch between March 10, 2002 and today.
It's Enorym's birthday! What better way to celebrate than
Cosmic Bowling!I recently recieved an email with a picture of the
Earth at Night. I discovered it was the
NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day for November. Check out the
archive for even more fascinating photos.
For whatever reason, both
Duane and
Brian are convinced I'm an idiot for using an electric mower. According to them, it takes me 3 hours to mow my lawn and my mower will break down in less than a year. Since neither of them have ever had PERSONAL experience with an electric mower I don't understand how they can be so convinced of it. I know for a fact it takes me less than 30 minutes to mow my front and back yard. Unfortunately I haven't had it for a year yet, but I'm sure the breakdown predicition will not come true. Beyond that, how someone's personal preference can be labelled idiotic I'm not quite sure. I can't even pinpoint WHY it upsets them, but apparently it does. My reasoning is simple: I like my electric mower. Instead of spewing out emissions and using a 20% or less efficient internal combustion engine, I use the much more efficient power plant that provides electricity to my house. That's my rant, and now that I've said it I'll just agree with whatever they say. Maybe I can put an exhaust pipe on mine and tell them it's not electric anymore.

Lately, with the terrorist threats, columbia disaster, and the local news, everyone feels like they should fear everything. The media is definately having a blast with it, since fear sells. People are glued to their TV's, afraid to leave their houses, which makes for a nice captive audience for commercials. So, while you hear about the neighbor that the problem solvers caught cleaning out his garage (obviously making bombs to kill everyone) you can hear about the latest male potency supplement during the break. After all, consuming is the only real option in a society of fear. I'm boycotting the media (except for columbia news from nasa.gov) and suggest you do to. That which you fear
isn't all that dangerous. Take back your life and ignore the media. Maybe you won't need the potency supplement anymore. Of course, you're always welcome to
continue the trend.

While sitting at the show, finishing up my homework, someone runs up to me and says "Dude you got third place!" So I follow him to the awards (didn't think I'd win anything) and hand the judge my card. He gets the 1st place trophy and says "Congratulations!" Needless to say I'm giddy.
I entered my
Cougar into
AutoRama this year. So far it's been pretty exciting. I managed to get my new ground effects installed, underbody neon fixed, and a new windshield banner during the show. Lots of people stopping by and asking how I managed to supercharge a Cougar. I answer all of them with "midgets."
Here are photosA pipe erupted in my utility room, spewing water into my kitchen, living room, and flooding down into the basement. It burst Friday after I left and flooded all day into Saturday, and then into Sunday morning when I got home at 1:00pm and found the water shutoff. Fortunately nothing major got destroyed yet, but I'm still checking. Wish me luck on my cleanup effort.
