Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 03-24-2004 Frankenbot View Webcam for 03-24-2004 1 COMMENT
Steve came over tonight for some Lego Mindstorm entertainment. We wound up building the Frankenbot, a sick and perverted vehicle that defied all structural engineering rules. Surprised it held together, we let it loose downstairs to torment my cat. The sheer hideousness (and massive rear spoiler) prompted the cat to run for the safety of the basement immediately. Victorious, the Frankenbot wandered around aimlessly. It was a formidable machine but soon realized it had no real enemy and sadly destroyed itself. Although the death of the Frankenbot was sad, it did entertain us for the better part of an hour, and proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that my cat is a whimp.

Boxelder Bugs Last fall I came home to an entire side of my house covered with these little monsters. The next morning they were gone, or so I thought. Throughout the winter I spotted more and more boxelder bugs in various places around my house. I finally found a high concentration near my basement window, and pulled aside a board to reveal their lair. I quickly vacuumed about 80 of them and dumped them in the snow. I did this a few more times (yes there were that many) and they finally started to thin out. Thinking I had won, I forgot about them until about a week ago. Once again they are showing up in various places and this time I'm on a mission. Fortunately this very informative site has some good ammunition for me to try. If the GnomeCam cuts out in the next week it probably means they won.

I recently discovered the joy of ER Diagrams with Visio 2003. With no artistic ability whatsoever I was able to create a representation of our server environment at work. Not satisfied with the number of icons I was able to use, I decided to create an overly detailed diagram of my home network. And now you know how this page got to your screen.

Today I recieved a generous gift from my associate Duane. Out of respect for the gnome I decided to take a side shot, but I assure you he has a very healthy rear on full display. Now my disturbing gnome has someone to keep him company. It's unfortunate my neighborhood has such a high gnome theft rate or I'd proudly display them all on my front porch for the world to enjoy.

Four inches of snow fell today, ironically 4 days before the official start of spring. I used to enjoy winter weather, and towards the end of summer I usually look forward to it. This winter started late and I have a feeling it's going to drag on. An associate of mine who resides 1200 miles south has been enticing me with tales of year round warm weather. The 4-5 months I lose each year to cold weather could be put to good use if I relocate. One can dream.

Stavos

enorym
there's also millions of cockroaches and bugs year round down south Myrone.
Stavos
They're actually Palmeto bugs and its hardly rained here since last summer and the summer rains aren't really that bad because they're scattered.

Enter a Comment I noticed in this post that Tim went from "friend" to "associate" and I'm a little worried that my current "wife" status may be in jeopardy. Perhaps "associate" was just a mis-characterization? I hope so!

Today is Myrone's birthday, but unfortunately he moved to California so I can't take him out to BoxBar for the occasion. Instead, I've decided to pay a few curb squirrels to dress up in bright orange jackets and knock on my door at various times today. If you see one on the gnome cam you can relive the days of Myrone with me.

Today a warm front moved in resulting in wind gusts of up to 50 MPH. This made for some interesting scenes including uprooted trees and flying recycle bins. It also caused power interruptions which were entertaining at work. Unfortunately this warm front is only going to last till tonight, after which it's back to snow.

The gregorian calendar is used by almost the entire world, and has been since 1582. Since the earth travels around the sun in exactly 365.2424 days, every 4 years this calendar has an extra day thrown in on Feb 29th. Why Feb 29th was chosen I don't know, but I do know that the Julian Calendar kicks the crap ouf the Gregorian. Convert now!

Stavos
I like the leap frog leap pad. Lots of fun and very educational.
