The Secret Museum of Mankind
Sunday, March 16th, 2008Probably not safe for work as “here there be tits”, but please note that we are talking “National Geographic” type tits, and not “girl’s gone wild” tits, so whatever/whichever you have been warned.
Weird stuff. Lots of pics that I have never seen before, and some that I didn’t want to see at all 
but overall an interesting site from a historical (hysterical???) prospective.

Shades of Stephen King! That was one wicked hard impact. Wonder if it was something from the meteorite or something boiling out of the hot ground that caused the problems?

blog gnist org - Synergy - two screens, two OSes
Sunday, August 26th, 2007blog gnist org - Synergy - two screens, two OSes
Have read about (and may have even posted about) synergy before but never tried it. Tis a good read and he does several things to ensure that no one snoops. Good pointers and code to go with them. When I get another monitor (ain’t giving my flat screen/iBook dual screen setup up) for the linux box and get it back up and running I’d like to try to set it up like this dude has done. Nice!

Hexayurt Project - How To Live Wiki
Friday, August 24th, 2007Hexayurt Project - How To Live Wiki
Steve pointed out that I hadn’t posted about this yet so here it is. One of the links that I lost in the iBook freezing up and firefox not reloading all the many windows and tabs that I had open.
Lotta potential in this design. I am thinking about using a framing system of some kind (2×2 or 2×4 with some trimming done or maybe bamboo or saplings) and an alternative fabric and/or plastic roofing/siding. I realize this defeats the purpose behind this design but for the buildings I need I think it will work out cheaper though not necessarily cooler/warmer.

Biologists Helping Bookstores
Friday, August 24th, 2007This is some funny stuff! Folks helping bookstores out by putting the “Intelligent Design” books in the proper places.
No, not the trash or toilet, just a bit of relocating into the proper categories. Go to the site and read a bit to find out which categories these are.

Friday, August 24th, 2007Bat House Project: Economy Bat House Plans
Interesting way to build a bat house. Looks simple enough.
IF the above link isn’t working (looks to me like the site is getting an upgrade) and /or for more info take a look at more plans (pdf only it looks like) at http://www.batcon.org/home/index.asp?idPage=47.
Bats are the best non electric, pesticide free flying insect control out there!
Aaron Adding Machines
Friday, August 24th, 2007Don’t think I have posted this link before but am too lazy to look so if I have here it is again.
These are interesting but it would be nice if he would give a little background and maybe a view of the actual guts and/or construction of one of them. Cool stuff anyway.
