This dude is something else.  Some of the videos of his sky surfing are just awsome.  The jet wing is coming along but not something I would even think about trying.  Totally nuts!

Thanks Steve for the original link to his jetman video!  Meant to reply in email and then the holidays ensueith…

The Temas Blog » “Ecological Bricks”

New post about building with PET bottles/product waste at the Temas blog.  Keith as always has a good writeup with links to other sources (mainly in spanish but google or babel fish translate fairly well) and info.

I’m thinking of trying a wall section (or two)  of PET 2 liter bottles in the roundhouse I am building.  Been wondering how they would work with cobb as a binding agent.  No time like the present to find out.

D.I.Y. Moustache Wax

I am using the half and half mix right now.  Half beeswax and half petroleum jelly melted and mixed together seems to be about right.  Toward summer it may be a bit too soft but will have to wait and see.  Course in the summer I tend to cut the facial fungus back a bit due to the heat here in the south.

November 16, 2006

Here’s a scenario that is familiar to anyone who has ever set foot in Wal-Mart, CVS, Rite-Aid, or any of a dozen other major retailers. After you have made a purchase, collected your bags, or packed everything into a shopping cart, you head for the exit. Just as you approach freedom an alarm sounds (usually a sequence of ugly, electronic grunts) and a robotic voice (always female) announces: “Please return to the checkout.” Other customers immediately look in your direction, and an employee begins to approach you. What’s your next move?

Tell them to stuff it and walk out!  I love it!  Well worth the read.  Thanks go to Steve for the link.
