Buy his stuff Oh, and before I forget, Paul's website is: http://www.margomitchell.com/index2.htm Posted at 09:10:46 PM EST by copus Paul! Paul Hornschemeier, my best friend when I was in elementary school made Time Magazine this week: Comic Book Heroes He's good. He's better than he was when I lived in Georgetown. I guess his photograph made the print version of the magazine. Posted at 09:05:04 PM EST by copus
iPod Shuffle I bought an iPod shuffle a few days ago. I love it, but I haven't found any car mount kits for it. I know it's geared more towards carrying it around, but I certainly wouldn't mind listening to it in my car. So, I pulled out the duct tape, got a sandwich baggie to use as lining, and started playing around. Here's my prototype of a duct tape iPod Shuffle car mount (pouch?). I need to get some velcro to mount it. http://www.copus.org/projects/ipod_shuffle_mount/ Note the back pouch to hold my RF adapter. I'll put up better pictures (light levels in my kitchen have a lot to be desired) and more detail. Because I can. Posted at 10:41:31 PM EST by copus
Sleepless Premonition During yet another night of fitful almost-sleep, I had this vision. A premonition, if you will. So, in my quest to be this age's Nostradamus, my prediction for the year 2010 is... Posted at 07:07:29 AM EST by copus

Now I'm just confused. I think I'm going to put a tip jar at work. See what ends up in there. This could be sweet. Posted at 09:22:31 PM EST by copus
Take the engineer bowling... So, I've gone bowling two weeks in a row. A couple years ago, I played a bit, and averaged between 100-120. Not good, but not completely embarassing. These last two weeks my HIGH score is an 86. Holy Crap! What happened? An owner/worker at the bowling alley even came over to make fun of me. I almost hit him. I should have told him I was crippled or a cancer patient. I bet THAT would have shut him up. Next time I'll just smack him, though. Posted at 07:08:56 PM EST by copus |
