Warren Ellis

Warren Ellis (seen here) is a writer that I pay attention to. His book Shivering Sands inspired me deeply, not so much in content but more-so in composition and style. The note below is from an installment earlier in the week at his blog Warren Ellis dot com. I stop in there a few times [...]

Monday Grab-Bag

HOPE

planet-earth

This is required viewing. From the artist: This piece contains readings from Carl Sagan’s “Pale Blue Dot”. I have edited his words to tell this short narrative. I took the time lapse images in Mexico and Utah. The piano is self-composed. Everything in this video is created by myself except for the words of Carl [...]

Gone Shreddin’

cord

Back in a couple days with brand new Monday night bowling footy, shred footy and tons of new pics from the places we go. Gonna be fun. See you all on the other side. My favorite part of the song above is of course: second 53.

WikiLeaks Doc

wikileaks

For what its worth, here is an excellent piece you need to watch. It irritated me this week when I was able to easily find 5 people who hadnt even heard of WikiLeaks. Interesting in the first video @ 7.20, I suppose there is my answer.

Lone Wolf

5222713860_6b33fe61aa_z

I’ve been getting alot of interesting remarks about the Lone Wolf Project that I just posted last night. Lone Wolf is part of a possible deal with an ammunition website to spearhead all the market shots/sale pieces, this was the first shoot to figure out which direction I want to take this photographically. I dont [...]

NinjaMotorhome Contest!

FatGothKid

FIRST EVARRR PRIZE GIVEAWAY! Big time noise from Salem’s new witchy/ghost-drone LP. This track is King Night which is also the name of the LP. Im posting it because the choir bit is so close to a Christmas carol that every time I hear it I inadvertantly hear the carols’ words over the bit. Look [...]

Beaver hell

gaybeavers

I found a beaver lodge in Alaska and I cant stand beavers so I tried to find them, but once in the zone I couldnt handle the fear. Hunters found baby bones in a beaver lodge once, or maybe it was just a half eaten baby I dont know….but it must have been so gnarly. [...]

Denis Leary

Loved the guy for years, I check for a new podcast every other day or so and now I have the book: Why We Suck. Should be fine Sunday reading.

Membership Drive

The Gary Brooks Faulkner: Swordsman! facebook club. You know what to do after the jump.

Ignite Seattle!

If you had five minutes on stage what would you say? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Around the world geeks have been putting together Ignite nights to show their answers. See you there tonight, doors @ 7p, King Cat Theatre. Ignite Seattle. (Im defiintely throwing my [...]

Keeping Bees

Going Dark

Switching everything to auto-pilot for the weekend, see you all on the other side. All the usuals apply, twitter and SMS for your guiding light.

ScienceLab!! (hairy squid edition)

Doctors say because he cannot sweat or lose heat through his skin, it peels away in fish-like scales, Hi Fishboy. Little wonder, then, that the skull of Stortebeker has fascinated Germans for so long — and that its theft from a Hamburg museum last month has kept police busy. They interrogated members of the often [...]

the sex calendar

If your a dude youve seen it, if your not; youve done it….we all know about the sex calendar or more famously….The Smiley System. I will never forget the first one I saw that related directly to me and ever since then I have kept one of my own. Some years I keep smiley faces, [...]

Small Thoughts on Bees

When I first walked into the Bee Clinic last Thursday I was immediately overcome with all sorts of smells: the sharpness of wax, sweetness of honey and crisp fragrant wood frames for hive building. I want my house to smell the same way…it was really good. REALLY good. In 4 to 5 more weeks I [...]

ScienceLab! Bees:

The results showed that bees clearly prefer nectar containing nicotine and caffeine over the “clean” nectar. The preferred nicotine concentration was 1 milligram per liter, similar to that found in nature. Given a choice of higher levels of nicotine versus “clean” nectar, the bees preferred the latter. Smoke ‘em if you got em. A group [...]

Crystal Mtn Rendevous

  Crystal Mountain has formally invited the Stevens Pass motorhome lot(s) to rendevous with them in March, for a weekend of hospitality and late season skiing. Beyond the political nightmare that is our dark albeit yet unknown destiny at Stevens Pass Lower Lot, I think its a fine idea to make a Crystal Mountain Fun [...]
