Hello! to people who took my card from Artomatic and then came through the link to here.
Hello! to people who were searching for “Batman Spaceship”

But hello the most to people who are looking for the “Worlds Tallest Cat”. Because that post is the most popular I’ve ever done. I am going to cater to the masses and post some pictures of Frankie, hopefully with some sort of scientific measurements.

Also my other website Swalrus.org is now the number one result when searching for “swalrus” on google… I have now fulfilled one of my life goals.

New plans for GM

Interests, Life

I usually hat Michael Moore. Not that he dosen’t make some entertaining documentaries about important subjects, but he’s just an enormous ass. BUT… he does have some good things to say about what to do with this failing auto maker that we all just bought. I think his way of connecting what’s happening now with the wartime industry of the 40s is really smart. Also he made me realize that we’ve made a switch this big before, from horses to cars. Now we can do it again, from cars to…

Just as President Roosevelt did after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the president must tell the nation that we are at war and we must immediately convert our auto factories to factories that build mass-transit vehicles and alternative-energy devices. Within months in Flint in 1942, GM halted all car production and immediately used the assembly lines to build planes, tanks, and machine guns. The conversion took no time at all. Everyone pitched in. The fascists were defeated

Impromptu Nats Game

Entertainment, Random

After setting up some lights and beiing generally frustrated with our frame lock system. Wade and I decided to check out the Nationals game last night. It was a really fun time! They’ve set up a “Beer Garden” out side, with a band… and cornhole courts. That’s right Cornhole… the game of champions. So after spending the first two innings schooling fools in some cornhole we decided to go inside. It was like the rapid fire tour of the stadium. First couple innings we sat at “The Red Porch”. Which isn’t bad, Its a really good view from basically dead center field.

You can have a good time for “Cheap”, it’s still the $6 beers, but if the ticket was only $5-10 then it makes it worth it.
After a while we went up to our seats. We weren’t sitting on a light pole or anything, but they were up there. Got a Ben’s half smoke and took in the next two innings. Still not a bad view from up there and the glass railings are a nice touch.

We left after the 7th inning because we had been at work all day and wanted to get out of there. The Nats rallied to win the game (shocking) without us anyway. I think I’ll go back. It’s not a bad happy hour scene, but with out happy hour prices.
