Seen on the back of a forklift at the Shipyard while I helped clean it out a few weeks ago.
DANGER! LAWYER OPPORTUNITY ZONE
Failure to have perfectly adequate warnings that anticipate every possible hazardous situation, no matter how remote, will result in litigation by hordes of lawyers who will make even the most innocent thing appear to be malicious willful intent by your company to cause a great harm to their client, and will leave you penniless and broken after wasting immense amounts of your time.
Jimmy Kimmel went to Maker Faire. He gave us a nice interview though all that made it to screen were a few short clips. It’s cool to note that our fire acted as endcaps to the bit. His story starts and ends with FLG fire.
I got about 4 frames on TV. At 30 frames/second, that’s 0.166 seconds of fame.
I overheard this on a mailing list I belong to. Much redacted to protect the innocent, and the guilty. The topic was, “how to keep people from tagging art work”.
Tagging will happen.
SEVERAL YEARS AGO we worked around the clock and through sand storms to finish “that stupid [redacted].” Late one evening [person] walked up behind a very large dude tagging the freshly stained [art]. The tagger was sporting two large and long dreadlocks right out of the top of his head. Suddenly his hair style changed to a uni-dread as [person] grabbed him by the head and threw him to the ground effectively scalping the guy.
As a warning to the rest of the taggers, [person] tied the scalped dread to his [object] and [left] it hanging there for the rest of the event.
Take what you will from this, everything has consequences.
Last year I helped to build The Serpent Mother with the Flaming Lotus Girls. I welded and ground a lot of stainless steel sheet. Here is a safety guide I created for safely working with stainless steel.
Phoey! I just found Penn Radio a few months ago on podcast. I went looking for it today and it’s gone :-( . He stopped broadcasting the show in March but my podcasting just caught up to it.
I was really starting to get into it. I simply loved the latest “Pull of the Weasel Friday” episode.
Last night Charlotte and I had dinner with the Evil Mad Scientists, got a good look at the CandyFab 4000 among other things, had a fabulous meal with their family. Their home made gelato was waay better than ice cream, and home made tortellini, and pizelles and …! Foodies!
It should be noted that there’s just one day left in the auction of a holy relic that they found sitting on the print-bed of the CandyFab one day. You should bid it up.
We bought a TIG welder (a Lincoln Electric Precision TIG 225 with foot pedal and cart) so we can weld together the orbs for SWARM. I played with it yesterday with Michael and weeee!
