I also did one of the hikes to the CO river in the 90s with 3 friends when we were in college. We got off to a late start so jogged down a good deal of the way (dumb). We carried a 1 gallon water jug each (not even close to enough). We h

Isn't that what humans do too? We mimic noises we've heard before and we associate meaning to the noises. Parrots can do that. Our quaker parrot would bite you, then say 'not supposed to bite'. He clearly associated

Dammit, I messed it all up. I meant Harry Mudd from Star Trek, as most correctly guessed.

I got all excited until I realized Harvey Mudd isn't Henry Mudd. This project would have had a lot more cred, in my book, if it were the latter.

A German equatorial telescope mount. Right now I'm learning to make gears. After building the hardware I'd like to write the firmware/software for tracking stars and planets. This will be a long term project for sure.

When I was 14 or so I took a long bus ride downtown to buy The Wall on vinyl. The ride back home was torture, gazing at that beautiful art work and not being able to listen.

I'm a lefty and I played right handed guitar growing up. I never got very good at strumming and picking. Five years ago I switched to left-handed guitars and I think I'm much better than I ever was as a righty. Picking the stri
