We Have These Anticipated Lacerations
19 January 2010Just so you know, if you ever drop a two-quart Pyrex bowl on your kitchen floor just right, it will shatter into a bazillion fractal-sized shards.
We Have These Vehicles
15 November 2009
Volkswagen Mark II Golf, $500.
So, I bought a hooptie. This is my first front-wheel-drive car. It’s also the smallest car I’ve ever owned. It also has the fewest horsepower of any car I’ve owned. And I’m a bit abashed to admit it’s the first car I’ve owned with a manual transmission.
Schwinn cyclocross bicycle, $700.
So, I bought a new bicycle. This is the best bike I’ve ever owned. It’s basically the bike I tried to build out of an old Raleigh Sportif back in the day, although this bike has disc brakes instead of no brakes. I have to admit I really enjoy the idea of having disc brakes on a bicycle, although I ride under wet conditions so infrequently they’re probably pointless.
We Have This Aftershave
3 October 2009So, I’ve started wearing aftershave. Well, sort of. I use it after shaving my head (which I do every week). Thanks to AAFES, I can still get Aqua Velva even though I’m back in Germany again.
Why Aqua Velva? I blame Pete Rose.
We have this staple gun
24 May 2009
This is my staple gun. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
I love this staple gun even though I had to special order staples from Germany because no place around here seems to carry the correct size. No matter; I’ve got thousands now. That ought to last me at least a week.
