RING SHAPED UFO MANHATTAN BEACH

chance — Tue, 05 May 2009 01:49:47 +0000

This is one of the best “UFO in action” videos on Youtube right now. Whether it is legit or not is a whole nuther’ ball of wax. It is fair to note that the guy who shot this didn’t stabilize or focus correctly. Hell — if we had seen something like this, would we?

Check it out.

HamBoards

I saw a story about these things on Digg, and was pretty impressed by what I was reading so I followed the rabbit down the hole and found the following video on youtube.

Looks like fun!

Wow, just wow. Funny and alarming

In addition, the engineering side of me thinks that it is not a good idea to put your words and ideas into what God might or might not think or do.

Well, well, well -- quite the summer has passed.

I traveled through 12 states with my dog Scout, visited some old friends, made some new friends, and am now watching the movie known as “what in the name of sam hell is going on with the financial markets and why are these rich and grasping greedheads ruining our party?”

People were living high off the hog, borrowing money they shouldn’t, but this current nonsense is mind boggling on many levels. I hope those people who bought their kids matching luxury cars because that’s what kids need these days to fit in don’t get burned too bad.

Anyways -- Chance and I are both keeping busy and I have a few posts to write over the next month or so.

Here is some music.

Lego Art: The Art of the Brick

Cameron S. — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 17:36:24 +0000

As a child I enjoyed Lego in its endless array of things I could build. Nowadays most Lego seems heavily themed, in that each kit builds something specific. This artist, Nathan Sawaya, has an enviable job in which he creates Lego sculptures that are commissioned by clients. He has a large gallery with lots of interesting themes.

Some artists use paint, others bronze – But for Nathan Sawaya he chooses to build his awe-inspiring art out of toy building blocks. LEGO® bricks to be exact.

With more than 1.5 million colored bricks in his New York studio, Sawaya’s sculptures take many forms.

Sawaya’s art is currently touring North American museums in a show titled, The Art of the Brick. It’s the only exhibition focusing exclusively on LEGO as an art medium. The creations, constructed from nearly one million pieces, were built from standard bricks beginning as early as 2002. More information on the tour, dates and locations can be found here.

A full-time freelance artist, Sawaya accepts commissions from individuals, corporations, and … well just about anyone with a good idea! He’s also available to design and build custom creations at events, photo shoots and conventions.

So let Sawaya know what you have in mind, there are literally no limits to what he can create out of LEGO.
