I first came across these two way back in 2005 (a year before YouTube was a thing). I’m certain every episode I saw was done in Flash (RIP).
On seeing this video, I didn’t realize/remember there were multiple stories. I recall “Cake Dance” for the viral earworm that it is… but had forgotten everything that came after.
I love the act of finding old photographs at a flea market. And in picking up those old photos, I’m instantly transported into someone else’s life, from a different time.
These videos evoke that same intimacy. I’m immediately drawn into the person speaking, and I’m walking alongside them as they talk to the camera. So much good stuff on her channel to explore.
For the first time, on the road north of Tampico,
I felt the life sliding out of me,
a drum in the desert, harder and harder to hear.
We’re planning on introducing the Scotch Malt Whisky Society to the Denlers this week, and Liz was taking the matter incredibly seriously.
Bob’s been working in the basement, getting a lot of our electrical updated. We’ve had lights installed in the far West corner of the basement for some time, but they’ve just been hanging out, without power.
We were working on all floors, today. I was upstairs in the guest room, removing the remaiing lath from the ceiling. Liz was on the first floor, cleaning up more of all her hardware. And Bob was in the basement, wiring up more of our lights.
The odd thing for me: I didn’t really know who Mason was. But on hearing the impressions and the sound of his voice, immediately recognized it at someone who had been in films.
While I’ve caught myself in the past, today is a new personal best. I brewed up a pot of coffee, that ended up actually being a pot of hot water.
In trying to imagine moving my project into a physical container (box), the Arduino Uno itself is a bit bulky. I’ve been trying to figure out how to shrink the footprint down more, and ultimately decided to switch things over to an Arduino Nano (technically a Nano Every).
I haven’t affixed the lid yet to the top of the box, and wanted to see how things fared in the spaces I made. So I decided to hook up the display and buttons.
As part of my Arduino project, I plan on enclosing it within a box. I’m somewhat at a stage now where I actually need the box, so I was working on that a bit tonight. Got a few basic pieces of wood from Home Depot to experiment with.
Yesterday, I started the day off by driving out to Skokie to get some bunny meds for Phineas. The meds came in this great little plastic bag.
Came back to the house, suited up, and got to work up on the second floor. My main goal: demo the ceiling in the guest room, and clear out some of the old electrical that’s still up in the attic.
Went down to the basement, and saw Liz and pulled out all (and I mean all the house hardware she’s hunted down and located, over the years). She was doing an inventory of everything, and figuring out what to keep, what to clean, etc.
“I ain’t no Butch Cassidy or Sundance Kid
But I stole your heart with just one kiss
You were there by my side when the only reward
Was riding shotgun in that Honda Accord”
