Rockets

(I made this mobile blog, just as a way to remind myself about the brand name of the rocket kit. They want $140 for the "AquaPort" so you'd probably better off making your own. I think I spent less than $30 when Paul made Water Rockets for his science fair project.)

www.Pitsco.com makes a water rocket that even adults can enjoy. The R2K!

Teleportation

Now I am finishing a meal at Abuelos. The waitress has brought mints.

Look! This one is from The Melting Pot.

Clearly this evidence of teleportation or quantum entanglement or something.

Time Travel

Today some one brought in left over Christmas candy...

Actually that one popcorn ball is covered with bats and spiders. But I'm digging for a fire ball anyway.

And look, a Dum Dum, a Dum Dum with a curious wrapper.

The wrapper sports a fancy banner proclaiming "100th Anniversary" and under that, the year 1953.

This means the sucker is from 2053, FORTY-FIVE years in The FUTURE!

Hey Lainey, here's proof that at least candy will survive the end of the Mayan calendar!

New years restitution

Time to pay the holiday bills.

I feel overdrawn in funds, metabolism, sleep and creativity.

For the new year, I should be balancing my diet and checkbook. I should do sit-ups and lift weights and run. I should have goals.

And of course I should write.

We will see.
