So, what happens when you bus 10,000 NYers to DC for a rally? They all try to take the Metro at once. NOT good!

Pic #5) News of the rally 24 hours later--what's NPR on about with that headline? Sounds like bias to me. :\
"Sanity/Fear Rally a protest of the absurd"
Shouldn't that be "protest *against* the absurd"?Saturday, October 30, 2010
We made it to DC and the Rally for #SanityAndOrFear
There was like no signal for livestreaming but we shot a BUNCH of stuff and this is just some of it! We're on our way home on the HuffPo bus now, man!

Welcome to October in NYC! The high today will be 74F while the temp tomorrow will drop like a rock to the high 50s. Yeah, we can't figure it out either :\
Mother Nature: reminding us to check the weather reports daily or freeze our butts off on the way to the subway.

Wow--I never wanted to be a Soul Reaper when I was a kid dressing up for Halloween.
Considering how parents groups get hyper about so many things kids are exposed to these days I'm a little surprised that I found this costume at Target. It caught my attention because, at first, I didn't see that first "e" in "reaper". Still, the costume seems a lot darker than a vampire or a werewolf.
To be fair, though, I have heard that children do sap their parents' souls right out of them.Thursday, October 14, 2010

Progress, but still not done with this fricken papercraft Lego minifig!!
One fricken arm left on this absurdly complicated papercraft model!
It's so frustrating--this thing can only be built by the likes of Edward Tweezerhands! ARG!!!!
FLICK!
Ahhh, that felt good...
The George Washington Bridge was wearing purple tonight. Not sure why.
Thanks to winter not quite being here yet, there were too many trees blocking the view, so I tried to get a closer shot, but the iPhone 3G's "zoom" kinda sucks in low light. :\
Still, you get the idea.

Got the Lego minifig papercraft arm done--damn complicated! Used almost as much Scotch Tape as paper!
Everything up top goes into the arm. Except that long piece with the serated bits. That's the neck, I think.
Building a papercraft Lego man progress shot
Building this while listening to raw audio I am cutting for the 666cast crom website666.com.
This is hard without instructions... not sure where all this goes.

I think I burned the microwave popcorn. What do you think?
We either need a new brand or a new microwave. Probably the latter since my mom got it for me a year before I went to college... in 1989. O_O
