there were eighty-two thousand people in line at grimaldi's, so we decided to attempt pizza another time. i had to eat a gross salad and fries at fat annie's instead; alas.
this sign is the first thing you see after going, "fuck, well we might as well walk down to the water, since we came all the way out here." fail snail.
I tried to make a gouge from a masonry nail (supposedly hardened steel). After annealing, I used a Dremel and stone to cut the inside of the gouge, then hand filed the outside sweep and the bevel. Then I heat-treated it, quenched it in oil, and tempered it at 400F.
The handle is cut from some green wood from fallen branches I found near a creek during a lunchtime walk. A short length of copper pipe serves as a ferrule.
Unfortunately, after I sharpened the gouge, I tried it out, only to have the edge bend back on itself. A test with another masonry nail showed that I seemed to have heated it hot enough for heat treatment (a magnet no longer stuck), but the metal was still softer than a file after quenching. This is a good reminder to test unknown steel before you make your tools!
I found that the handle also fits 6-inch files, so all is not lost.
In order to succeed in Life, we must make our failures important lessons along the way.
Watched a good friend loose his first mma fight tonight but I am sure he will come back stronger than before. I have failed in many ways but I always try to learn from my mistakes.
"And why do we fall Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up."
It hasn't been a very good day. I had plans to take my camera out and get an actual good shot, but I was busy, it was cloudy, and just other stuff is going on. Earlier in the day, I tried freelensing, also known as the poor man's tilt shift, inspired by Julie Paz's excellent picture from yesterday.
Obviously, it didn't work out as well for me as it did for her, though to be fair, apparently freelensing requires some amount of practice, and this is one of two shots I tried before I had to do some work stuff - hardly counting as practice.
Anyway, I'm having a bad evening and doubt I'll get a better photo before midnight, so this is it.
She's got the hair, face, and attitude...now if only she could do something
about her hang time. Think she needs to go to jump school at her aunt's for
a few days.
3rd attempt to route the cable to the ankle, and I still can't get anything out of it: dead foot. These brake levers only give you about 1cm of movement along the line, and with .25cm of slop in the joint already, I can't seem to get more than 15Ëš of motion for the ankle when I need at least 90Ëš. Fail.
Either I build my own hand levers out of aluminum tomorrow, or I give up and attach the control rods directly to the feet - which sounds like a much less stressful solution. I was originally going to go for attaching directly to the feet, but I was feeling adventurous this morning... not feeling so adventurous anymore.
The Blue Mountain region scca put together a great autocross at Maple Grove Raceway Park, the weather was excellent and the turnout was fantastic!
She was supposed to stand still and I were supposed to put focus right. We both failed a bit.. Still it was a good place to take a photo so I'm sticking with this one.

On the edge of cliffs, happiness never fails
Replenished every newborn second
Retained until the end of time
By those who wish for nothing more
Than a moment to breathe the air
And feel the tide and grasp the rocks
To heart fully give and peace fully live
On the edge of cliffs

Bucky the Beaver had been working on this 20 cm young cottonwood all last autumn. But he miscalculated and felled it too close to the adjacent tree in which it hung up. So he chocked it up as a learning experience and left it hanging. It will be interesting to see if it ever does fall on its own. Cottonwood Island Park, Prince George, BC. April 21, 2022.
Minolta x700, Canon AE-1, failed development. When you learn, you learn! Sharp magenta coloration due to low temperature in development, causing emulsion to not fully degrade. Highlights and shadows have extreme editing to save any detail left on film. It was a beautiful day on the dunes, nonetheless.
Aerial view from of boom meant to protect the coast of Raccoon Island, a barrier island off Terrebonne Parish drifts away from the islands shore where officials reported oil washed up on May 13, 2010 is a bird sanctuary . Splotches of oil and oil sheen from the B. P. well that has been leaking oil into the Gulf of Mexico since April 20th 2010, are visible in the waters around the island. The island is the breeding ground for numerous species of bird including Brown Pelican, Louisiana's State bird.

failed, but i still wanted to put this up.
Since the pano is such a wide image, it's hard to appreciate just how big in the sky this storm cloud was. It took me 5 pics at 18mm to fit it all in. It was raining a couple hundred yards out from the pier, but here it seems so far away.
and you should really really view this large!
A " Fail Pig" graffiti found at Jl Fatmawati Jakarta is a testament of the current Twitter craze in Indonesia.
