Traditionally the center of Nashville’s nightlife, Printers Alley was, in its earlier days, a series of posts where men bound for the courthouse hitched their horses. By the turn of the twentieth century, it had become the center of Nashville’s printing industry; in its heyday, circa 1915, thirteen publishers and ten printers were located in the area serviced by the alley. Nashville’s two largest newspapers, The Tennessean and the Nashville Banner had their offices here at one time. The street contained hotels, restaurants, and saloons, many of the latter becoming speakeasies when Prohibition went into effect in 1909. Nightclubs opened here in the 1940s, and the alley became a showcase for the talents of performers such as Boots Randolph, Chet Atkins, Waylon Jennings, Dottie West, The Supremes, Hank Williams, Barbara Mandrell, and Jimi Hendrix. Today’s nightclubs are the descendants of the saloons, speakeasies, and clubs which developed into the entertainment district still known as Printers Alley. ~ nashvilledowntown.com/go/printers-alley

The finished version of my LEGO mosaic printer!
Its first true test was printing out the LEGO logo (of course). You can watch the video of it in action over on the YouTubes: youtu.be/Y4neo4fRw2M

This was at the Mountain View, art, and wine festival, yesterday.
I saw this nice lady charging her printer. I asked her if I could shoot a photo of her, she said sure, so, here she is.
This alley in Printers Row, Chicago, has long fascinated me. I can never figure out how to capture the water vapor that is coming from a business on the north end of it, and it's just such a misty, urban scene. Didn't capture that here. I always wonder about the people living in these buildings. Like, where do they get groceries? Are they all divorced or something? How do you end up living in one of these condos, and what does your day look like?
My command of apostrophes is gone. I once taught it. I remember, one evening-- true story--- waking up in a classroom, my head had been face down, cradled by my arm, on a teacher's desk in a trailer-based classroom in Mesa, Arizona. I looked in front of me, and there was my entire GED class--- all adult immigrants, waiting quietly for me to wake up. We delved right into it.
I worked so hard in the early years. I was so sleep-deprived.
My apologies for this self-indulgent post: the only important thing at the moment is that the USA has death squads driving around, sanctioned by Trump. All of these people must be held accountable.
This photo is now outdated, here's the most recent photo of my home office.
Since my photo from THREE years ago of my home office is still my most popular picture, I decided to take an updated photo. We will be moving soon so I don't know how my new home office will look, but I have really been comfortable with this layout for a while now!
The latest update to my LEGO Mindstorms printer project, with the scanning functionality all working.
I'm not sure I can really call this a prototype anymore, since it is pretty much fully functional, but there is still work to do.
