not aluminet

Yah, it's not aluminet but the cheaper plastic shade cloth in the color red (hopefully). But I am so glad to hear that the clips don't break, and that they grab the edges of the unfinished aluminet well. I have to assume, but will call the company, that shade cloth holds up as well as aluminet. Than...

Plastic Clip-Its with Shade Cloth - Advice?

Hi all, This year we are making a new shade covering for our dome. We are thinking red 80% shade cloth cut into hexagons. I have some questions for any of you who've embarked down this path: 1. Can you just cut the shade cloth any way you like without fraying or do the edges need to be finished on a...

"Russian Ark"

Anyone seen it? One long continuous shot (90 minutes), while walking through the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, through many time periods of Russian history. It's fantastic.

Personally I thought poodle referred to your mop, your hair. Just like "dogs" refers to your feet.

Or it may refer to a nether region also endowed with hair.
As: "Grooming the Poodle" refers to cunnilingus.
food for thought.

ever seen those car commercials? They are making shitloads of car/SUV/minivan commercials out there. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over that. Commercials are shot using brand-new cars.

T shirts

Certainly. Can I have one?

In fact, I silk screened a bunch of shirts and handed them out as gifts at bman. Now wouldn't it be funny to get one that someone else screened?

It's the Burning Way, isn't it?

See, I thought Satan might've been associated with "Steal Your Soul" camp, but he was not, that I can see. But I had a friend who passed by said soul stealing camp shouting angry epithets. For this I apologize, she was only looking out for her best friend's best interests. The reason why? Satan stol...

fly it high, upsidedown!

i had a good chuckle seeing the American Flag flown upsidedown. It made the little gears TURN TURN TURN in my head. Not that it is necessarily "unAmerican." It can mean other, more thought provoking, things.

Another thing to get the gears turning:
