Punkin Chunkin fun…

November 3, 2008

I decided to watch the Discovery Science channel a bit today and saw a show called “Punkin Chunkin.” It was about the pumpkin tossing contest in Delaware showing all the insanely large pumpkin tossing devices including air canons and catapults. I have a few words about this show: I am so building my own punkin chunkin device! And I got a great design concept that will be completely different…world domination will be in my grasp!

Homesteading…

November 2, 2008

This is an interesting concept.  Homesteading is basically living off the land that you own.  You produce and farm everything you need to live right from your own ground and not buy stuff from a store.  Living that kind of life, in my humble opinion, is very noble.  Your footprint on this earth would be minimized just to your property and that would be about it.  Obviously it would take quite lot of external resources to setup a system like this as you would need ways to generate power and equipment to do the farming.  However, after that, you’d be able to be completely self-sufficient until the equipment fails or something else goes wrong that needs external resources.  But, I can definitely see that time frame last around a decade or so.

Quiet day…

November 1, 2008

This has been a fairly quiet day. Not much going on as I await for my surgery in a few days. Besides that, I do wonder how the elections this Tuesday are going to end.
