I’m finally pulling my head out of my frantic Burning Man preparations. I’ll soon tell you about mostly flying the Trick 1000 buying last minute parts making Ma’at in EL wire pulling a mostly-nighter for Ma’at taking a utility knife to Ma’at Seeing Rush in concert Seeing Stevie in Albany Seeing Jen et all in […]

The bike for Burning Man is sweet. It’s in my back seat right now. From the ad: MOUNTAIN BIKE, 7 spd Trek, Antelope 820, used 3 times $99. (It’s actually a 21 speed, but that’s ok) And it was exactly as advertised.
I’m buying a used mountain bike for Burning Man through the Want Ad Press. So much for the miracle of eBay. Actually, the problem with eBay here is: 1 – It’s hard to examine the merchandise online. 2 – shipping for a bike is like $50… 1/2 the selling price of the bike!

First flight was with the help of a new friend, Dan, who lives just down the street from me. I guess I’ve been having some bad days and it’s surfaced…. My car’s battery is dead. It’s a bit stressful that I can’t drive where and when I want. So I went to the field in […]

I’m about 3/4 finished putting it together. I’ve had two problems…. first, nesail.com sent me 14″ servo extensions when I only needed 4″ extensions. The extra 10″ is a pain to stow away on such a small plane so I went to Kenvil Hobbies and bought 6″ extensions. They fit great. Second thing: I couldn’t […]

I‘ve been Match-ing for a couple days… It’s quite stressful. We bottled our wine a couple days ago. I’ve been ComputerGuying at a pace. I’m very worried that there isn’t enough money to be made in the residential market though. I’m joining the Hackettstown Rotary Club. That might help. I sure hope. Construction on the […]

I just bought a Projeti electric flying wing and brushless motor set. It promises to go 3 times as fast as the Zagi, still with amazing acrobatics. I’m taking it to Burning Man in August. It’s going to need a more artistic paint job than what comes out of the box. Too bad I don’t […]

One of the first great things I did when I moved to San Francisco in 2005 was go to the DNA Lounge with new friends and saw The Motet. What an amazing place with such energy! I’ve been back a few times, sharing the place with new and old friends. Years later, I got to […]
