Insular script.

i got here from half-uncial. i don’t know how i got there, since previously i had been reading about the history of the potato.

before that, i was reading an article on garum, which led me to worcestershire sauce. (my Erstwhile Helpmeet feels like fish sauces in general may very [...]

Motorized Skates + Unicycle = [wtf?]

i’mma quote from Neatorama here because i… just am not sure how i feel about this.

I’m not sure if this should be called a set of motorized skates, a motorized unicycle, or something else. At any rate, the FlyRad pulls the user around while wearing roller skates. It can reach speeds [...]

For Great Justice

it’s rally weekend!

i’m afraid i’m on the Trod right now, and cannot pick up the Internet. I’m probably at gymkhana or riding up in the mountains or dancing with the rest of the Lost Fleet or possibly abducting some innocent creature, but one may definitely be assured that i am fomenting Wild Rumpus [...]

if by “remarkable”you mean “the most insane thing i have seen all day”

The remarkable-but internationally misguided- George Barris Rick Shaw was created for the 1970 World’s Fair in Osaka, Japan. The engine was a 400 cubic inch Chevrolet with a power glide transmission complete and a Hurst shifter. The radiator shell was designed as a “coolie” hat cover while the exhaust headers are [...]

Protest leaves no room to park

More than two blocks of parking along Vancouver's Robson Street were occupied by a chain of motorcycles and scooters Saturday to protest parking policies that riders say are a waste of space.

Rally organizer Ian Tootill said about 75 to 100 people showed up to draw attention to a city policy that requires all motorcyclists [...]

firstly. i admire what you guys are trying to do. i respect the spirit in which it is intended.

but i think it’s amusingly stupid, and i will tell you why.

the WBC are professional trolls. they are a rather inbred clan of lawyers, supported [...]

FLY, YOU FOOLS!

this is a tolkien-derived geekout. if you do not know already that i am a towering tolkien geek of some 20+ years, you may want to leave, unless geekouts fascinate you in a morbid fashion. it’s not too long i lied. it’s long and you won’t understand most of [...]

Bicycle crime fighter vs. scooter villians | TheScooterScoop

HAH!

Bicycleman wins. From what I understand a lady in Wenzhou, China had her purse snatched by a couple of thugs on a scooter, she screams. Just seconds later security cameras catch a bicycling bystander calmly dismounting his bicycle and then forcefully hurling it at the criminals sending them sliding down the pavement. The moral [...]

i’ve been quiet lately because i’m in one of those places in life when there doesn’t seem much to say.

it’s not that there isn’t anything going *on*. it’s just that nothing seems adequate to say about the things i’m doing. i suppose it’s less apathy than a conviction that pictures say more than i [...]

my mom was beautiful, in a holistic, gestalt way that i am not.

mom’s life had great integrity, in a way that, at my age, i seem to be convinced that mine never will.

mom loved all her children. each and every single one. individually and as people, individual people. she never forgot any of [...]
