I know I’m not the first, probably won’t be the last to have a problem with the Mighty Mouse.
Almost exactly 2 years ago my lovely sister bought me an Apple Mighty Mouse for my birthday. It was ha been good to me for almost that long. Unfortunately in the past 6 months it’s [...]
I live in in the past, so I still have a non HD 4:3 TV, and it works great!
Well it works great after I fixed it. I recently moved to a new apartment and after moving the TV in and hooking everything up all was well. A few days later I had been [...]
Tool rentals at your local library!
This is a fantastic idea! Read all about it over at Toolmonger!
Sure, there still are catalogs, but the fact is the internet is taking their place.
Don’t get me wrong I still love catalogs and get many in the mail. Most if not all have website to order from these days but they still print the catalogs. I think they are to remind you to [...]
Sometimes things that mystified you as a kid make perfect sense as an adult.
When I was a kid the first ‘big’ Swiss Army Knife I got was the Huntsman model. It had, two knife blades, a saw, scissors, can opener, bottle opener, awl, and a cork screw. As a kid I knew was [...]

I present to you the Anchor Steam Titanium [...]
Free bikes aren’t always free.
A while back a bought a cool fixed gear bike from my buddy Geoff and a couple days later I picked up another bike from him for free. This bike was a 1996 Specialized Rockhopper which was given to him by a mutual friend of ours, Khayman, when he moved [...]
PDX = Portland to those in the know!
My host, Mr. K, would probably back hand me for calling Portland PDX like some emo hipster, but that’s OK. He can’t reach from where he is. With that said the drive up was long but relatively uneventful. There was one 30 [...]
Taj Mihelich builds a BMX multi-tool!
I recently bought a DK Random Wrench when I was building my cruiser simply because it looked like a great idea and it is. I need swap out a couple of the sockets to make more useful for me, but it’s great. I was poking around some of [...]
