“Saturn gets Edgy”
Author: mike d.
Dec 26th

I love Phil Plait’s bad astronomy section of Discover. It is reliably filled with awesome information.

Take this article for instance. It talks a bit about Saturn’s rings and our somewhat unique orientation to those rings. Before you click over and read the article, take a guess as to how thick Saturn’s rings are.

Yay Space!

an interesting program.

The red ‘people’ can’t touch the ground. If they do, the program modifies the car slightly and tries again.

Weekend

February 28th, 2005 by mike d. in House of Rock

currently eating: a chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, and a dab of miracle whip served on wheat bread.

I got a ton of work done this weekend. My parents came down to CT for Saturday and helped me with a substantial amount of work on the House of Rock. It was great to see them and we got a ton done. Thanks rents!

A highlight to all the work was laying down a concrete leveling compound in our Mud room. It was extremely fun. My Dad and I mixed the stuff in a huge bucket, and then poured and spread the concrete across the floor. It had the consistency and color of Chocolate Jello Pudding. The end result was a magical dark smooth concrete floor.

I did not taste the concrete, but I would imagine it did not taste like chocolate jello pudding.
