I have started a journey to Portland, OR.
My flight leaves this morning at 6:30 out of Bradley to Phoenix, AZ. I’ll stay there for an hour or two and then zip up to Portland - arriving at 12:45 West Coast time. This will be the first time I’ve been west of Kansas.
Stay tuned for updates

P: “that’s really strange.”
Mike D: “What are some of our options? we really need to provide good bearings to our customers.”
P: “I agree. I’ll have an engineer call you.”
Mike D.: “okay. What’s the guy’s name who will be calling me?”
P: “Rob Schnieder.”
Mike D.: “Rob Schnieder’s going to call me?”
P: “yes.”
Mike D.: “THE Rob Schnieder?”

Whenever I’m wheeling a cart around the grocery store or the shop floor at work I am hard pressed not to kick off, jump on, and ride that cart for a few meters.
I hope I never grow out of this desire.

While this video isn’t of as high a quality as the first, it’s still kind of entertaining. My project partners and I made this video to try and portray the Fatalist perspective. The audio isn’t very good because of the karaoke version of comfortably numb that we downloaded. Also… the second half of the clip isn’t well matched between audio and visual… and the video was recorded with the backlight on. But whatever. It’s still kind of funny.
Enjoy!

Back!
Sorry about that little vacation there. I was really fed up with stuff and figured that anything I posted would have been far too self-critical to make for fun reading. Anyway, what’s new? Well this past weekend was a mix of work and play. Our presentation on Friday night went really really well. It was very well received by both the class and the professor. I’m proud of the result. You can see two of our 6 clips over in the features section on the left. The grapevine one is a higher quality clip, so I’d recommend that one if you only have time for one.
I still have a few more projects to do for my other class, but hopefully they won’t be too painful and I’ll be able to get through the week smoothly. Then I will be on summer break which will be totally righteous.
Saturday night I saw The Dark Knight. It was excellent. And Sunday was climbing and BBQ. Unfortunately, my Monday started with not enough sleep and ended with a very stressful evening. Work is heavy at the moment, I’m in the midst of the assembly phase of my project. We continue to identify problems as they come up and tackle them as quickly as possible, but it’s a tiring process. I’m certain everything will come together, it’s just how smooth that path will be.
Anyway, I hope you’re all well. Posts should continue for the remainder of this week.
