Inspired by a thousand year old Native American bone necklace, Jan Yager crafts necklaces out of crack vials found in her Philadelphia neighborhood. We have a library copy of this series and it has some good stuff.

those floating mexican skeletons were right, my life is over
On an unrelated note, for the past week, Floyd and I have been using the Batman voice to narrate the mundane details of our domestic existence. When I accidentally used the Batman voice to address another neighborhood parent at the school bus stop early one morning, Floyd was literally DOL and almost wound up ROSL.

we got cable
Well, we got a cable, a six dollar SVA to RCA cable which now connects a three year old laptop to an eight year old analog television. No more cd+r sneakernet to the beloved but now deprecated DVP642 with its limited DivX support and unruly interpretation of Qpel. Hello SNES emulation on a CRT like the gods and Shigeru Miyamoto intended. Also, hello strange world of Matroska encoded video.This is not a digital media center as it would appear in the pages of Wired magazine, but we are having fun with it.
