I just made a whistle

Posted by O. on Feb 1, 2010 in Uncategorized

Here is the working whistle I printed out at home. I downloaded the file from here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1046 and 24 minutes later I whistled away. Pretty fun.

I trained my dog to jump out the kitchen window

Posted by O. on Oct 17, 2009 in Uncategorized

So we have finally completed our dog run. We started it in 2007, with grabbing aluminum fencing that our neighbor was throwing away.


We just wanted to double up the uprights so that the dogs wouldn’t be able to see out(and bark at the neighbors when they walk by). In order to do that I had pull uprights off of other fence pieces. IN that process I chopped up the pieces, Which reminded me of the old TV show Space:1999.

So now they dog run is complete by the side of the house. We built some steps from the dog run up to the window sill in the kitchen. Right now it is a totally closed off area, so the dogs get in and out thru the kitchen window. So in the morning the Mazie wants to go outside so we go downstairs and I open the kitchen window and she jumps out. Cloda needs a little help.

I’ll get some pictures up soon. I thought it was a crazy idea at first, but it kinda works.

Posted by O. on Aug 26, 2009 in Uncategorized

ETC is about singing songs, making music and theatre. One notable part of that is when we perfrom our children’s show over at Camp Dost

 Although it is a summer theatre school there is our school song traditionally called our ‘camp song’ even though we are not a camp. But of course it is not a traditional song.

Deer caught in the headlights

Posted by O. on Oct 16, 2008 in Uncategorized

Found Via theHuffington Post-

McCain mentioned “Joe the Plumber” almost constantly throughout the final debate — even tying him into an attack on Obama’s health care plan. But the move led to a “deer in the headlights” moment for the Republican.
