I think I should write this off as a business expense

Several weeks ago, I broke down and bought a digital camera. Honestly, I cannot remember whether I actually posted that information on this blog. If I didn't, you now know. I would like to think that I am now nearly a bonafide (which comes up misspelled in Mozilla, but okay in the dictionary - in other news, "okay" is also coming up misspelled...) reporting photographer.

Because there has always been high demand for news involving strange places to put a basketball hoop, I felt obligated to take a snapshot of a first-hand account with a strangely placed rim. Yep, it is conveniently on the side of a pork vendor's trailer. Or maybe I should say "dangerously". Yes, if you will notice, it is in fact over the door of the trailer.

Lastly, I am still in need of antiques. I have found some stuff, but it has yet to be my own.

Have I got some incredible items for you!

I may still be looking for antiques, but I no longer need to look anywhere else for zero-volume, one-sided, non-orientable klein bottles! (More information available here). In other news, I believe this post may break records for its links/word ratio.

The Snowman and Me

This belated picture comes to us courtesy of my personal paparazzi. This may look odd, but only because you don't know the snowman. I can't even explain it here - you've just got to know the snowman.

What's it like to have a sense of dignity?

Coming Soon - Adventure #232F

Several weeks ago, while I was in a wild state of mind, I did something a little crazy. Something that most people wouldn't admit to even if they were one of the few who tried it. I threw my hat into...

the "Antiques Roadshow" lottery for a Louisville show. I had done it once before and (of course) didn't make it. However, this time it was different. I received a notice that I would soon receive tickets and gave me information on logistics for items to be appraised.

Now, it should come to no surprise to those who know me that I don't actually have items I can get appraised. Instead, I'll have to go rooting around for anything I can find in the meantime. However, I understand the TI-82's are getting up there in age. If anybody has an ancient Greek artifacts, though, it would probably be better...
