It’s not in the name…
Filed under Sparrow
My first public entry about an idea I had was back on Friday, January 16, 2004. On that day I started my project and called it “GSAR” then renamed it “RBS” then “Thunderbird” and now “Sparrow” for Single Pellet Assault Rifle Remote Operated Weapon. The “Sparrow” category includes these formerly named subcategories which in turn, provides a timeline for the project in general. After about 7 years now, I have completed a working, and functioning quite well, prototype. I find it a bit hard to believe I got the problems worked out. Call me persistent, stubborn or obsessed, maybe even stupid to build such a thing but, I loved the challenge and the learning that goes/went with it. Pictures will come soon!

I am a fish
not knowing
why I am
I am a fish
flopping around in a dry creek bed
not knowing
why I am
I am a fish
where is the water
without the water
why I am
will not matter
I am a fish
the water
my flopping
It matters
why I am

I really should be spending time vacationing while actually (much hated word of the decade) on vacation, ya know. Needless to say I have taken on another new adventure on the wild and crazy Web. Since loosing control over stupid about a month ago, I figured it was time I regain it and start hosting my own websites. Might as well host others also and hopefully make some extra dinero. I didn’t stop to think about how much work it would take as usual but, I don’t mind. As long as progress is being made. So far I have accomplished setting up so much software my head is spinning. Two new websites had to be put on the map and three moved to the other two. I know, it’s just dribble. Eventually I’ll get done with it all and most of the changes will appear automagically on Twitter (account1) (account2) and Facebook feeds. Got to keep up or get left behind!

Passion and soul
Filed under Personal Speak
Relationships are not jobs. You don’t just show up to do the work and complete a set number of tasks and go home. Relationships are not about work, they are about exchanges between people with loving hearts and passionate spirits. Most importantly with any relationship, your days should be full of passion, spirit and joy, you do not want to live each day with just “busy work”. Busy work days are filled with justification and rationalization. Do something and you get a perceived result. A result everyone expects. This does not address what your soul seeks it only addresses what you have rationalized or justified and what your “mind thinks” is good for you. Read the rest of this entry…
Moving on
Filed under Art Work, Personal Speak
Well, another big change in thinking. In with the new out with the old. Same old thing, to something else. Live to work not, work with purpose. These are all simple thoughts that make an artist or creative type throw out what’s familiar in order to change things up. Point the creative forces to better targets. Read the rest of this entry…

Going on with swinging sticks theme
Filed under Art Work
Much to my delight I was able to fine tune my earlier design. Whilst immersed in such an adventure it dawned on me that I was sweating and therefor needed to cool down and that’s when the idea struck me. Why don’t I make an air conditioner? So, not only did I build an air condition using my double pendulums (known as swinging sticks to laymen) but I also added a purification system to the design. Quite simple- works wonderfully! Check out the pictures and video… Read the rest of this entry…

When I stop to see where I am, I don’t know where to look first.
Filed under Art Work
Funny but true. What about this- I like the creative process, with me it usually does not take a specific direction while I look for some type of positive result. No actual start or end, just a process that starts going and eventually stops. Never mind, its just psycho babble
