# the shading is superb, I must concur.
In other news, tell me more of these perpetual motion lamps you mentioned earlier. I enclose my £5.

# I was going to try and design a solar generator using lots of little ones.
Then I realised that I had no idea where to go from that point and watched tv instead.

or put up some official-looking signs that say shit like

DISPOSAL OF HUMAN WASTE IN GREEN BINS FORBIDDEN BY LAW or

NO FLYING TENTS IN THIS AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT.

# I'm kind of enjoying the casual observer role at the moment.
Maybe if things get boring I'll spice it up, but right now I just really like being surprised.

Also, the tent was a lot more enjoyable than the shitrags.

There were three police officers in that van, and they were all there three hours later when I went out again. THAT'S SOME GOOD POLICING FELLAS.

# good plan.
we have an odd neighbourhood thing going on - there's a huge wide bit of pavement beside a corner store that really isn't for parking or much of anything, but it has a couple of disused planters standing on it. someone's been putting food for homeless people there for at least a year, and a few of us in the 'hood have been wondering about it.

i guess if i were homeless i'd eat it, but i've seen bags of ground coffee there and jars of mustard. i was thinking of eating some of the stuff to see if it's poisoned or something and starting a dangerfood blog. i did get some coffee from a sidewalk box a while ago, but it was sealed so i felt safe.

*note: in my neighbourhood people commonly put boxes out on the sidewalk for others to rummage through. it's usually books and the like, though, not food*

# also: lolcops.
3 cops x 3 hours = waste of fucking money. were they awake or could you have spray-painted their van?

# that's not the right name for them, but i can't recall what they're called.
they're the round (sometimes oval) lamps where the outer shell is paper or plastic or acetate, and the inner shade is acetate and it spins around a bulb. they typically have chase scenes drawn on them here, and are aimed at kids. i see promo ones for crappy disney movies sometimes.

i bought one cheap, ripped it apart and drew new chase scenes on a sheet of acetate then replaced the dolphins-on-acetate that the original had.

i know they have a name, but i can't think of it.

# I got one as a kid from my grandma.
It was a german christmas-type thing. It had spinning cherub-types, and they'd ring bells while they span around.

My mum hated it.

# It was a candle thingy.
I had an open fire in my bedroom as a kid.

My mum just used to hate the bells.
