This one is in honor of K's upcoming thesis proposal defense, or as certain oceanographers call it, "qualifier", as well as anybody in Hanover who's working on similar thesis milestones.
It's not really an excuse for the way that I've fallen out of correspondence, but let's just say that we're both ready to have this finished up. 🙂
While searching for previous thesis-related posts, it was fun (and amazing) to realize that the blog's been around for a little more than six years now.
Here's a random sample of the high-quality product back in the early days. Brought a smile to my face, if not yours.
P.S. supertux!

We are, very fortunately, NOT in the process of moving. Whenever K and I see a moving van, or others in the neighborhood carrying boxes or whatnot in/out of places, we high-five and are very glad to not be relocating.
This weekend, however, I needed to dig up some old class notes, and naturally that involved opening up several boxes trying to find the right one - and in so doing unearthed a bunch of fun (and dull) memories that reminded me of this friend-of-a-friends' post about digging up things from a little further back.
So, blogosphere, what school project from elementary school do you still remember? The first one that came to my mind was a "fog picture" in 1st grade, where constructed a scene from construction paper and wax paper, placing the background/distant items on the bottom, then laying down a sheet of wax paper, then the middle ground cutouts, then more wax paper, and then finally foreground items, with one more sheet of wax paper. Pretty clever idea really. I've no idea where that thing is, but I do remember it had whales in it. Funny, that.
Borrowing/continuing from last week's post, Nathaniel I don't know if you saw this note on TUAW, where a reader has constructed an iPhone/SLR lens mounting system:
Kinda silly, but that's not really the point. : )
(Thanks to Deadspin for this.)
It's a slow Sunday, but this clever bit from a Canadian adult entertainment company is worth a chuckle or two, or at least a chuckle and a half. Who knows, maybe they just grabbed some outtakes from Girls Next Door?
