5 Things I Love For Friday #34

Simply put: Jello scares me. It’s creepy. Do I need to say more?

  1. Hydraulic ejectors - A type of white water rapid. The one in question this week is that which launched our tour guide wickedly high into the air. Thus allowing him to perform a backflip off our boat. Don’t believe me? Watch the video.
  2. Crown molding - Until I had a house that warrented it (read: not an apartment), I’ve been dying to put up molding, casing, etc. around every door, ceiling and window. Every time I look at a room with well constructed and appropriately-styled accents, a little piece of me melts. Yea, I said it. And don’t get me started on wainscotting.
  3. Baby gates with style - FOR THE DOG, yo. No half-pints anytime soon around our house. These gates whip the crap out of the half-broken, ugly and yellowed ones we’ve scavenged. Ah well.
  4. Sweetie - Scott Wynn of Innersync Studio fame is trying to take his musings up a notch. Lo-fi is in, ya’ll. And if the logo is whack, it’s because I did it in less than 10 minutes. Had I known it was a more legit venture…
  5. The THX Sound (and how it was made) - Appropriately geeky interview with the man who created the infamous sound. Yet another thing that everyone takes for granted, that involves a staggering amount of work. Wow.

Today’s lesson? Don’t eat Jello. I have no idea how this lesson was illustrated in this week’s FTILFF, but trust me, it’s there. Somewhere.

Did You Know?

Just Too Punk Rock

15 minutes after getting my first ear piercing (with a cheap stud), I tried to put a hoop in instead.

Needless to say, that failed and I had to repierce the ear again with the stud in Matt's bathroom.
