Support Small Store Saturdays

2011-12-01T23:58:00.000-08:00

Sustainable economic power begins at home. During this holiday season, consider what you can do to support your local economy. Generally speaking, small businesses provide better service for comparable prices.

~ 6 cents of every dollar spent with a BIG BOX RETAILER is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Rocky Mountain Institute
~ 20 cents of every dollar spent with a CHAIN STORE is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Small Business Administration
~ 68 cents of every dollar spent with a SOLE PROPRIETOR/INDEPENDENT RETAILER is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Civic Economics, Chicago-based economic development consultancy
~ A dollar spent at a locally-owned store is usually spent 6 to 15 times before it leaves the community. From $1, you create $5 to $14 in value within the community. - Northwest Earth Institute's Choices for Sustainable Living

"Small businesses create two out of three new jobs, keep local economies alive and sustain our neighborhoods." -Ironton Tribune

Lazer Tits

2010-10-14T19:10:00.000-07:00

From the lazertits.com website:

"LAZERTITS.COM was ROBBED last night!! They took almost every last one of the TIT-TEES and all of the LAZERBRAS!! If ANYONE has ANY info at all, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write to us at lazertits@hotmail.com. AND, If you see someone slingin’ tees on a street corner, LAZER beam him in the face, take the box of TiT-TEES and run to the nearest internet cafe to let us know you’ve solved the crime of the century. Man, we’re so bummed. The tees, the costumes and our trust in humanity, GONE in one fell swoop."

Our love goes out to lazertits.com and we hope this crime is solved!

"Oh, yeah, that's right. That's what's it's all about, all right. But talkin' about it and bein' it, that's two different things. I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace. Of course, don't ever tell anybody that they're not free, 'cause then they're gonna get real busy killin' and maimin' to prove to you that they are. Oh, yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em. "

Brick path

2010-04-07T21:43:00.000-07:00

Here is the brick path I laid last week. The bricks were salvaged from several different sources. Not nearly as easy to lay as when all the bricks are the same size and shape, but a much richer effect.

Interesting...

"Claude Bernard showed that if a bird is placed under a bell-glass of such size that the air contained in it will permit the bird to live for three hours, and the bird is removed at the end of the second hour, when it could have survived another hour, and a fresh, healthy bird is put in it's place, the latter will die at once" (Kirks Physiology, revised by Greene, P. 304)

The tractor is coming along. Still needs quite a bit of work, but here she is so far:

The tractor will tow a 12'x15' trailer topped with a 6'x10' cabin with a wrap around covered porch and a rooftop deck. I just got the trailer today to use as the base for the cabin. I tend to build everything out of old, free, inexpensive, used stuff, and repurposed waste.

Here is my list of sought after materials:

old corrugated metal roofing or siding

barn wood

old fence boards

cool old lighting fixtures (house or auto, working or not)

1 x 1 square steel tubing

plywood

spoked wheels (auto or motorcycle)

wooden windows
weather vane

cool old style architectural features

Not the best pic, but the only one I have. I am going to get one of these things asap.
