• The last few days have been rather hectic, as shows in my recent posts – my focus has been a bit all over.  Work has been rather crazy, several major outages and other critical work, resulting in long hours.  And we have had a resurgence in interest in Ark: Survival, starting from scratch on the […]

  • As a project for the Cub Scouts, for this year’s summer camp, I am constructing a pair of sling-shot style catapults for the kids.  This weekend was the final time I have to finish them, and I managed to complete all the pieces and do at least a test assembly.  The real test of course […]

  • Unfortunately, timing and events conspired, and I broke my recent string of consistent posting each weekday yesterday.  As such, my count gets to reset back to 0, and I start again.  Overall, not a bad run, I think I managed nearly 2 months of consistent little articles, which for me is a personal best.  And […]

  • The good news is that I will have a longer period of time before I am backlogged by our ongoing Pathfinder gaming schedule, and the associated video production.  The bad news is that it is because we will not be playing the campaign during this week’s scheduled sessions.  With school wrapping up, we have players […]

  • Entering the world of YouTube video creation has been an interesting journey so far, with several challenges.  How to handle the stresses of posting regular videos, and handling the feedback associated.
