After viewing this YouTube video on how to make your own Silly Putty, my friends and I could resist. We went out and got the ingredients and went to town. You can see the pictures below, but the final product (mine anyway) was pretty good. It’s a little stronger than regular silly putty, but it passes my three tests: the newspaper copy, bounciness and that cool pop sound silly putty makes. An added bonus is the outside of it is not a prone to picking up any particle that happens to touch it. It did harden a little over night when I left it out, but that was nothing working with it couldn’t fix. It’s a fun (kind of messy!) project if you are looking for something to do.

Announcements

Just a few general things:

  • My brother is selling his guitar. If you are interested, drop me a line!
  • It’s that time of the year: The Weblog Awards. Last year I found some pretty awesome ones and I hope this year I will too. (Also, getting nominated for best-kept secret would be cool too- polls close tomorrow at 10pm eastern time).
  • While I will not contribute to the hype that is the iPhone, I will say, it looks totally awesome.

That’s about it!

Page Nav

Just a bit of site news: I finally added buttons at the bottom of the main page to navigate through older pages. Click Previous to see older pages and Next to see newer pages. Later!

UPDATE: My friend Dan (of What’s on my Bookshelf fame) was so gracious as to redesign the side bar and page navigation buttons to make them look a little (ok, a lot) nicer. This of-course has sparked something in me to go around the site updating somethings to make it look and feel a little more “Web 2.0.” So look out in the next few weeks for some changes! around these parts!


I have moved in at school for the semester and as of right now I am not getting internet in my room. I need to run a wire up to it, and I hate running wires. I am trying to pick up WiFi but it’s not working out. I am fixing the problem ASAP!!

UPDATE: It’s working now. More posts soon


I just added a bunch of video games (PS2, XBox) and DVDs to my Half.Com Store. So check it out! Later
