Nays And Ayes

Oct 31, 2011 20:35

Nay, I am not dressing up for Halloween this time around. I'm just not in a party mood. We're ready for the little kid crowd if they come by, but they usually don't around here, because the schools and churches bend over backwards to throw parties for them.

Truth is, the level of discourse on the Web today scares me more than any haunted-house story. People just can't get along. The bad times have been bad so long that it's bringing out the bad in everybody. I just wonder how much worse it can get, or if it will ever get any better.

Aye, I received a JC Whitney Catalog for the first time in probably a decade today. It's not as much fun as it used to be, but it's all color (as opposed to NO color except the cover back in 1974 when I first saw them!) and the coolest stuff is included. The whole idea now is to point customers at their website or their phone sales line and have them place orders that way...you can't exactly buy much mail older from the catalog like you used to.

Moonshine could probably use some of the tweaks offered by Whitney, but the main brainstorm is still the as yet unacquired Bradley. I noticed that the site Electricar is a blog about a likeable project car, and I'll probably go over as much of that as I can.

MORE TO COME.
