You can make some amazing stuff, including Star Wars pumpkins or for Twilight fans, Edward and Bella. How about Jay Leno? The Kool Aide guy? A Cylon pumpkin? Some tips and links, below.

Oh, Ivar. I welcome you back into my life. It’s been too long, my old friend. The smell of your freshly cut pine (are you pine?) once again fills my office nook. Your presence brings me nearly full circle through my life of home furnishing. I thought you were gone, but you return once again, [...]

Earlier this month, Matt said he wanted to see a picture of my much abused dog. Not abused that way!

The recent daylight savings time shift got me wanting to mention the The World Clock Meeting Planner service. It’s a great thing to use if you need to talk with people in different time zones, plus it’s the closest thing to the ideal clock I’ve long wanted but feel doesn’t exist.

I see that L’Oreal has purchased The Body Shop, the well-known beauty chain much vaunted for its “no animal testing,” environmentally friendly and wholesome image. I’m afraid The Body Shop’s sort of never had that luster for me, however. It involves my face moisturizing lotion. What kind of a man uses face lotion? [...]
