Old forts, cool cars, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Drums, Guitars, Synths & Gear, CAD, Apollo/Skylab, and too much crap cluttering my room.

For timeline traffic management, I may or may not follow back. Nothing personal!

/13 Why? For proximity to power. For prestige. For attention.

Some tongues were made to praise God. Some tongues were made to sing. Some were made for poetry, some for prose, some to agitate and some to soothe.

But some tongues were made for the boot.

There was a smashed flatscreen TV, half a small catamaran, a couple of bikes.
The road was completed in May 2009; the wrecked Museum/Auditorium was still in progress in 2011; and I haven't seen the place since then.
I miss the fort...and that quiet.

The only non-plant life I encountered was a nervy, annoyed armadillo who also didn't want people around.
At Battery Worth, part of the parking lot was given over to all the recovered junk from ruined offices, the store, the museum. Drink machines, water fountains, desks, chairs... /2

That was TODAY? Dammit...instead of lounging and relishing my One Day Of The Year (tm, heheheh), I spent it digging out under my desk and moving stuff around to open some floor space. WORKING!
