A really good friend is making a Bobber out of an 80′s Yamaha. He wanted to replace the handlebers with something a little cooler, I said I could help him out, especially since he was working on a Mad Max kinda ethic. I can’t do shiny. (Well, I _can_, I just don’t think I could do two equally shiney parts!)

BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS

Approx 3:30pm, February 4th, my phone was taken from my hands while riding the F train, southbound, at Alameda Station. RTD and Denver police did a GREAT job in returning my property. I declined to press charges.

YOU NEED TO KNOW

There were between 3 and 5 kids, aged 14-17, dressed alike, and stationed at the top of the steps of the train. Their goal is to snatch an item, scatter, and confuse witnesses so that a positive I.D. cannot be made.

THEY NEED TO KNOW

A great many phones cost more than $500 to replace out of contract. Anything above $500 is considered grand theft, in which case the charges are significantly more serious.

LASTLY

They have already done this once. IF it happens to you, PRESS CHARGES.  If it happens again, they obviously did not take my advice to do the right thing.

Adapting to the Holiday Sprit

We got a new Fake (pre-lit, three piece, quick assembling!) X-mas tree this year. When the time came to place the star on top, I discovered there was no mathematical way possible to make it stay put up top.

So I grabbed the calipers and a sheet of paper:

It’s that time again, time for Hauntiholik’s favorite night: Halloween!
