Another revelation. I finally remembered how to fix the 'photo gallery' link at the top of this page, so now it's working again. Now, if I can just avoid screwing it up again somehow...

I also added an 'email' feature to the weblog, so if you see something particularly earth-shattering here someday, you can now email it to your friends, your mama, or even your mama's dog - if the dog has an email address.

That's all. Have fun with it!

Well, I'm in Dublin, Ireland right now doing an installation on a ship. The warehouse we're working in isn't open on the weekends, so I decided to do a little exploring around Dublin. Here's the highlight reel, but I suggest you go check it out in the photo album under 'travel photos'. I somehow found the High Street shopping area, without really knowing where the hell it was. Loads of cool stuff I can't afford right now, but I'll get the chance to go back before I leave. I stumbled around for a while, and found Dublin Castle, which was pretty cool. I even lucked into a sand sculpture exhibition in the castle courtyard that all my art buddies at The Dorsch Gallery would probably like. As usual, most of the pictures are of stuff that only interests me, although I did have the presence of mind to change the captions on them this time right away, so you might be able to have some kind of idea what they're supposed to be pictures of. Oh yeah, I almost forgot - I took a stroll through Alcoholic Hell, the temple bar section of Dublin. Probably 90% of the shops there were bars of some sort. And you were wondering how the Irish get a bad rap for being drunks...

Killer Suburban Good....

Well, I've finally done it now. Due to the availability of a good used set of 36" tires from a friend of mine, I've started the lift on the Suburban. I can honestly say I probably don't want to do this one again. Plan 'A' was always to get the blue truck sorted out and then tackle the Sub with a 6" lift and bigger tires. It turned out that I wrecked the blue truck so that got sidelined, but now with the opportunity to get these tires, I've decided it's time to be a little nicer to the 'burb for a while.



Here's a shot of the rear springs and shackle flip completed. Still have to put the gas tank back in, torque everything down, and install the new shocks.

Just waiting for the van from the mental institution to come around the corner....
