Microwaveable Jewelry
I hope most of you know that I do stained glass. If you don't you can't properly call me a friend. I do stained glass, but I also do fused glass (where you put glass in designs in a giant-cylinder-oven-thing to roast at 1500 degrees). The kiln (the giant-cylinder-oven-thing) I have is about 2 feet in diameter, but recently, I just got a tiny, microwave kiln. You heat up the kiln not through electricity or gas, but with the microwave, hence the name. Here's the process: first, you make a design, approximately fifteen to twenty minutes. Then, you stick it in the microwave kiln and microwave it for three minutes. Upon taking it out, you have to let it sit for about half an hour, to let the glass cool, while it is bright hot orange. Then, you can take it out, but have to leave the kiln to sit for another half hour. This process of one and a half hours is much more convenient than an eight hour excursion. Then, voila!!! You have whatever you made, a necklace, earrings, whatever fit inside there. Hah, who would've known, jewelry baked in a microwave!

Who would've know that garfield and Jon were such pranksters...
Hi, this is my first post, and... uh... yeah.
So here I go, everybody knows that Halloween is coming up, so I thought I would just get us all into the "Halloween mood" with a few funny cartoons. After all, there's nothing wrong with a few jokes, right? (I hope you find these funny... :P)






Now, you tell me, WERE THOSE FUNNY OR WHAT! (I really hope you could see them... or did I paste them in wrong...)

Living Life Lively
When someone asks you definition of life, how would one answer?Would one explode in a full scientific spiel?Noun:1.The condition that distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional... Or would you prefer something softer such as: The time one spends on planet earth as an active organism. Still, you could single yourself in on religion and try: the time on land before God takes you home. How ever you define life, has much to do with how you live life... or so I think. The scientific definer would in my eyes appear as an intelligent human with knowledge of the world, possible a doctor or scientist who cares about living with a surplus, or maybe one who simply reaps knowledge and does not wish for money or fame. The middlest choice might as well be a doctor or researcher, just it might not seem as likely... do you see know how much one can assume and interpret from an indivduals definition of live... imagine what one could grasp from definition of love. It all has to do with attentivenes... Don't YOU think?
