MGblues Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Finally got over some gnarly hip and back issues and decided to start bicycling for the exercise. All I need is a single speed cruiser with coaster brakes. I picked up this 70's era Murray Le Mans in excellent condition yesterday for a measly $70.00. Last evening was the first time I've been on a bike in 32 years!

rozone Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I'm currently finishing up the final mixes to my new album that I've been working on for just over a year now.

TrixieFaux Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Okay this is kind of awesome. For those with kids (or maybe for yourself) there is a really fun free app called "Video Star". You can play a song and make a video to it using different simple effects. This was our first attempt at making one w/our daughter singing along to her favorite song, "Ghetto Love" by Spinnerette: " SStu 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=4#findComment-45071 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heidi Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 My husband and I are big fans of horse racing...we decided, almost on a whim, to get this particular mare off the track and retired to a good home. We had been following her for three years and she was quickly disappearing into the cracks, so I felt compelled to at least TRY to get her. Local writer for the Daily Racing Form caught wind of our project and did a little piece on it, it was really cool, and I hope it inspires other people: Retired racehorses: One fan does her part to find mare a home | Daily Racing Form SnowyPlover, gougetheeyes, hogg and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=4#findComment-45214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugilist Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Reviving this thread partly 'cause I love it, partly because I have something to add in terms of awesome things I've done recently.

cwbyht Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I was recently appointed to my cities ADA Advisory Board. As a disabled man, that is a privilege, as I will have a chance to help my people. On the fun side, I leave for Palm Springs next month to spend a few weeks with my parents, and celebrate Christmas.

Pugilist Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Congrats to your wife Hogg! And to you too--all partners of dissertation writers are saints. For real. I did my PhD in the UK but have been back in Canada for a few years now, so defending meant a whirlwind trip back to the UK (I arrived last Thursday morning for my Friday defense and just got back yesterday), which I am still recovering from. INTENSE.

ThaliaCamille Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I made a lightbox :D Woodwork is not something I've really done before, but I thought I'd give it a go. Buying a lightbox is pretty bloody expensive, so I decided to make my own from recycled materials. The top is an old cupboard door that I got from a seconds warehouse ($18) and I used second-hand timber. The cost of buying a drill and other odds and ends probably meant that this ended up almost as expensive as just buying a lightbox, but now I have a drill AND a place to draw so win-win. Still thinking about whether I'll line the inside of the top to disperse the light more evenly. I should point out that I didn't make the desk (just assembled it from a flatpack :P ), only the frame at the top.
