A great movie. Sad end, i agree. - Chris Baskind

My friend Jon said he met Joey in Atlanta at one of the used record stores as he was poring through bins. I can see that with his OCD, wanting to look at every single record in the store. - Dave Slusher

I've done a bit of molding and casting, but the real experts in the family are my Dad and brother who run a business manufacturing fish replicas. They do a LOT of the moldmaking. I can check with them for how well it might work or better alternatives. - J Wynia

If you're looking for durability, you might want to look at a product called Winterstone, which I've tinkered with in the past. It gets used for outdoor sculptures quite a bit. However, I didn't use it to cast anything, which would require a different mixture than the way I used it. - J Wynia

I did a lot of research when I was interested in making "vinyl" toys. I assume you're using Sculpey and going to bake it? That will be fine. The mold material choice is trickier. Silicone is easy to work with. But it depends on what material you're casting and how many copies you want to make. The "hollow" style PVC toys I was looking at doing were done via spincasting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... - Paul Reynolds

I would probably lean away from casting plaster of paris- there's other plasters better for casting. Then again, depending on your sculpture, it may be fine. - Paul Reynolds

Thanks for the update, Dave! I'm going to head over to Tony's site and dump some coin in this weekend...I very much dig Morning Stories. I also agree that the "macropayments" idea is the way to go. - Ken Kennedy

I have a shopping list for Michaels. Crazy. - Dave Slusher

Boy, those are some good recommendations that our government will probably ignore... - Ken Kennedy

This is how to achieve a fascist police state in three simple steps: 1) Determine there is a threat so profound that any cost is worth paying to fight it. We tried drugs, that didn't take but now terrorism is it. 2) Define every single thing you don't like as that heinous thing and pay any cost to fight it. 3) Erect a giant Stalinesque, Husseinesque statue of yourself! - Dave Slusher

Watch this later. I used to see Sonny Landreth at the Grant Street Dancehall in Lafayette LA with some regularity. I miss those days. - Dave Slusher

Sonny is so great, I really loved his shows with John Hiatt. Nice performance in Big Lebowski as well- Smokey! Great artist. - Nice Fish Films

That was Jimmie Dale Gilmore, I do believe. - Dave Slusher

Sci Fi Lab page from Ga Tech. Come on y'all, why not create an RSS feed for this and make it a podcast? I know from Ga Tech, there are literally thousands of people that could do this for you in under 20 minutes walking by your window every day. - Dave Slusher

It don't take a whole hell of a lot of investigation to look at my Google Reader and guess the broad outlines of where this is headed. - Dave Slusher

The comments are worth the price of admission. - Derek Coward

I was reading via RSS and didn't even see those. - Dave Slusher

Check this out for later. I have A Project I might want to use it for. - Dave Slusher

Snap! That is cool. - Ken Kennedy

Piggly Wiggly wifi let me down. I wrote an angry email and blog post about it, but ummm, had no internet to post them. You win for now, The Pig, but I'll laugh last. - Dave Slusher

I read this title as "Lydon jar". Imagine that - a way to capture electrical energy with gob and puke and piss and pure balls and attitude, that releases that stored energy by shocking your ass and screaming "I want to be! Anarchy! - Dave Slusher

*snort*...good one, Dave. - Ken Kennedy

Can you tell I'm working on my Sterling-ian voice? - Dave Slusher

Ummm, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE by Anthony Burgess anyone? That one novel breaks your thumb at the rule. - Dave Slusher

I think I might make this one. Imagine handing candy to little kids from the severed hand. Might get a few screams and runaways! - Dave Slusher

Hey, over here. I've got one! Look at me, me me! - Dave Slusher

I have to go with 'Hounds of Love' and 'The Whole Story' And I have all of her albums except for the last one. - Derek Coward

I do love the long suite that includes "Wake the Witch", the almost rock opera stretch. I like HOUNDS OF LOVE a lot, I also like the KICK INSIDE a lot. Really, other than LIONHEART I love them all. - Dave Slusher

Yeah, Lionheart is not good. - Derek Coward

Gyro, you sold me. - Dave Slusher

Where do you get your Gyro from? Habibi's? - Paul Reynolds

I went to the Phillie place next to Melons. I've tried a bunch of the mom and pop shops up and down Ocean and Kings Highway and most are mediocre to bad. Ali Babas at 3rd S and Ocean - bleh. The Phillie place has a salad, fries and gyro option that I like. - Dave Slusher
