American Idol

Here's the real American idol. And, Craig N, Alan S, et. al., there are things and there are devices. This is a device. I couldn't be happier.

Cold

I have discovered why our heater has to work so hard to keep the house warm.

No, the problem isn't the hole itself, as the house was cold before I made the hole. The problem is what there is no hint of in the wall behind the hole.


I also discovered how our porch is supported.

Pitch

A line from a sales pitch I sat through yesterday. Delivered with nary a hint of intended humor.

"Of course, this has a movable arm so you can lower it or higher it or whatever."

Not an Actual Image

I'm pretty sure that this image isn't meant to be surrealist, but I'm happy to take it thus:
