 Well guess what? It happened again. Another quake felt here in southern California. I was out enjoying my afternoon yesterday in Temecula, California and then it hit… The ground started swaying and it got stronger, lasting about 45 seconds. I didn’t panic, although my girlfriend did (heh heh). We were indoors and got the hell [...]  I think I may have found a sort of Shangri-La for those of us dreaming of doing anything we want with a piece of property–building what the heck we want without kissing the asses of the building department to push an idea through. Oh yes… This is a really good find I am going to [...]  There are shipping container modification companies throughout the world. They are busily cutting, grinding and welding away; churning out special order containers suited to meet the needs of their customers. Some do it better than others. There is a company called Bullman Marine (or simply Bullmans to those familiar) that performs modifications in London. I [...]  I have been an artist all my life but hadn’t been paid for my creations until around 1994. I went full-time into making art back in 1999 after I decided to post a painting on eBay for $125 and it sold within an hour. I was hooked and the rest is history. To date, I [...]  Ok, I know, I have been away… The site stagnated for a bit there, but I have to make money like other peeps and have been working on a huge website project which is finally wrapping up, so I figured I would come back to my baby and nurture it along with a fresh post [...]  I am an avid outdoorsman and extreme fisherman (whatever that means). Put a pole in my hand; toss in a stream, river, lake, sea or ocean and I am in heaven. I used to own a nice center-console fishing boat when I lived near the ocean in San Diego back in the 90′s–but got rid [...]  Why do I like OtherPower.com? Well, they know nothing about this write-up and I have never introduced myself to them; but I like them because they provide parts and insight into creating your own DIY wind turbine power generation system and anything else that makes electricity. It’s basically a one-stop shop for all your Edison-inspired [...]  Here is a home being constructed that is similar to the setup I really like. Seems to be a beautiful setting! I can just imagine what the area looks like in the fall–purples, yellows, reds and browns. The progress is going very well based on the home builder’s blog. Excerpt from her blog: …I’ll be [...]  After a long Memorial Day weekend to clear my mind of all things mundane, I am back; but what I have running though my mind can be argured as being pure crap! I love to laugh and people who know me personally know that I am a major clown. It’s really cool when you can [...]  As I mentioned in a previously post, everyone has their own idea of what they can live with or when a project is finished in their own mind–good enough. This video compilation is an example of a shipping container home that is probably the most minimalist I’ve see with a foundation (sort of), attachments and [...] |
