Well this is Uncle Shooter in this years costume.  Yes it's a Hazmat suit and that is a radition detector in my grubby paws.  I did a mod to it (Which I will post) that allows me to trigger it with a remote switch.  It flash a bright LED and sounds a speaker.

I decided to go to one of my customers office and walk around the outside of the building and act like I'm taking readings.  I would stop and pick up a Tranceiver and act like I was talking to someone.  Within minutes one of the employees blogged me.   The picture is a little foggy because it was taken through the office window with a cell phone.

OK, everyone needs someone to blame... so here it is fresh from the press... it's my fault.  In my defense I can say I did this after a fine bottle of tequila.

This is a video of the front of Uncle Shooter and family house for this years Halloween.  The video was taken standing out in the middle of the street.  Using a standard computer projector on a white sheet.  The audio is pumped through a PA amp (MSU Surplus $5) and a Trumpt speaker (MSU Suprlus $10).  My wife states "We probably won't get any kids this year".  Candy savings ($50.00).  More Halloween videos to come.

From: Lifehacker, While we're not much for motivational posters or trite slogans, this ten-point manifesto by Swiss artists Peter Fischli and David Weiss on how to work better is worth a mention. Artist Ryan Gander has a photocopy hung on the wall of his studio.  My dad was a simple person who thought it was more important to have some common sense (Street smarts) than book learning, I know he would like these 10 items.

Here is the original "Be My baby" video.  Always loved this song I was 12 years old and lusted after the lead singer.   Watch this video then go to this Boing-Boing link where a guy gets his afro cut and lip syncs to it, very weird but compelling.

 From: Make: Don't remember what the name of the movie was but Bruce Willis is caught by the bad guys while wandering around the back of train yard.  The bad guy says 'I want to hear you scream' and Bruce replies "Then play some rap music".  My opinion exactly however this rap is a science rap about particle acceleration.
