They. Have. Returned.
I cannot freaking wait for this. Someone pinch me, I seriously think I have died and gone to Polymer Heaven.

Musings on Lego
I always thought I was good at Lego. But, I really have huge barriers to cross before I get really good.
I have a bad habit of building in the traditional manner, by stacking bricks one on top of another. That really doesn’t lend to good design, I have found.
Take a look at this and this. These people really know what they are doing. Real outside-the-box thinkers…
I may have to rethink my entire Nova Carrier design from scratch. Its all good. Every time I redesign it, it just gets better. We shall see.
Lego Carrier again
The Lego Carrier is coming along nicely now. I was really unhappy with the way the fighter flight pods looked, so I redesigned them. The new design makes the vessel look much more proportional side-to-side than it was, and gives it a more streamlined appearance. Will update pictures when I am a bit further along in the design, its still rough right now…
UPDATE: Pictures
Lego: Nova Carrier updated
I have been working on the Nova Carrier 3D Model quite a bit lately, and I have updated the piccies on the website to reflect that. I am learning a lot of stuff I didn’t learn years ago. Nice, high end techie outside-the-box-thinking kind of stuff while doing research into how to best implement this design. I think I am going to stick with my own instincts on most of it, borrowing and incorporating the new techniques into my own style. That way, I will be creating and implementing these techniques on my own instead of just copying someone else’s design.
Much, much more to do, so little time and computer resources to do it with.
Idle time…
I really haven’t posted anything in a long time. Nothing really new has been happening in the tech world. Lets see:
Windows Vista does not have a repair install in the standard sense. You can do a new installation without formatting the machine, but you will always have to reinstall your applications, and the old program files and user folders are dropped into a folder called windows.old. Teh suck.
The Computer Museum is pretty much done. Just need to take some more pictures and clean it up a bit.
Ideas for SPID are floating through my head, but nothing has really gotten done there.
