Aloha Friday, February 16, 2007

  • As a part of the big centralized audio project, I'm ripping all of my CDs to a NAS disk server. Very long process.

  • Planning ceiling storage racks for the garage.

  • The great room and dining room cornices are up! They add a lot to the rooms.

  • I still don't have the speakers in the dining room. My 7 foot stepladder is just a tad short. May have to buy that scaffolding I've been looking at.

  • Zoë's dad is getting to be a REAL geezer!

  • Installing speakers in the dining room ceiling (I hate working on those 12 footers.

  • Installing a separate 100 watt amplifier to drive the exterior speaker systems.

  • Cornices for the great room door-wall and dining room door are in work. The great room monstrosity is close to 17 ft. long and a real bear to handle. I may have to wrangle up a little son-in-law help to help me hang the sucker.

  • How would you like to be Tony Snow and know that every morning when you wake up, it's your job to go and lie to people?

  • For the holidays, Laurel made this cool table center piece/decor with a length of ribbon, a lacquered bowl and a dozen or so Granny Smith apples. Holidays are pau and the apples wound up in a most delicious and incredibly beautiful tart. How's that for conservative?

  • The holidays brought a new member to the Hale Nani family; Wanda, the Roomba robotic vacuum cleaner. We've sent her on a couple of test runs in the office, master bath and media room and despite a few limitations, I'd say she's doing a pretty good job. When pau sucking, she even drives back to her docking port for a battery recharge.
