My Weekend Project - Speaker Shelves

I've been craving a surround sound setup since I first heard my Dad's setup in our basement back home in NJ. Today, I'm finally able to make that happen in my own home, thanks to my new Onkyo receiver, some new Polk bookshelf speakers and center speaker, and some cheap shelves from Lowe's! I've never mounted anything to the walls before, so this was a bit of an adventure for me. My landlord will be less than pleased with me when I move out, I didn't exactly make zero mistakes... Oh well, we all have to learn somewhere, right? And now I get to learn how to fill a hole in drywall!!! ;o)

A Moment, Frozen In Time


I happened upon this amazing short film this evening. It's fantastically directed, and the special effects are out of this world!

No, You're Not On Mushrooms, My Table Is Simply Awesome

Some amazing craftsmanship went into this. I wish I was that talented at wood working!
