There was once a snail that was sick and tired of his reputation for being so slow. He decided to get some fast wheels to make up the difference. After shopping around a while, he decided that the Datson 240Z was the car to get. So the snail goes to the nearest Datsun dealer and says he wants to buy the 240Z, but he wants it repainted to read 240-S

The dealer asks, "Why?"

The snail replies, "S’ stands for snail. I want everybody who sees me roaring past to know who's driving."

Well, the dealer doesn't want to lose the unique opportunity to sell a car to a snail, so he agrees to have the car repainted for a small fee.

The snail gets his new car and spent the rest of his days roaring happily down the highway at top speed. And whenever anyone would see him zooming by they'd say "Wow! Look at that S-car go!"

Hey, It's 'All Hallow's Eve' Eve today. Dad and I went to Reno today and I decided to spring for a Rebel 2000 camera. The salesman was very informative; very informative. He practically gave us the history of photography 3 times, spanning about an hour and a half. I still need a case.

So, the Haunted House is over now and everything is already torn down. It's amazing how little time it takes to rip dow what took so long to put up. The Haunted House was pretty fun; Our room was the 'Insane Asylum' and we had many radom things, comments, and acts to go along with that.
Hey, my mom called up the SAT people today and they said I got a 1310 on the SAT (610 English, 700 Math) I really don't know what that means...but I think it's good, so WhooHoo!

"Bavetta.com Presents" is now on the audio page. Check it out!
So, today I went to the rec. center and helped take down the boards that will eventualy become the walls of haunted house. Tommorow they will hopefully get put into position and then we will start doing the decoration, and corral all the haunts into their designated rooms. I finished the arm flapper (I guess that's the right word for it - It still needs a hand as well as pants) whose picture is below. It's kinda cool, but I don't know if it's worth the hassle of the air compressor.

It's that time of year......Halloween, and the anual haunted house. This year I've built a new mat switch and relay box that turns things on or off when someone steps on the mat. I was just cruising the internet and came accross this: I'm starting to think I might rig this up as well. I already have all the electronics and pnematics that I used last year for the spring loaded coffin, all it would take is a few boards and a hinge. Hmmm...

Check out the opening homepage. I edited a little javascript that should load one of three splash screens randomly (each time you load the page)

Well, I just came back from Reno where I took the infamous SAT at Wooster High School. It wasn't that hard, just one too many hours sitting, thinking, and filling in those stupid bubbles!
