evil pod people

I was helping Arden move out of her house again as a favour to the sith, and at the end I got to help him tear apart a like 30 year old huge metal professional video camera stand. We managed to make some serious progress and I got greased up in the process. That was kind of fun. Reminds me of making a rubber shirt after school over the course of a few days back in high school. I think it was probably the damp air, poor incandescent lighting, and industrial rubber smells that triggered the memories. I shoulda been a greasemonkey... or a robotics guy... or something. I guess it isn't too late for Robotics, though I think Nikos Papanikolopolous Papanikolopoulos probably doesn't like me anymore. That would be a problem.

Decidedly not. A lifetime of having his name mis-spelled finally led to the breaking moment for poor Nikos. I hear that upon reading yoru blog he smeared himself down with butter, grabbed a dull kitchen knife, and ran off into the darkness to search for you on quiet secluded university walkways.

There's something about greasemonkeys that makes me uncontrollably horny for them. I know other girls must agree. Go get dirty, Zach!

I love Papanikolopoulos. Did you have class with him? He's been over here a few times for TechTalk and whatnot.
I have a friend with a garage, lots of tools, and an interest in buying a welder, if you have any great mechanical geek ideas ...
Thanks again for the help. It was rocking.

I forgot to mention the part where two tool saws snapped while trying to break the cable on the lift system. Pliers of various sizes made basically no dent. Big shop scissors, though? That's the ticket.

I have about 7 mechanical geek ideas. I think I need to be on a payroll somewhere first, though.
