Made me call my bro and tell him to hurry up and finish the rewrite of his "Earthquake Prevention Through MetaMusic©" book! This is exciting! kat |

I'm gonna hang a plumb bob from the tree outside my window and watch it make patterns in the snow as the wind gently sways the branch. I might even construct a sand pendulum too 'cause we're 100 years overdue for a major quake here in Maine. Thanks for this one Sorcha. wdyat12 |

11 Mar 01 - 12:54 PM (#415240) Subject: RE: Neat Sand Pendulum Art by Seattle Quake From: gnu I didn't spend the time to ascertain the price of one of these creative pendulums. I figure that, if I really wanted one, some sand, a small nail, a piece of string, a weight, etc, would be easily pieced together - then again, I wouldn't get the brochure, picture, distribution rights, etc., to show all my stoned friends. Too bad Avon didn't think this one up. They could sell a bunch in their next catalogue.... ding dong ! Do you hear bells ? voices ? skepticgnu |
