Cthulhu is ready! The project I began in April of 2007 is done. It started as an innovated way to use items destined for the garbage or the recycling bin. It morphed into an incredible use of Great Stuff foam; then an ill-advised amount of fiberglass. Put some rocks and mortar into the mix and voila! The Cthulhu water fountain is ready.

We're clearing out our stuff!
Stay tuned for more goodies for sale.

Here's a look at how my sculpture project has evolved over the last year. Has it been just one year? It should have been a week long project... Oh well, in amongst this sculpture project, I have:

• Tended to my family (both immediate and expanded)
• Renovated a bathroom
• Got pneumonia
• Got a promotion at work
• Relaunched a corporate website
  

The Tales of the Jumping Moose website is alive!
What is this?
This is a site devoted to shortcuts through modern day life. I have a lot of tips. I also find a lot of tips.
Why is the Jumping Moose the mascot, the symbol of our site? Years back, a friend told me this great story that he had to relate to an insurance adjuster: "He was driving down the road one day. A moose jumped in front of the path of his truck and totaled it." "The moose jumped?" the insurance adjuster asked. "Yes"
