Propane Propelled Gyroscopes – The Ride of the Future
Looking to add a little thrill to your chrome future?
My next project is an amusement device, based on those from the
past also wishing to push the envelope (be sure to snoop around the referenced by links for some great stuff):
http://www.google.com/patents?vid=USPAT846925,
http://www.google.com/patents/about?id=TChzAAAAEBAJ&dq=3141669,
http://www.google.com/patents/about?id=Dcc0AAAAEBAJ, with a fiery
twist.
It will be a gyroscope ride – 3 gimbals, with a rider inside -
however, each gimbal will have a propane cannon attached, top and
bottom, facing opposite directions. The rider, mounted inside the
inner most gimbal, will have throttle controls in each hand, bars with
big red buttons, giving control over direction and thrust, to propel
the gimbal rings and him or herself for a hell of a ride. The desired
effect is not only to allow the rider to experience a gyroscopic
effect, but also to send the fiery cannons spinning overhead, in the
periphery, and in front and behind. The ride will be hot.
Back Door fixed!!
a resounding thank you to Gaylen, Boris, and Mary Beth for fixing the backdoor. It has been talked about for so long, and it is a radical difference from what it was. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

Madagascar Presents: Halloween Parade!
We decided to do a Halloween parade in the West Village this year. Just kind of an off the cuff thing. Nobody did much work on it or anything and we’re not sure anyone will show up, but we’re gonna head down there in the evening and “parade” around a bit. Prolly there will be some people with their pants off and other ridiculous things going on. It’s the Village after all.
