I met an intreaguing man in the Winter Park library today. Mr (Dr.) Radloff over the course of two years had constructed, by hand, a clock that looks like something straight out of Da Vinci's notebooks. When I met him hes was calibrating his clock for display in the library. Take a look at this fascinating contraption and equally interesting gentleman.
Just returned from a happy hour put on by Ryan Price and the guys behind Florida Creatives http://floridacreatives.com/ which hosts a show with interviews and profiles on local entrepreneurs, artists, musicians and groups trying to build a creative community in the Sunshine State. It was so cool to have so many like minded people in one place. The post is just a little opinoin piece. Sorry no songs tonight. It's late :)

In the end the fatigue of battle was assuaged by good food, strong drink and f...

Joanne was my best friend when I lived in Australia and we've managed to keep in touch since those days.? My wife and I as well as Joanne have the same birthday so I put this video together to wish her happy B-day and send something nice to her in the mail.
With fall descending I thought it only right to get in the spirit. October is my favorite month and I always remember fondly coming home from sports practice to find the windows and doors open and the fresh smell of Fall cooling the house rather then the hum of the air conditioning. Mom always took so much care to usher in the season with autumn colors and decorations. Keeping with the family tradition I’ve done the same and posted this for my mom to see her son at work. It doesn’t hold a cand...
