Conucopia of updates

So. I've recently become a father three times over. The new baby is big, perfect, and sleepy. This is my excuse for my abysmal update schedule.

I'm working on a post about the McLaren F1 and the Bugatti Veyron. It should be done soon-ish.

I have recently learned turbofan compressor blades (and fan blades too) go supersonic at the tips. This is interesting, because the sound deadening techniques result in a decidedly non-Thunderscreech sound profile. I suppose my next move is to research dissipation characteristics of supersonic shock waves.

Also on the agenda is gardening. I'll make a recurring feature about my garden and her trials and tribulations. Mostly because Oregon sugar snap peas are nummy.

Finally, I should really write about school, since I devote so much time and effort to it.

I'm out of time for today. Until next time...
