Jersey Fair

Sight After White Flight

Came back home to these lovely views day after Thanksgiving 

Down Comes The Jet Star

Well, I was hoping to make it out to the shore to see the infamous view of the iconic Jet Star submerged, albeit partially, in the ocean. Not your everyday scene. But today they began dissambling and if Johnny 5 from Short Circuit taught me anything, I know that's not good. Kind of bummed, since we're planning on going down next week, but hey, the rebuild must go on. Bring on the Drone Star.

Jersey Wants Your Phone Number

Generating power has been a large topic of conversation the past couple weeks here in the tri-state area, a top hashtag for you young viewers. I saw this article yesterday during my daily lunch browsing and thought some of us occasionally less fortunate would be quite interested. I don't mind dropping a couple hundred on a generator once, it's the couple hundred on gas just to keep my frozen meats and milk fresh that I protest.

According to The Next Web’s Emil Protalinski, the urine-powered generator — which can turn one liter of urine into six hours of electricity — works like this.

• Urine is put into an electrolytic cell, which cracks the urea into nitrogen, water, and hydrogen.
• The hydrogen goes into a water filter for purification, which then gets pushed into the gas cylinder.
• The gas cylinder pushes hydrogen into a cylinder of liquid borax, which is used to remove the moisture from the hydrogen gas.
• This purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator.

Solves the problem of not having a place to put your pee during power outages, too. Two birds!

Mad To Sad, Doors & Windows

An interesting day to say the least. That's what we get for taking on the man. A lesson unlearnt. But the leaves are changing. They'll change us.



But Yuula has decided that she'd rather sit. It's her position of choice. Up til now all she's had is lying down. The other morning we woke up and she sitting and proud. So now we sit her. But she's terrible at it. Head is still too heavy to be balanced atop a neck that is still too weak. But it is entertaining so... we humor her.



And she had her first play date this week too, in Jersey no less. Her first playdate and interstate travel! This girl is outta control!


Jack, Ryan & Yuula.
