PICTURE DU JOUR
("of the Day") ARCHIVE


Displayed several times since mid-July 2009 is this:



The Toylet Bowl BBS as it appeared right around 1990.
I was the sysop of this BBS. :-)
This BBS started with the name "Phone Sys: The Douched Moose" because I had a plastic moose head that had antlers which could pivot independently over a full 360° along the Y-axis (vertically); with some configurations, it truly looked like a douched moose. :-)
Shortly thereafter, I called it "The Pink Triangle BBS", and finally (for the last 8½ or so years of it being online), "The Toylet Bowl BBS".
I ran this BBS for ten full years (well, maybe not 10 years down to the femtosecond, but you get the idea) from the mid-afternoon of 07-21-89 through the mid-afternoon of 07-21-99.





Displayed several times since mid-July 2009 is this:



Here's where my poor, defenseless little P-38 R/C "Park Flyer" Airplane landed on the flight I made on 07-15-09 (this is inside the dugout - it actually flew through the open doorway of the fenced-in dugout to end up here!!!)...note the garbage can nearby - as you can see, it was very easy to retrieve the airplane from this fence.





Displayed several times since early-July 2009 is this:



A dead, dead dragonfly {you can smell it with your eye}; seen on the side of Military Rd. S. in Federal Way WA. in early-July 2009.
I know that it was deader than a doorknob because when I picked it up to examine it after this photograph was taken, it was a rather "krispy" "kritter".





From 02-28-10 are these:




The 4-year "chip" that my sister Angie got from AA this last Friday night (02-26-10) for having 4 full years clean and sober!!!

She says that it's been a long road, but that the future looks bright. She's going to college to earn her RN degree.





From 12-24-09 is this:



The Christmas graphic that my best "long-distance" friend Don K. made for me this year (2009).





From 10-18-09 are these:



The LED Museum turns TEN today!!!
What started out as a ~15K web page with a smattering of B&W photographs from an old beat-up webcam on 10-18-99 has blossomed into the .02538576292 terabyte (~2.538 gigabyte) website it is today (10-18-09).


This was my "The Punishment Zone" entry page from when I started performing rated flashlight evaluations a short time later.





From 09-27-09 is this:



An "over-the-porch" deck in Auburn WA. USA. Photographed on 09-26-09.
Note that although a railing is present (indicative of use intended for people), no door, hatch, or other aperture is visible...how are people supposed to get out on this deck?!?
I think the person that built this must have been one egg roll short of a poo poo platter. :-/





From 09-11-09 is this:


A memorial to the 9-11 anniversary.
My mother in Alaska made this out of beads using a graphic I had made and subsequently emailed to her.
This is the practise piece; she made another for the 9-11 Memorial Quilt.

Never forget the brave firefighters & police officers who gave their lives, or the passengers on the four lost flights.







Do you manufacture or sell an LED flashlight, task light, utility light, or module of some kind? Want to see it tested by a real person, under real working conditions? Do you then want to see how your light did? If you have a sample available for this type of real-world, real-time testing, please contact me at ledmuseum@gmail.com.

Please visit this web page for contact information.

Unsolicited flashlights, LEDs, and other products appearing in the mail are welcome, and it will automatically be assumed that you sent it in order to have it tested and evaluated for this site.
Be sure to include contact info or your company website's URL so visitors here will know where to purchase your product.
