they are xraying my building tonight

I have to leave by 11:30. They have a big xray on a crane, and will be examining the building for structural defects. How cool. There have GOT to be glitches in that system. (laughing) I wish I could see the pix. My dentist keeps a monitor by the chair, I can see my teeth xrays in moments.

I thought games were fun to work on. "Build an xray machine that can xray a building." "How big a building?" "Marketing says any size building." Silence. "That would take a fucking crane." "Crane. Good thought." "Do they need a handheld version?" "Only for the hard-to-get-to interior parts."

I can just imagine how that project went. "Jim, hey buddy, can I come xray your garage tonight?" "Why?" "It's for my project. For work. I just wanna try it out." "Why don't you xray your own garage?" "I can't fit the crane in my driveway." "Crane?"

"Where's the crane?" "George borrowed it. He's doing prototype work." CUT TO -- George driving a crane VERY slowly down the freeway at 2:00am. Lights. "Can I see your license & registration please?"

It's no different -- me making a game, Mark making a play, Kipley & Cornel making a puppet show. Building stuff is fun. Getting paid to build stuff is even funner.

I just think it would be a cool way to find my keys.
