September 9, 2021

Open sesame…

September 6, 2021

Not quite tall enough…. Convinced that @twobitcircus needs a Black Emperor. Orbiter 1 is a wonderfully strange pinball game that gives the ball the sense of gravitational pull.

July 31, 2021

Discoasis! Wow. They nailed it. Highly recommend. Great date night.

July 8, 2021

5 stars, would work with again. I highly recommend GameShowBot 3000 for any other circuses that might be hiring

November 20, 2020

I got a little carried away with LEGO mosaics. Here’s a Classic Games Series. Anyone know the title of the last game?!

October 23, 2020

Working on auction items for our Anti Gala. What about a LEGO mosaic of Notorious RBG?! It’d be big, 30’’x30’’. Could come with a frame and mounting gear once it was built

October 18, 2020

It’s hard to believe this picture was illustrated entirely with a Bic pen. Incredible! Captured at our 2nd annual Anti Gala benefiting STEAM learning. Bravo @samiahdagher! Thank you @skitbox!…

Disc golf is a lot of fun. And there’s a course smack in the middle of LA! Had no idea. Gavin and Dylan are amazing at it, Wyatt and I not so much.

May 31, 2020

The first time I saw a robot bartender was in 1998 under London bridge. We didn’t always take our youngest to bars, but when robots are involved all bets are off!

May 25, 2020

Impossible, you say? Nothing is impossible when you work for the circus. Thank you @mcswys

Gingerzilla. This 5’x3’ gingerbread person weighed in at 120lbs. It took a village to give it life and a village to eat it away!

December 10, 2019

Spent almost as much time in transit as on the ground in Shanghai but @standingpinetree and @nolanb222 kept it interesting. And United was nice enough to put these nerds on the Star Wars plane!

    VR has a major Achilles heel. If your eyes see movement in the headset that doesn't match what your body feels from your vestibular sense, it's a reliable way to feel nauseated. @EktoVR's built shoes with little treadmill mechanisms so as you walk IRL, you stay in the same zone!

    During WW2 Disney worked on loads of military training videos & logos for branches of the armed forces. Think of media like 7 dwarves teaching about malaria and Donald Duck encouraging Americans to pay their taxes. Flight lieutenant Roald Dahl wrote his first book, Gremlins…

  • September 24, 2022

    Gremlins were mischief-making creatures that the Royal Air Force had to deal with breaking their gear. Disney tried to turn it into a movie but only a children’s book written by Dahl and illustrated by Disney artists was ever completed.

  • September 24, 2022

    After years as an accomplished pilot, Dahl moved to the U.S. as a military attaché and pursued his career as an author releasing legendary favorites James and the Giant Peach, Charlie & Chocolate Factory, Matilda etc. I just love this story. Disney collaborated with Dali too!
