Oh the irony. The Museum of Failure has closed.
Blast, it showed as "Closed" and what time it opens along with normal hours on Google just a few days ago! Now it reads "Permanently Closed". Oh well, at least I've still got the Mustard Museum.

Toilets are pretty fascinating from an engineering standpoint. What we all think of as fairly simple and straight forward design required a lot of thought to solve some very serious problems. Moving forward they are just getting more and more complicated.

Appreciate the advice on Malmö. It was on my list due to proximity to Copenhagen and some of the places I'd applied. Lived in a few industrial towns and they are pretty much all the same with a varying degree of depressing directly related to how much industry remains. Lund might be fun and still close to Denmark!

Medieval week looks kind of like a Renaissance Faire but another year perhaps. I'll be over there from June 22nd - July 6th, need to check the exact dates again.

Forests? Great! The hipsters? I can deal with them so long as I'm allowed to make snarky comments. I live in city much like Portland and we've got our fair share of them, along with the college students, protesters, vegans, Freegans, trust fund children, and millennials.

OT, what type of job are you looking for? (Yes we're hiring)
Ideally? A BA or Tech PM role but won't shy away from getting my hands dirty with development either. I'll follow up in an email.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
