I don't usually do this...

"But..."

Rather, I don't usually say this, but I did happen to see something incredibly inspiring, to me anyway. So as to recount, I saw an old Chinese man with a white beard wearing a jacket and shorts holding up a sign with a Happy Face on one side and a Sad face on the other. Also wearing a billboard type thing. On one side, it said "Think" and on the other "Imagine". The "Imagine" went with the sad face, "Think" with the happy face.

Now why is this all so interesting you may ask? Because of the whole scene. How many times do you see exactly that scene, or even somewhat close to it, in a lifetime? Not very. Oh and he had a dog. Now, the first conclusion one may draw is that he is homeless. But upon closer inspection, he isn't begging. And his dog has a jacket to help against the cold. So perhaps he is, but I would not know. Secondly, he is old. That adds to the...hrmm...factor.

Perhaps it's just me. But it inspires me. And where others may see him as crazy or stupid, he is just doing what others will not. To what purpose, I don't know, but it's still all very intriguing.

New project, this time I'm going to be using sheet metal and more axles. The result is more power. Also, it might be a bit sharp and whatnot. I'll fix it all in the design process. Sheet Metal....+ Maybe wood for moulds.

Ah well, ah well.

Hoping I can finish everything. And design that awesome power generator.
