To Type, Shoot Straight, and Speak the Truth...

This might be the first time anyone has thought of making a ‘zine in Rolodex format! I can’t find any mentions of it being done before, so who knows? In any case, it’s done now, and you can make your own copies to put in your Rolodex and send to your Correspondents! 1) Download the […]

It all started after staring at my test “Jimbo Ziglet” 4-Panel Rolodex card and thinking about how many pages of thinner paper I could fit in that little matchbook and still have it work in a Rolodex. Prolly too small to be useful as a notebook, but you could make a ‘Zine out of it. […]

So, I got a couple new comments on my post about the 1949 “Friends” book I found at Deseret a couple years ago, which made me ponder how useful it would be if I could make a Rolodex card that could hold more information than is usual for what you can type on a standard […]

In Conclusion: You don’t want to do your job, then you either QUIT, or I stop paying you. That’s the way this works. Ever-increasing prices for ever-decreasing service is not the way to encourage people to save your dying dinosaur ass. ): Oh, and if you *do* like the USPS and think I’m being harsh, […]

Currently in the Eyeholes:

Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Prolly Not Human Bones… A selection of home-made marble printed Rolodex cards for my Rolodex. Apparently my Correspondents are catching on to the Rolodex vibe for keeping track of their own Correspondence. :D Consider myself braced! (: a Two-Ouncer! Lotta pages to this story. (: KT’s Royal 5, her Weapon […]

Oh, and don’t think for a moment that I missed the Gutenberg Vertical Screw Travelling press stamp above. Funny, I just watched a “The Day The Universe Changed” highlighting the invention of just that press :D Postcards for EVERYONE! It’s the Gift that Keeps on Giving!

Got a letter from Bill G last night, and he’s now on Episode 20! I have already answered it, and managed to trick myself into making it a 100% thermally-typed letter, pasted up onto the Episode sheet. It’s kind of fun – I may do this for all my December Letters, just to switch it […]

Below, more Thermal Paper tests, including the Phomemo’s “micro print” feature. 52 or so characters across 2 1/4″ is not bad at all. Pretty readable, too! Currently in the Eyeholes: I saw this film in an elementary school gymnasium back in the mid-70’s, and the “Me and My Arrow” song has lived rent-free in my […]

May 25, 2000 – I had my first digital camera, a 1996 Canon Powershot 600, and a hankerin’ to experiment. So I took the camera and a tripod out to the backyard of The Monastery and set up for a panorama. Carefully rotating the camera around in a 360 circle and using the self-timer to […]

Through the back of the paper you can see how the stamp pad ink bleaches the black from the thermal image, leaving red on a light background.

I copied a bunch of my favorite logos and clip art onto my phone so I can use them to instantly print stickers for… reasons.. :D

Boy howdy, thermal photo printing is cheap! How cheap? Well, here’s a breakdown of some deals on thermal paper rolls that will work in either my “Cyclops” toy camera or the Phomemo M02: A Black Friday deal on 10 rolls of 58mm self-adhesive thermal paper specifically for these cameras/printers, 10 feet of paper per roll […]
