Andy Waschick

This is the personal web site of Andy Waschick.

Andy at the Winery

Andy is a software developer and entrepeneur in Saint Louis, Missouri.  He pretends that one day this will lead to fame and fortune, but secretly the work really is about helping people to discover the content of their inner dialogue and express it to the world. This web site represents the small fraction of time he sets aside to actually make this goal become something practical.

To that end, what you will find here is less of the traditional weblog, and more about a tool to let Andy himself figure out the substance of his interests.  It does this by aggregating several external data sources reflecting his activity into a single flow of information. You are invited to look through the same material, if you are as interested in finding out the direction of his thinking as he is.

Omlette and red wine for supper

No, I didn't use all that butter on just the one omlette.

Avocados and pea shoots on the inside; made with organic eggs, and butter, with shredded (by me) sharp white Cheddar, Gouda, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheeses.

MSRP $93,800. For one car; four tires, one steering wheel. They make 20,000 of these every year. There are 20,000 people who will spend that kind of money on a car. Every year. Huh.

Ottawa Beset By Colema Wars

Toronto Sun | Submitted by: athenstexman

"The bylaw officer told him it was obscene and threatened a fine, he said. So Giacobbi covered it with a bristol board sign saying: "We have been censored by the city's anal bylaw." A nearby resident says it's offensive and triggers traumatic memories of his abusive childhood. Douches have bulbs at one end and delivery pipes of various lengths and widths at the other."

"Salyer lost control of his patrol car on the ramp from I-5 to northbound state Highway 599, struck the guardrail and rolled several times before ending up in a ditch... As he lay pinned in his wrecked car, at least two of the motorcycle riders pulled up to within 30 feet of his car, got off their bikes and began clapping and laughing."

Preserving Memories of a Loved One?

by timothy
An anonymous reader writes "My wife is dying of metastatic (stage 4) cancer. Statistically she has between one and two years left. I have pre-teen daughters. I'm looking for innovative ideas on how to preserve memories of their mother and my wife so that years down the road we don't forget the things we all tend to forget about a person as time passes. I have copious photos and am taking as much HD video as I can without being a jerk, so images and sounds are taken care of (and backed up securely). I'm keeping a private blog of simple daily events that help me remember the things in between the hospitalizations and treatments. In this digital age what other avenues are there for preserving memories? Non-digital suggestions would be welcome, too."

Google maps wristlet navigator

by Mike Szczys

This on-wrist navigation system uses Google Maps and something called… paper. This is a throwback to scroll-based directions from the 1920?s and 30?s that [Simon] built. He soldered a couple of brass tubes to a brass back plate, then added sides and a face crystal. Now he prints out step by step direction from the popular mapping website and winds them onto scrolls. We’re not sure that we’d take the time to do this, but hey, at least the screen resolution is fantastic and you don’t have to worry about battery life.
