The photo I posted earlier is the Magic Tree. The gentleman who decorates the tree, who goes by Will Treelighter, describes it primarily as a “senseless act of beauty.” Every year he replaces more of the mini light strings with LED lights.
A few numbers:
This is the 15th year of the Magic Tree.
This is the 5th year he has used this particular crab apple tree.
The tree is approximately 40 years old.
There are approximately 75,000 lights on the tree.
Around half of the lights are LED.
It takes around 120 hours to put the lights up.
It takes around 80 hours to take them down.I have some nice photos I took back in 2007 that I’ll try to post this weekend.
1950s Inspired Retro Philco PC.
Oh wow! That looks awesome, I sure wouldn’t mind one ;)
I know many people on here are not PC people, but you have to admit this looks cool.
A client just said to me, “thanks for taking a look at that and giving me a sanity check.” Now all I can think about is Arkham Horror.
Missouri’s Republican state senators are taking preemptive action to effectively render attempts at insurance for all useless.
