Dave....? Are you awake.....? Dave... ? ( A little bit of fun to pass a rainy day..)
I was awoken from my slumber this morning by a very grumpy Hal 9000 ....
I looked into his bleary red eye, ( I think he had been on the silicon cocktails last night.......  ) and listened carefully to his story, as he explained to me, that he was feeling a little disappointed in how long it was taking to build the Discovery...... (He is very excited about his upcoming new home.... it makes him sing all the time.....: "Daisy... Daisy....."  )He explained that he was feeling like a vagabond, with no home......... So, I hurriedly offered a temporary compromise: A temporary home, that he can use to get around a bit more, get out of the house and see a bit more of the world........I get a bit worried when HAL is in a bad mood....(We all know what HAL can get like when he is a little upset......  )So, I went down stairs, and thinking to myself that this little distraction would also help to eliminate the boredom of building 60 module for the spine of the Discovery, I started on the build process of HAL's new 'home,' while he watched me critically over my shoulder...... So, I cut out and prepared all the components.... IMG-20120603-00374.jpg Started on the legs.... I put a strip of masking tape to tighten up the swivel joints a bit more. This should help HAL from falling over when he is walking home from the pub.... IMG-20120603-00406.jpg Half way there ....... On the last leg.... So to speak..... (You can also see part of the building site from the Discovery, in the background...) IMG-20120603-00401.jpg I finished it off and presented it to HAL, who excitedly moved in straight away. I offered to take some pictures to commemorate the event.... He was a little shy at first... IMG-20120603-00422.jpg But, when I told him I will be doing some more construction on the Discovery tonight; He was WELL happy!! IMG-20120603-00428.jpg
