Alameda antique faire 10/4/09, originally uploaded by Black Heart Industries.

Sunday was a very busy day, but I still made it to the faire. The first thing I did was try to find the folks that had an aneroid barometer two months ago. I had run out of money and the ATMs where depleted. They said they weren’t going to be there the following month. So after two months wait I finally got my new pocket device. I work by the bay, so I’ll be taking this to work to calibrate it at sea level. Next we have two books, both on electronics. Electronic Circuit Design Handbook by the Editors of EEE Magazine, 1970. The other is Electronic Motor Repair by Robert Rosenberg, 1977. This book opens to reveal two books in one, illustrations in the left and text in the right. I ran though the market in about two hours to make it back to the city to see Aimee Mann at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Rode my bike like a bat out of hell and made it just in time. For a bonus, Neko Case was also playing. Two of my favourite artists. phone-text-tagging seceded in meeting up with friends. Excellent except for the god damn hippies and dogs everywhere. I’m never seen so many hippies in my life.
