You think a Blendtec is impressive?

The folks at Top Gear invent a blender that is, by my calculation, approximately two hundred times as powerful as a "Will It Blend?" Blendtec.

Well, fuck.

The design that Lis worked out for our sukkah doesn't work.

Apparently, Lis doesn't think in angle forces and vectors. I'd been mentioning problems with the design, and Lis kept redesigning it, so I figured that she'd fixed the problems. Nope; turns out that she actually didn't see the problems in the first place.

I figured, she's an engineer, that's what it says on her business cards. Turns out, "software engineers" don't actually have to understand architectural forces. So I should have done all the designing myself, since I DO see forces and stresses.

I've now got one day to fix the design, rebuild the sukkah frame, and buy and put up the walls, roof-lattice, and schach.

Also, Lis doesn't let me have any fun.

Lis won't let me buy the five cargo containers of coconuts that I just found online. It's only a thousand bucks for five full container loads. And I had this really great idea involving a SkillSaw, drill, coconuts, and a Dremel tool. She says boring things like "you don't have a produce import license", and stuff like that.
