How would we explain religion to other life in the universe

So the rover has Identify clay on Mars meaning that once there may have been life.  I have to wonder if Mars did once have life would they been so worried about who the next Pope would be?   Also how would that fit in with the bible teaching?  Earth is meant to be the centre of the universe.  If we were to find on another planet with life how would that one be explained?  After all it isn't mentioned in the bible, life on other planets.  How could they know.  They made the stories up with the knowledge of the day and the idea of other planets with life would have been silly ideas.  As silly as religion is nowadays.

It time on pay day loans and about time too

So the new loan sharks of the modern world have been giving 12 week to clean up their industry.  Is it me or do we need a new approach to banking all together?  Why when the recession of 2008 hit do we still continue with a system that has done little but put us in more debt.  

Who would willing ask to be a slave?  So why do we keep with the old system and not look to create better local bank run by local people for local people.  Would drive down debt for people create small local business who bring work to their community.

Don't we all feel better that we saved the banks


How is that we bailed the banks out for them just to screw us over?  Why do we keep creating money only for them to add it to their own profits sheet?  Lucky shareholders.  Isn't it time we start looking at setting up more small banks run by local people for local people?


Oh yes and one more think.  F*!ting bankers.

Why is God always sleeping


Only God can get away with sleeping on the job.  Why is that?  And why would an all powerful need to sleep anyway?

Would you get away with sleeping at your job?

Smallest soldering Joint I've ever done

Here is three Brass tubing tubes solder together, the smallest soldering joint I've ever done.  It looks a little messy but rest assured it is strong enough to do the job.



Sorry about the images below could find out how to rotate this image.  If anyone know how please let me know 


The bottom two images are with the aluminum wire that have been glue in with thread locker.  Then I added some cotton balls to close up the joints.  Which will hopefully stop the aluminum wire from coming loose by moving in the brass tubing.  The Cotton ball tightly compact everything together.

New armature for buck

So this is the new silicone puppet that I've been working for Jo creating her a armature using brass tubing that I've welded to Steel plates.  I then use threadlocker glue to stick the aluminum wire to some more brass tubing.  The feet are made in two parts with brass tubing welded to steel plates and then a bolt added to the end by being welded on

Here is a link to the buck website http://joey-goodchild.wix.com/buckthemagician with making of videos to follow soon.


The head is also made out of silicone with a wooden block that has aluminum wire connected to animate the mouth and eye brows.  the eyes are buttons that will be painted on by Jo 


I wrapped electric tape round the armature so that the silicone wont react with the threadlocker


I then bulk out the body with sponge and wrap it in foam bandage before putting it into the mould



This image is both puppet together, on the left is the puppet that Jo has made the body to with my silicone head.  On the right is the naked silicone body I made for Jo with the silicone head.  All the cloths were made by Jo for both puppets


Working with the misses on her latest project

Starting to put together all the work I've be doing with Joanne Goodchild on her latest project for Uni ( http://joannegoodchild.blogspot.co.uk/ and http://joey-goodchild.wix.com/animations ).  I've been making some of the props for her set.

The top image is just a early test of how the puppet will look when with a put against a mock up set.


I made the telescope on the top shelf that seen better day. 


I made the lava lamp which was then painted by jo




I also made the laptop and microscope with were then painted again by Jo
