Welcome!

Welcome to The 36th Lock! Puzzles, humor, and news, but mainly a way for me to document things I don't want to forget. Feel free to browse. Oh... sorry ahead of time for all the typos - I tend to bang these things out on a cell phone during my lunch breaks, you understand. Enjoy!

Looking for an article you could have sworn was here before? Use the Blogger Search tool below. Actually want accurate results from your search and not just "No Results Found" reported all the time? Yeah... me too. I'm not sure what to tell you, brother.

Quote of the Variable Time Period

Quote of the Variable Time Period
Later that day, to make their escape, those boys crawled through 500 yards of foul-smelling nastiness I can't even imagine. 500 yards. That's the length of 11 baseball diamonds, one tennis court, a medium-sized male elephant, and a croquet wicket.

"Current" To-Do List

"Current" To-Do List
The idea is to add things here I will be working on in the future. Whether they actually get worked on or not is another story. Whether this list ever gets updated or not is yet another.

1) Charging Station
2) Soapbox Racer
