~ Maestro Or Madman? ~

...this past weekend I was sent this video, this grainy cell phone video, by my son John.

You see, he had told me last week that he had a vision of making a rotating compost barrel out of a couple of old bicycles that were laying around the house. Something about turning the bikes on end and burying them half way in the ground and then attatching the barrel between them, using the pedals to crank the thing.

Although the idea had merit I must admit it sounded a bit far-fetched, as it evidently did to others who were told of the plan.

Here we see the inventor, still sporting his pregnancy sympathy weight, with his new "green" contraption.

Congratulations, Moe!
