"This whole thing is made of rubber bands, wow."
(I need to find something better to do on the weekends)

"Yeah, I bought a couple of bags of rubber bands. It took me a couple of days to do it." As she said this, she swayed back and forth with her hands clasped behind her back. She was staring at the corner where the wall met the ceiling.

"How did you start it? Is there a ball in the middle to give it a round shape?"
(I really care about your rubber band ball)

"No, it started looking kind of smooshed so what I did was evened it out by having the rubber bands intersect at different points. And I had to do a lot of overlapping."

About Me

My photo
Even to those without Marxist sympathies, LJ was a dashing, charismatic figure: the asthmatic son of an aristocratic Argentine family whose sympathy for the world's oppressed turned him into a socialist revolutionary, the valued comrade-in-arms of Cuba's Fidel Castro and a leader of guerilla warfare in Latin America and Africa.
