The first noteable modification I made to my Toyota Celica back in '07 was replacing the EUDM taillights with the late model JDM taillights.

This is what I gave my father this Christmas, a fully functioning model of a stirling engine. A stirling engine works on the pressure differences caused by temperature differences between bodies of gas/air. This model is a small-scale beta stirling engine.

For this blog I created a menu with drop-down menus. I'm not ashamed to admit the main inspiration for the menu was DannyChoo.com. I did however set out to build this menu by my own design, without the aid of JavaScript, it should be (X)HTML & CSS valid and be as compact as possible.
