Paper Airplanes

Jeff — Fri, 19 May 2006 13:22:29 +0000

Charlie has gotten me hooked on paper airplanes again. As a kid, I used to make hundreds of them. My friend had a book with what must have been 50 designes, and we memorized them all. I can still remember some of them, but there are others I can’t remember at all.

Anyway, as I’ve gotten back into it, I’ve found a couple great sites online, and I thought I’d post the links here for myself and for anyone else who might be interested.

Alex’s Paper Airplanes
Joseph Palmer’s Paper Airplanes
Origami Airplanes
Sabertooth Paper Airplane <– You have to try this one!

Charlie and Mazes

Charlie loves mazes, and I think he is doing incredibly well. Here’s one he recently did (remember that he’s only 6!)

We’ve been making our mazes by using the tool at this website.

I continue to be impressed with Charlie’s ability to put these things together. This one is better than some of mine!

Here’s the link.

Help the Person and the Car

Charlie has been getting into stop motion animation, and I think this one is one of his best. NOTE: This video was made from pictures taken ENTIRELY by him. I wasn’t even watching him do it. Of course, I did the computer work to put it into a movie, but he took all the pictures himself.

When one car causes another to crash, a helpful Jedi Knight arrives to save the day by using the force.

The following in an excerpt from a children’s book, Captain Underpants. And the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants by Dave Pilkey. The evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names…

Use the third letter of your first name to determine your new first name:

a = snickle
b = doombah
c = goober
d =  cheesey
e = crusty
f = greasy
g = dumbo
h = farcus
i = dorky
j = doofus
k = funky
l = boobie
m = sleezy
n = sloopy
o  = fluffy
p = stinky
q = slimy
r = dorfus
s = snooty
t =  tootsie
u = dipsy
v = sneezy
w = liver
x = skippy
y = dinky
z = zippy

Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your new last name:

a = dippin
b = feather
c =  giggle
d = burger
e = chicken
f = barffy
g = lizard
h =  waffle
i = farkle
j = monkey
k = flippin
l = fricken
m =  bubble
n = rhino
o = potty
p = hamster
q = buckle
r =  gizzard
s = lickin
t = snickle
u = chuckle
v = pickle
w =  hubble
x = dingle
y = gorilla
z = girdle

Use the third letter of your last name to determine the second half of your new last name:

a =  butt
b = boob
c = face
d = nose
e = hump
f = breath
g =  pants
h = shorts
i = lips
j = honker
k = head
l = tush
m  = chunks
n = dunkin
o = brains
p = biscuits
q = toes
r =  doodle
s = fanny
t = sniffer
u = sprinkles
v = frack
w =  squirt
x = humperdinck
y = hiney
z = juice

Thus, for example, George W. Bush’s new name is Fluffy Chucklefanny. Now when you comment on this, be sure to include your new name!
