icanhasmoarfishplox?


today i woke up at 5:00 AM to go fishing off hawaii kai about 28 miles off shore for some mahi mahi. we ended up catching 3 mahi mahi and 2 ono. one of the mahi mahis i fought and won... obviously. cranking in about 100 feet of line with drag and a dead weight fighting is very hard. then i realized torque was being applied everytime i turned the spool of the reel. the stupid handle was so short that it ended up being way easier to hand reel the fish in.

mY dOg has FLeas


this weekend i was playing my ukulele when i finally realized i should do a journal entry. so in an ukulele there is some good physics principles. the most obvious is vibrations from the strings as u pluck or strum the chords. the body of the ukulele is hollow which allows the air passing through it echo and create forced vibrations in the body which acts as a natural amplifier. the body of the ukulele has a natural frequency that it wants to vibrate at and if that exact frequency were reachable and sustained the body would break due to excessive resonance.
