Shanti’s Pa-jam-a Toast

SHANTI: This is what I eat when I haven’t gotten out of my pajamas all day.

PAUL: Nicely toasted. Proper jam distribution. Well done.

PRUE: Jam is just lovely—very original flavors.

SHANTI: Thank you. It’s what was left at the bottom of a bunch of nearly empty jars all mixed together.

PRUE: And I wouldn’t have thought to use half of a hot dog bun as the base, but it does work.

The Bee Movie, but hand drawn by crowdsourcing.

On December 3, 1990, world-renowned professional skateboarder Tony Hawk dropped into a ramp on a skateboard in the suburb of Rosny in Hobart.

Hawk performed “pretty much” every trick possible on a vert ramp — a ramp with a flat bottom and steep vertical section at the top — in front of a captivated audience drawn from all over the state.

His presence, on one of a handful of public skate ramps in Tasmania at the time, was unbelievable.

It was his first and only visit to Tasmania.

Ten years after its untimely death, the team that built the much-beloved feed reader reflects on what went wrong and what could have been.
