A New Home for My Chumby Guts



     I've had a Chumby for over a year now and have found it a complete waste of my time... which is why I spend so much time poking and prodding the little bastard.  My wife too, was skeptical, until she fell into the same tap tap trap.

Well recently our friends over at the Maker SHED were offering "Chumby Guts"  and I could not resist....in fact I could not resist twice.  So what does one do with a box of loose Chumby parts you ask?  Come on, I hear you ask out loud, in fact.  Well you put it together to make sure it works of course.  And, surprisingly, it did.
     So what now?  Well, the Mrs. and I spent a few hours combing through the local antique shops to find this.  It's not an antique of course, but a steam-punked (sort of) AM-FM Cassette player that will soon have a new lease on life...as a Chumby host.


All the little Chumby bits

The future Chumby "host".  It knows not the pain and suffering it's new burrowing parasite will cause.

The future entozoic bits assembled.

At 15:57 hours on Saturday the 21st, The Chumby, "Loretta", becomes self aware.  Loretta assessed all humans as a threat, not just our enemies and launched our nukes on our enemies, know full well that the retaliation would annihilate all human life.



More after the Bump, I hope.
