Power!

This year (21 December to 21 December, because that's where the billing cycle rolls), I have used on average 642 watts of electricity, and 858 cubic metres of gas.

That is, if I remember my units and my GCSE physics correctly, enough electricity to smelt enough aluminium to make a seven-foot-high solid statue of myself, and enough methane to inflate a balloon larger than my house and capable of lifting that above-life-size statue.

I don't have any plans at present to divert my electricity and gas supply for 2009 entirely to that endeavour.

But where would the fun be in a foot-high aluminium statue of myself, and a balloon full of explosive gas capable of lifting to the tropopause one averagely-scrawny kitten?

Nonono, you make a leg. Then next year you make another leg. Eventually you have a statue.
