@mindful1 I don't mean to kill, or maim, anyone! Do I look like Nixon? :) Man, my eyes are glazed for like the first time in a long time. When I do a preheat the opening of this goes through my head. Admins - please feel free to remove if too graphic for our more sensitive members...

@mindful1 Great post! Looks like a lovely home you are sharing with your lovely wee dragon! :) @Shit Snacks I edited the post above a few times as I got progressively more warped, so you might want to reread it. A few additions to it here. No pix yet cause I'm a bit of a slacker, but Baby...

So I checked the mailbox and Satan has arrived! First off - RBT packs like a military traffic tech, so thanks for that! Everything perfectly wrapped in bubblewrap, so lots of little prezzies inside the big prezzie. I forgot I also ordered a Nitecore D2, so I now have a spare charger to go...

A buddy of mine was a Fire Control Systems tech with the armoured corps. He has a cross-shaped scar on the top of his head from playing a drunken game of 'flip' using bayonets. You toss the bayonet in the air, get it to flip, and catch it in your hand while drinking beer with the other hand...

In theory you could use a tiny drop of non-toxic lubricant on the joint. I've seen things like 'Toob Loob' and others at the LHS. I've never tried it, but whats the worst that could happen? A lot of really silly things have started like this in the past, so please don't try this at home...

So a few weeks back I bottled some port that had been fortified with some orange brandy, and some very strong tincture. I gave a bottle to a friend who opened it this morning. I may have found my new fave way to medicate! There were a couple of green blobs stuck to the shot glass, and the...

The line handlers along the Suez - by law you have to use their handlers, and the line handlers don't really touch lines at all. They carry bags of crap they use to get cash from people. One of our guys was talked into swapping Egyptian pound notes 1:1 for UK pound notes because the line...

@His_Highness Nothing better than a good foreign port story! Egypt is a bad place to be white - the entire country exists to take advantage of non-locals ;) @CuckFumbustion Thanks for sharing that vid - it's playing on the PC now, and on the TV tonight at high volumes :)

@CuckFumbustion that sounds like a shisha bar. They were common in the middle east, and I've seen them popping up in north america in a few places. Usually some sort of flavoured tobacco, the only one of which I recall was apple. It actually tastes kinda decent, at least when you are kinda...

Once it's been christened it's called a 'pot crock'... Regarding the MB it's recommended that you decarb first. Plus there are a bunch of different ways to run it, so if you don't have success with one you can try another next time and see if it's more to your liking. I find the MB to be more...

Before I wound up on disability I took frequent car breaks for medicating. The company was going to set up the boardroom for me, but it seemed a bit overboard. Very nice of them to offer tho. PS - I worked in IT management, and the last couple of years I was so knocked out on painkillers...

Watched 'Supertramp, live in Paris 1979' on bluray this aft, after shmucking knees and back fiddling with a flat tire. Lots of meds and good music equal therapy :)

Degummed hemp fiber is great! And a very little goes a long way, as you don't need much for a filter. Maybe more for soaking with liquid concentrates?

@Detonator I was just trying to imply that MM might not be the issue at all, like your GF said...

We got 4' of snow yesterday, and another 4" overnight. It's 05:54, first 04:20 is oddly still going on, and I kinda wish we had a toboggan, although wishing is better than having :)

Bummer! I had a similar issue a few weeks after I first got mine. Hermes was pretty good with the fix and return (I'm in Canada), but @stickstones is the guy to ask if you are in North America.

Thanks - hard to believe I've been on military bases in each and every one. Thats probably why we always run off Zulu :) Happy Birthday! What a great year it was for Team Zion and RBT. A year full of successes, failures, sometimes both at the same time. Some tears, some untears (maybe...

3bie still isn't here and I'm already jonesing for the single batt unit. Mine is gonna be called The Lion, unless thats what the whole line gets called. Then it'll be 'Squirrel', as in Moose and Squirrel, but then I remembered our neighbours chocolate lab is already called Mousse (they are...

I'm just glad there *was* a pre-order, before the Canuckistan Peso took it's 'every few years' beating... At least we're heading towards legalization, so if any of y'all move up North your dollar will go a long way, although our growing season is a bit shorter. Of course it depends where you...

I wish we weren't on satellite interweb...
