If you haven't had them but love eggs, you gotta try Sri Lankan egg curry - when done right, the yolks are still a little runny, though they're served whole and peeled as if hard-boiled. The dish that made me become a chef - oeuf a la russe. Not the weird recipes on the internet, but as...

I can't do it anymore (spinal damage), but you want a martial art that is built for being vaped, try one of the Indian subcontinent ones. I used to do a form called the tandav (Siva's Dance of Destruction), amazing when you're altered. Added bonus, in much of India, the hemp plant is...

FYI - I switched from cotton to hemp fiber a while ago. I did a lot of side-by-side testing, and found the theory behind hemp fiber was supported by the data - takes fewer actives out than cotton, as hemp fiber is already super-saturated in structurally similar (though non-psychoactive or...

The brief remake of this could have been worse, but the original still kicks ass.

For anyone interested, one of Ivan Kirpichev's wootz/bulat blades (unfinished - no handle/pommel and needs to be sharpened) is on ebay for $220. Excellent price, if you know someone who can complete the blade. It is listed as a blank but is actually farther done than a typical blank. That's...

And don;t forget the Twilight Zone from 1985 - possibly best line up in the history of SF tv. Harlan Ellison head writer and author of specific episodes, including one from his legendary short story 'Shatterday', with Bruce Willis actually acting beautifully. For those who think they don't...

A dozen different choices, many with precise spoon measures, for all of $10. Officially 'wax carving tools'. I bought one of these sets years ago am still using them. And they do work well for carving candles...

If you haven't seen it before, check out http://www.leafly.com . Constantly updated with new strain info, and lets you search by medical condition for which strain is best, and even the nearest dispensaries to get that strain at. No other resource like it. I always check leafly before buying...

Just like he broke Star Trek.

Forgot to mention- if you're a fan of the I.T. Crowd, you gotta try Garth Marenghi - Richard Ayoade at his absolute weirdest.

Can't believe I forgot this one...Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.

I used to be an academic religion specialist, and still have connections from then. Plus fellow Buddhists tend to give each other good deals on sacred blades. Still need to get the rest of the collection posted - haven't done any of my rapiers or other dueling blades yet. My dad was a...

I remember when people complained about the ticking in the OG, even annoyed me a bit, but I'm still getting used to the EVO not doing it. I find I miss the background noise. I confidently predict I will come to feel the same way about the EVO's "damn whistling", and if the next version...

I'm another pain patient, with a new IR thermometer. I'll get on this later today. I can tell you what the point on my EVO dial is best for my particular pain (nerve damage, bone spurs, and severe swelling) - average is 3 o'clock (though it varies by strain) and I'll check the actual temp...

Another observation...noticed the EVO vapor production is much more affected by which strain I'm using than my OG ticker. Which is actually a good thing. My ticker is apparently one of the hottest running, actually got to over 600F last night. Mkaaes it really good for BHO and shatter, but...

Fuckin' A!!! When I was a kid in NY, every Saturday WPIX had a Japanese monster flick on, right before the weekly Star Trek rerun. Looked forward to it all week. And then when I was 9, a cousin of my dad's became head of programming at WPIX and would tell me months in advance which movie...

I too agree. I have used it on my entire glass collection and it kicks ass on all of it (but i do have two new pieces en route, including my 1st recycler).

The sorcery of fluid dynamics (despite the name it applies to gases as well as liquids) and continuum mechanics - check the Bernouli principle and the Venturi effect. The bamboo in the EVO is a set of Bernouli chambers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli%27s_principle...

Every single time I use the EVO, I not only like it more and more, but it keeps getting better and better relative to the OG ticker. Especially taste-wise and consistency-wise.

If you have an IR thermometer, you can always PM stonemonkey and give him the temps your EVO has at different settings. That way you can determine if that's the issue without sending it in. I did that the other day, though for a different reason. My OG ticker seemed odd in comparison to the...
