wacky1980

got the camera setup finished over the weekend and tested out some settings on the full sun. i think i can still get a better product, but so far things are looking good.

need ideas for items / tasks / pics / vids to include in a scavenger hunt. you weirdos can surely come up with some good shit.

handing your phone over to sick people is a sure-fire way to get sick yourself. i'd ask if you understand how disease transmission works, but i'm pretty sure you have plenty of experience in that department.

how do people put dicks in their mouths without puking? i don't know, but they do (thank jeebs). so why worry?

don't lie. it's just gonna take you that long to dig your way outta all that pusssssaaaay.

lol, this thread right here.

solar is nice, but not exactly cost-effective at those levels. i've looked into it, but it's not something that will recover its cost anytime soon. to install a system capable of 12,000kwh annual production (my average over the last year), you'd be looking to spend at least $20k on materials + installation cost, so probably around $25k. it would take me 11 years to recover the cost, assuming the batteries held out for that long (they wouldn't) and the panels continued to output 100% efficiency over their lifetime (they don't). as you scale down, you're gonna be looking at the same amount of time to recover the cost to install whatever size solar array you're considering. until the cost to install solar reaches $.50/watt and less, it's not gonna be a viable option for a majority of people. i'm gonna start small though, and install four 100w panels on the hobby shed i plan on building next spring. should generate enough to run some lights and maybe a radio/tv and wifi repeater.

before we signed on with one of those aggregate programs, our bill was maxing out at $1100-1200 per month in the summer at the bar. at our old house, the summer cooling bills would regularly go over $200, and the heating bills in the winter would be in the $250-300 range. that was a tiny-ass, newer, 700sqft split-level. we've been in the new (100yo) house for a year now, and our cooling bills have been about the same and heating has gone down by about $50-100/mo, only now we're controlling temperature in a 2300sqft house. i guess they don't build 'em like they used to.

i don't have a basement bar right now, but i plan to fix that after i pay off the new roof going on the house next month. our brew bar is in my brother-in-law's basement.

more than i care to admit.

well, it's an actual bar. 2 commercial under-bar bottle coolers, a draft cooler, a 3-door display merchandise cooler, and a walk-in cooler. all that produce heat in order to chill beers. then the air conditioner has to remove all that heat, plus it's been 90+ degrees outside for the last month. and all the neon lights and tv's on for 16 hours a day. adds up. sometimes the bill is as low as $600 in the winter.

$225 this month at the house. but that's nothin' compared to the bar's utility bill for this month. $1030. no shits.

i'm convinced at this point that you're spewing bullshit on purpose.

probably the living room. not because it's my favorite, but only because that's where everyone else usually is. my favorite place is probably the front porch in summer / den in winter.

look up "lenz's law" or "lenz effect" or something like that, can't recall. aluminum reacts to magnetic fields.

well that's bullshit. you can "lenz" aluminum out of regular trash if you want to.

aaaaand dolph lundgren closing it out with a back to the future spoof. this fucking movie.

gilbert godfrey and al roker.

margaret cho. i snuck a peak at an official cameo list, and i've missed a fucking ton.

i kept thinking "what's her name? the cuchi cuchi lady?" i had to google her too. also, fabio as the pope. i had to poop so i missed the last few minutes, but i got back in time for that one.

stahp.

tony hawk on a rocketboard.

tara is apparently all robot, maybe except for her head and torso? also olivia newton john.

maybe. she just got pulled under by a shark, off the coast of australia. now we're at commercial. but she's apparently a fucking superhero now. she can fly and shoot bolts of lightning from her hands and caught a helicopter out of the sky already over the last hour. oh, she also spun really fast with a ski over her shoulders and created her own mini-tornado. i'm sure she's fine.

the 3yo is a fan of the series, so we're watching the new one right now. there's been a lot of cameos already. so far i have caught: chris kattan brett micheals geraldo rivera dance mom who went to jail charo (maybe?) i've probably missed a few too. anyone else catch some more?
