Speaking of projectile weapons... Not sure of how something like this would be useful, but still pretty cool. Want.

Yesterday night I had to re-engage my SCRABBLE skillz against some new friends who mentioned scrabble before I did.
Some notable words that got the win for me:
HOAX (TWS)
LIFER (TWS) 52 pts
... and my favorite from last night...
FEEB (TWS) 42 pts
I didn't get any Ss or Blanks or the Q, but those Triple Word Scores really put me ahead.
4 person game and I got 215 points. Not bad.
I'm pretty rusty on my two and three letter words, gotta start studying again.

Agreed. I sure as hell don't want to get shot with it. With that said, all my home defense solutions are gunpowder powered.L_N_Love wrote:Ha ha....probably Tim.

This evening's menu... polyethylene glycol, sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride; who can guess what happens tomorrow?
That was pretty amazing, Sherman; I have a tough time making one kite do what I want, but three?1st 5er wrote:"Romancing the Wind"
Today I was at the stoplight where I saw a bank robber get nabbed a few years back. It was surreal to say the least.
Rather mundane day when I looked up and saw this dude wearing a long overcoat and looking like Prince run out of the bank. He darted back and forth and then turned and ran straight into the arms of a uniformed officer who came running down the walkway. A few shots rang out as they struggled and I remember not feeling threatened because I could see all hands were pointed downward. That cop had spun "Prince" around and had him standing and cuffed before my stoplight had changed. I looked around and no one had really noticed. Traffic just moved.

Maybe there will be a '80s themed party or something.

There are some cool dentists. Mine is. His DD is an E39 Dinan M5. It used to be a E36 M3, but now that's the track car, currently with a blown HG I might add. Project car is trying to put a 57 Bug body on a Boxter. Last visit his assistant had to chide him to work as we were BS'ing about cars.
But he's still a dentist and I'm still miserable in the chair.
