That's good to know. I'd hate to think a zombie or a vampire was posting for you.

No, you can't use those tea cups! :glare:

Lets suppose that you ate and drank like a human would, then would you use those tea cups? :huh:

No, but it could be a certain Basement Cat.

During a NY Mets broadcast many, many years ago, Lindsay Nelson and Ralph Kiner were in an open air booth at the ballpark, and they were complaining about the flies and bugs.

Ralph: You know, we need one of those Mercury Fly traps here.
(SILENCE)
Lindsay: Ralph, don't you mean a Venus Fly Trap?
Ralph: Oh yeah, I knew it was one of those planets.

[Swampfox]

No way, you're posts have been too grammatical and spelled correctly.

:lol: Which means, I must not be that tired, either. I have looked at some posts I have made the last two nights after staying up to nealry 12AM watching the CWS, and I can barely understand what I was writing about. :lol:

This is turning out to be an interesting night. I haven't been in any fights, but I was actually able to stand off with a very untrusting and nervous one. I got him to trust me and get comfortable. It worked and he got to go home and got the help he needed. That is a rare instance around here it seems.

[blackfoot]

The guy kind of got hosed because of a miscommunication. Ticks me off a little. We deal with stupid people every day that just want something for free or want attention. Once in a while, you get a real one like this and they don't work with him. It is hard to remember sometimes that not every =one is a dick and trying to play the system. There has to be leniency because nothing is ever black and white. I think I got him taken care of though. I was able to get some wheel turning just before leaving, so I didn't see the end results but I am fairly confident that it he was on the right path finally.

The ironic thing is, this guy is slightly irritated with us, and I am part of the system. So I doubt he really understands what I had to go through for him. On the other hand, I had to go to some higher pay grades and essentially make them do me a favour. So, I am just irritating them, too. As Rob can attest, that is the joy of doing a job that always makes you the bad guy. :thumbup1:

[amspratt]

Please don't tell us it was part of that Twilight series.
No, it was in fact The Abyss.


You didn't make any comments about the animals and similarities to certain humans that would get you in trouble, now did you?
If I did, it certainly didn't get me in trouble.

[RichGem]

Don't you hate that? I had to set my alarm extra early today, because two nights ago I was up until three, and woke up too late to shave. Today wasn't much better, though, since I was up until two last night.

Once upon a time, I helped a faculty member fix an iTunes problem that to me was fairly obvious but to him was really vexing. Upon seeing my proposal, he said "I thought I needed a nuke, but it turns out I only needed a stiletto."

Between Ouch and Rob, I'm not sure if the nuke or the stiletto would win. Actually...I think Jay would win, because Rob might try to fight fair...:001_cool:

you ever watch stock car racing, ie NASCAR?

you know when 3 cars are fairly equal, but car in 2nd pulls up beside car in 1st (Jay and Rob), and they race, but the aerodynamics of two cars side by side in an exciting battle for the lead makes both cars slower, and their attention on each other, ignoring the suddenly much faster car in 3rd (Blake) about to blow by both of them, rendering their little battle pointless?

It would have been massive "man card" lossage if you had to go, so count widowerdom as a good thing.

Also, GMS #21 and #23 pucks are going out to the B&B test committee today or tomorrow. I shaved with #23 this morning and was seriously impressed. I'm expecting good reports from the committee. Bonus: a nice menthol tingle! :thumbup1:

You know what is funny, I have been through many tornadoes and within sight of several. Yet, I have never been able to see one. I want to so bad. It would be like a dream come true to be able to photograph one someday. Most of the ones I didn't get to see were because Mum was scared and drug me into hiding. I wanted to go with Dad looking for them. As a police officer, that was one of his responsibilities. But no, I had to hide in the neighbour's basement. :001_rolle

I told Dad to save on shipping and wait until we knew #23 was good, so sorry about that. My apologies to the mailman.

No, only #23 is mentholated (a nice spearmint/peppermint mix, but not very strong); #21 is the citrus/bay rum that I like enough to lobby for it to be a production scent. The formulations are different. #22 was a small departure in formula but underperformed #21 and #23 by enough of a margin that it's not worth sending out, in my opinion. Plus, it's unscented, so no need for the test noses to have a go at it.

BTW, I was a little disappointed in my antiquing results today. I finally found a place with some, right before they closed. It is huge! I may be willing to drive to Toledo again just to shop.

What I did get:
A cased Y-2 Super Speed
A beautiful gold Tech with only a little plating loss on the top
A Bakelite Type E Injector

I plan on getting rid of the Type E. I don't remember at the moment, but I thought someone on the list wanted one or wanted any injector. If so, let me know. I haven't decided about the Tech. I am going to see how it compares to the ones I have already. But, no one on the list asked for that.Who knows, I may purge a SS too.

Here is the real exciting part. As they started turning out the lights on us, I found the case. You know what I mean. Every Mall has that one vendor that has multiple razors. Often times, they are not in good shape or they want too much for them. However, it is still exciting to see! Well, this was the latter. For example, he had a cased Micromatic for $40! :eek: We didn't get to see them very well because the entire shelve was full of razors but had stuff on top. Plus, it was getting strangely dark in there. :001_rolle But, to one side, there was that electric razor with a Gillette New head on it that Rich post , was it yesterday. He was asking $52 for that. If I had the money, I would have bought it anyhow.

[Intrigued]

BTW, I was a little disappointed in my antiquing results today. I finally found a place with some, right before they closed. It is huge! I may be willing to drive to Toledo again just to shop.

What I did get:
A cased Y-2 Super Speed
A beautiful gold Tech with only a little plating loss on the top

The guy kind of got hosed because of a miscommunication. Ticks me off a little. We deal with stupid people every day that just want something for free or want attention. Once in a while, you get a real one like this and they don't work with him. It is hard to remember sometimes that not every =one is a dick and trying to play the system. There has to be leniency because nothing is ever black and white. I think I got him taken care of though. I was able to get some wheel turning just before leaving, so I didn't see the end results but I am fairly confident that it he was on the right path finally.

The ironic thing is, this guy is slightly irritated with us, and I am part of the system. So I doubt he really understands what I had to go through for him. On the other hand, I had to go to some higher pay grades and essentially make them do me a favour. So, I am just irritating them, too. As Rob can attest, that is the joy of doing a job that always makes you the bad guy. :thumbup1:

Indeed!


Yeah, it's know fun talking when you have know room to do it... ya no?


Whatever, man. Vampires are all the rage these days...ala Edward. Of course, everyone knows that Jacob's better.

:lol::lol::lol:

Don't you hate that? I had to set my alarm extra early today, because two nights ago I was up until three, and woke up too late to shave. Today wasn't much better, though, since I was up until two last night.

Know I don't no what you mean! :lol:


Oh, I don't think I ever congratulated Rob on his new position as top poster...
Congratulations Rob!!!
Mission accomplished.

Thank you, thank you! But unlike the last time that proclamation was made I won't keep my ground troops in Iraq for years to come. :lol:


As importantly, has anyone arranged for a 24-hour watch for Ouch and taken away any sharp objects? :blink:

Are you kidding Jay could care less.


Are you suggesting we stage some sort of intervention? Furthermore, is this watch for Ouch's protection, or Rob's?

Neither, we'll be fine. Now, Blake on the other hand. :lol:


I was thinking of Ouch's self-protection, but now that you mention it... Ouch *is* from New Jersey. :ohmy:

Indeed


it wasn't me, I only bent it a little :blushing:

:lol: Nice Avatar BTW!


I fear that Rob may be in grave danger. Quick! To the Badgermobile!

Mrs. Soapbox went to go see it last night with her friends. <sigh> I was a Twilight widower for the evening...



Erm, like his straight razors?



Once upon a time, I helped a faculty member fix an iTunes problem that to me was fairly obvious but to him was really vexing. Upon seeing my proposal, he said "I thought I needed a nuke, but it turns out I only needed a stiletto."

Between Ouch and Rob, I'm not sure if the nuke or the stiletto would win. Actually...I think Jay would win, because Rob might try to fight fair...:001_cool:

Who me fair? No way. I'm a little guy we always fight dirty. That and I'm a career cop. Our idea of fair is at least 4:1 in our favor.


you ever watch stock car racing, ie NASCAR?

you know when 3 cars are fairly equal, but car in 2nd pulls up beside car in 1st (Jay and Rob), and they race, but the aerodynamics of two cars side by side in an exciting battle for the lead makes both cars slower, and their attention on each other, ignoring the suddenly much faster car in 3rd (Blake) about to blow by both of them, rendering their little battle pointless?

Blake really is a tornado magnet. Hope he doesn't visit any trailer parks anytime soon.

nor the rest of us....unless we can somehow lure Chip back in....

I think several people would have to leave and possibly toss him the keys to the castle to get him to come back. Its too bad really.


Also, GMS #21 and #23 pucks are going out to the B&B test committee today or tomorrow. I shaved with #23 this morning and was seriously impressed. I'm expecting good reports from the committee. Bonus: a nice menthol tingle! :thumbup1:

Excellent!


and a pack of mentos.

I thought that only worked with Diet Soda?

No doubt.


No grapes or tofu? :sad:

Nope. Sweet. Grilled in the husk. With butter. And Argentine sausage. :smile: Did I mention the Argentine sausage? Good stuff. They'll win the World Cup for sure!

Looks like the GMS shave soaps are all going out today. Some of you (not Rob) will have 'em by the weekend.

Don't feel bad, Rob -- at least you get your samples before Chip does.

Hope it isn't anything serious. Hang in there, Irena.

It'll work (to varying degrees) with any carbonated beverage. You get more or less of a reaction depending on how carbonated the beverage is. The reaction is not chemical (a + b ---> c), but rather physical... the rough surface of the mentos provide a nucleation site for the carbon dioxide gas to be drawn out of solution, form bubbles, and then escape. In case you don't have any mentos, it also works with table salt and a buncha other things. :smartass:

As I understand it, that's not quite the case. Sugar seems to block the physics somewhat while fake sugar seems to act as a catalyst.

:Edit:

A 2006 episode of the television show MythBusters[9] concluded that the caffeine, potassium benzoate, aspartame, and CO2 gas contained in the Diet Coke, in combination with the gelatin and gum arabic ingredients of the Mentos, all contribute to the jet effect.[10] In addition, MythBusters theorized that the physical structure of the Mentos is the most significant cause of the eruption due to nucleation. Mythbusters reported that when flavored Mentos with a smooth waxy coating were tested in carbonated drink there was hardly a reaction

Your eyes are bugging out? Why does everyone keep looking at me like that today? All I do is pee behind one tree on the Parkway and I get tackled by 6 park rangers who commence to zapping me with their stun guns. Luckily, two of them were standing in a puddle and got a jolt of the high voltage bolts, andI made a run for it. I had to streak all the way back to the car, running behind it because my wife was driving away.

Luckily, two of them were standing in a puddle and got a jolt of the high voltage bolts, andI made a run for it. I had to streak all the way back to the car, running behind it because my wife was driving away.

ROTFL Thanks it was a looooooong day at work and I needed the laugh! :lol::lol::lol:

joke? There was a joke?

Did I? :sneaky2:



No, not really. It wasn't me. These are powers far greater than us mere mortals.

It'll work (to varying degrees) with any carbonated beverage. You get more or less of a reaction depending on how carbonated the beverage is. The reaction is not chemical (a + b ---> c), but rather physical... the rough surface of the mentos provide a nucleation site for the carbon dioxide gas to be drawn out of solution, form bubbles, and then escape. In case you don't have any mentos, it also works with table salt and a buncha other things. :smartass:

Interesting I thought the biggest catalyst was artificial sweeteners thus making it a chemical reaction?


It has something to do with fake sugar thats in it.

That's what I said.


As I understand it, that's not quite the case. Sugar seems to block the physics somewhat while fake sugar seems to act as a catalyst.

see here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleation) and here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mentos#Mentos_and_soft_drink_reaction)

Hmmmm....


Looks like I missed the "fake" part in "fake sugar" when I read and responded to your post. My bad.

But, remember, catalysts only facilitate a reaction, they do not participate in it (ie: they don't react). So, IIRC, it can still be a physical reaction with a catalyst, especially when you're dealing with a solution or aqueous environment.

In other news today......

I was in an antique store in Medows of Dan, VA, this afternoon. I saw a Belgium-made OS mug that came with never before uses OS shave soap. This was the first time I have ever seen, or smelled the elusive soap. I offered the owner $20 for it (it came with the beat up original box, and the little plastic lid), and he turned it down. He said he paid a 'premium price' for the mug just so he could include it with this giant vanity that he was selling as a shaving stand. :001_rolle
