  1. Because it is currently an internal posting.
  2. Was apparently smarter than the professor on Gilligans Island: http://gizmodo.com/5370752/the-boy-who-harnessed-the-wind-persistence-jury+rigging-and-ingenuity-against-all-odds
  3. Form of: a sports bra! http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3uCmcP0yBJA/SpWtOr_rI3I/AAAAAAAAAQ4/iLP6q6pJHrk/s400/wonder_twins1.jpg
  4. 3 tiers of hell production: http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/2828/openhb.jpg
  5. The calipers were worth more than the wheels.
  6. Ohh .... shit, I shouldn't post from work, I'm an idiot here.
  7. An active nest would be so much better for learning.
  8. Which team? I'll be the bearded guy on the army green Supra team.
  9. Can't find this info. Theres a link for "weekend passes" on the Lemons site, but it's dead. Rumor told me it was $25, but it could be wrong. Tickets seem to be at-the-gate, try calling Nelson.... Though, don't the track renters usually set the ticket price? I've alread got a seat reserved.... an OMP seat, actually.
  10. Crazy would have been doing in in my shorts in the middle of the day. Dissected the nest at lunch today, will post poison-soaked pics.
  11. At Nelson Ledges. I don't know if they charge for spectator admission, but it can't be much if they do. This is the one LeMons race that actually runs all night, come'n'see. Edit: One of our team dropped out, and we could use a replacement. You need: -$500 cash. -$50 more if you have no comp liscense. -All of your own safety equipment. -The ability to convince the team cap'n that you woulnt bend the car.
  12. On my facebook now, will post here later. Called the landlord at 4:40, cuz she's in her office till 5... accept when I need her. Left her a message to have some one come pick it up. Night fell, I said fuckit. Put on my racing suit with my caving coveralls over it. Two balaclavas, welding gloved, stable boots, duct taped all the seams, and popped on some goggles. Using what I learnd in this thread, I set a light down near the nest, approached it fromt he other direction, and scooped it up in a garbage bag. None escaped, no one was stinging the light or me. That was one pissed off humming bag of hell, I tell ya what. some got out of the nest and were pushing their way between the bag and the nest, pumping their stingers like crazy. I tied the bag off and injected it with raid. I'll bravely open the bag tonight. I was able to actually inject deep into the nest, too, so hopefully they're all dead. lol
  13. TTT The wind knocked one down out of the big tree in our front yard. I have confirmed that it is an active nest, and I am also not allergic to the stings. lol
  14. I'm betting the eye witnes is full of shit, or the story was made up to suit the photo.
  15. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/6187320/Snake-with-foot-found-in-China.html Looking at it... I wonder if there isn't a similarly colored lizard in there, with one arm jutting out an injury int he side of the snake.
  16. Fair-nuff, but still needs enriched uranium to be dangerous. On top of that, I don't the the average terrorist has the patience to turn a U235 ingot into a fine powder, it's incredibly hard. Funny thing about the Russians in the early 90s: There's much speculation about where the stockpile went, and stories of banana republics and rouge states sending buyers into former republics to buy. Punchline: They were scams. Those that actually were selling the material knew that the US, Britain, etc would give them much more money than and Omar or Saddam could come up with. On top of the, state sponsored transactions like what we had with Kazakhstan got them cash for the nuke material AND got them buddy-buddy relations with the US, which meant 10X that cash in aid over the years. If you had 235 to sell, you'd be a fool to offer it to anyone but us.
  17. This car is internet famous. It'll be for sale again when the economy upswings.
  18. They'd need to find the enriched uranium, no way a person could make it without being noticed. They'd need to construct a device. They'd get it wrong, they'd need to test, this means time, facilities, and money. They'd need to carry it. Getting any nuke smaller than a truck is a very high-tech effort, even today. The idea that a bearded guy can make a functional nuclear device in a garage is a fallacy. State-run efforts are the only thing that have a shot, and...well, see the above soviet statistics.
  19. It was outlined in the atricle. Guys in planes with launch athority, high above the carnage. I imagine we have something more current these days, like a Netowrk of computers in the Sky, a Sky Net of sorts.
  20. ... and said "Hey, that's a great idea!" http://www.wired.com/politics/security/magazine/17-10/mf_deadhand
