UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

  1. “Oh, *that* kind of grave robbing? Lead on, Chuck!” 😈

  2. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    What? I say “What”?

  3. Heh, this is going to be fun. Tradition says you need to drink at least one bottle of MD 20/20 before going to the graveyard.

  4. At first I was thinking of something like a potato battery … nope!

  5. If you take a dead “D” cell battery, take out the carbon rod from the center, cut a strip of galvanized sheet metal about an inch (2.7 centimeters), take a small jar for canning, suspend the rod in the center and the strip on the side, pour in drain cleaner, you’ll get 1.2 to 1.4 volts DC. 10 of those connected to an inverter will give you 120 VAC at 0.5 amps. Do NOT keep them in the same area you live in however, the fumes will burn your lungs. Just something I learned in chem class in high school. You’d have to top-up the jars every few days, however. Any type of acid will work, even salt water. I think the teacher was a survivalist…

  6. Scheffler, Hovland and Conners Share the Lead at P.G.A. Championship
    Jordan Spieth, who needs a victory at Oak Hill to complete the career Grand Slam, and Justin Thomas, who won last year’s tournament, just made the cut at five over.

Big things hitting each other…

I should technically be talking about this next week, but I guess I’m hype. Spring seems to be the time Dawn and I cast our reservations aside and actually feel like spending money to see big things hitting each other on the big screen. Okay, not all our reservations. We didn’t spend any money on the Transformers movies after the first (until last year’s Bumblebee which we very much liked). We want to see big things hitting each other movies that feel like they’re made by fans of big things hitting each other, if that makes sense. I suppose much like we want to watch superhero movies made by people who don’t give us the feeling they think superheroes and comic books are stupid. Anyhow, “big things hitting each other” is probably just a clumsy way of saying “kaiju battle.” Two years ago our Spring kaiju battle movie was Kong: Skull Island. Last year it was Pacific Rim: Uprising. This year, it’s the Big G himself returning with all his friends, and early reports are there’s a lot more crunchy, fully shown kaiju battle than his 2014 outing. So yeah, we have our tickets to Godzilla: King of the Monsters this weekend, and in the meantime I’ve been obsessively listening to the OST on repeat in a way I haven’t since Fury Road. The composer actually brought the OG themes for Godzilla and Mothra into the modern age, updating them while also preserving them, and that’s something I hope to see play out in the film at large. There will hopefully be much in the way of large. And hitting. Also atomic fire. No but seriously, if you’re any kind of classic kaiju fan, this’ll really give you flashbacks, particularly if you play it back at x1.25:
