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

    What? I say “What”?

    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.

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

    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…

    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.

Kickstarting the kickstarter…

Posted on April 24, 2019 by Clint
If you’ve been paying attention to our occasional murmurings here and elsewhere, you’ll know that 2019 marks the tenth anniversary of Zombie Ranch, and that one of the events we intend to commemorate that is bundling Episodes/Issues 8-15 into a long-awaited Volume 2 collection. I mean, I presume it’s at least somewhat awaited since there are a handful of folk who have been bugging us about it almost since the first one went to print! But we need money for it again, so it has become time to put together a new Kickstarter and see just how many of our fanbase new and old are willing to put their wallets where their mouths are. Figuratively speaking. Please don’t swallow your wallets. That’s when I go back over our files and records from 2015 (the last time we went through this) and try to remember what we did that worked and what we did that didn’t. Also how much did we do pre-launch, how much during, and how much once we knew we were funded (and also on the hook for our “secret stash” stretch goal)? A lot can change in four years, for instance the shipping costs that every crowdfunding effort ignores or underestimates to their peril. Beyond that there’s been noticeable inflation across the board, or at least I can’t really think of any aspect of printing and such that’s gone down in price. And that sweet deal you scored back then may have been from a company or person that’s no longer around. On this, at least, I can report the good news that the same gentleman I worked with to get Volume 1 printed back then is still alive, kicking and ready to roll so long as we can get the moolah together. More costly than before? Sadly yes, but still a really good deal and one that isn’t subject to the possibility of tariff fluctuations since they’re within the U.S. So that’s sorted, at least. Now for everything else…
