olympics - simpson - illusion of grandeur - BIB (benevolent illustrious boss) - supreme court - dynamite - don quixote

[11:29:23 AM] pD says: hi AE

[11:29:26 AM] pD says: is nsy around?

[11:29:34 AM] pD says: do not see her on skype

[11:29:44 AM] pD says: hope you had a good 4th

[12:21:45 PM] AE says: thank you. i think nsy is on her way in.

[12:21:55 PM] AE says: I'm done with installs today so I'm going to EAT.

[12:21:55 PM] AE says: bye.

[1:38:01 PM] pD has always aspired to be a dirty old man

[1:38:07 PM] pD says: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/graphics/2007/06/04/uolympics.jpg

[1:39:10 PM] pD says: How Lisa Simpson got ahead at the Olympics - The 2012 Olympics logo blows in more ways than one - likened the image to cartoon character, Lisa Simpson, giving London a blow job.

[1:39:20 PM] pD says: http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/art/2007/06/how_lisa_simpson_took_the_olym.html

[1:39:36 PM] pD says: that is a bout the funniest news on olympics that i have seen in years

[3:25:24 PM] pD says: just heard that there is an accident on 17 toward Santa cruz

[3:25:37 PM] pD says: and traffic is routed to highway 1

[3:26:17 PM] AE says: lovely. that should be cleared up by the time nsy heads home, though.

[3:26:51 PM] pD sending positive vibes to 17

[3:27:23 PM] AE says: careful... all those vibes could start a land slide...

[3:28:24 PM] pD says: 'tis lonely to be the world's most powerful man (sans power)

[3:29:40 PM] pD says: illusion of grandeur

[3:29:59 PM] pD says: what is the official name for this condition?

[3:30:18 PM] nsy says: megalomania?

[3:30:42 PM] pD says: i can ask BIB (benevolent illustrious boss) who is getting a degree in shrinking

[3:30:58 PM] pD says: megalomania is definitely in the card

[3:33:51 PM] pD says: but, i do wondering if there are different gradations recognized in clinical settings

[3:34:25 PM] pD says: btw, AE, the blog now has RSS feed and a search function

[3:35:12 PM] pD says: since i do not know the first thing about javascript, i was able to con my way into having one written

[3:35:37 PM] pD says: wha-hahahahah! With back-lit light

[3:38:48 PM] nsy says: the feed is now listed on google when you search for "nsa chatters"

[3:39:35 PM] nsy says: wow - nice icon!

[3:39:46 PM] pD says: which icon? the RSS?

[3:39:56 PM] pD says: it is texas sized icon

[3:40:22 PM] nsy says: yes, our fearless leader would be proud

[3:42:16 PM] pD says: dick cheney?

[3:42:30 PM] pD says: i thought he is from Dakota or some such

[3:42:57 PM] nsy says: shoulda said pseudo-leader

[3:43:11 PM] pD says: john roberts?

[3:43:21 PM] pD finding it confusing

[3:45:06 PM] pD says: not sure where the chief justice of supreme court is from

[4:12:50 PM] pD says: he was born in NY and grew up in Indiana

[4:13:00 PM] pD says: attended catholic school

[4:13:07 PM] pD says: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Roberts

[4:14:50 PM] pD says: AE, did you set off any fire crackers yesterday?

[4:14:58 PM] AE says: nope

[4:15:10 PM] pD says: i thought that was the plan?

[4:15:13 PM] AE says: you don't touch the stuff once it starts to sweat

[4:15:33 PM] pD says: ? sweat?

[4:16:23 PM] AE says: when nitroglycerin wrapped in paper becomes old it begins to leak out, or 'sweat'.

[4:18:25 PM] pD says: so, how do you dispose of them?

[4:18:45 PM] AE says: no idea. flushing them down the toilet was a really bad idea.

[4:18:58 PM] AE says: who knew the septic system was so full.

[4:19:14 PM] nsy says: hahaha eew

[4:19:36 PM] pD says: would they ignite by themselves?

[4:19:40 PM] AE says: and Kusum said brown was the wrong color for the house... so now we have to repaint too.

[4:19:45 PM] AE says: no.

[4:19:51 PM] AE says: but they're volatile.

[4:19:57 PM] AE says: jarring them can set them off.

[4:20:04 PM] AE says: didn't you ever watch any old westerns?

[4:20:12 PM] pD says: what kind of fire crackers do you have?

[4:20:20 PM] pD says: i thought they use gun powders?

[4:20:29 PM] pD says: less bang but safer

[4:20:38 PM] AE says: not for the big stuff. dynamite used nitro.

[4:22:36 PM] pD saluting Mr Nobel

[4:22:55 PM] pD says: i would hardly call dynamite fire crackers...

[4:24:22 PM] AE says: oh.

[4:24:39 PM] AE says: we used to have some blasting caps... those were pretty loud

[4:25:04 PM] AE says: now i've got just one pack of 1 1/2's

[4:25:15 PM] AE says: and some old style smoke bombs.

[4:25:18 PM] AE says: and some snakes.

[4:25:49 PM] AE says: and 2000 rounds of 9mm ammo (in case of zombies)

[4:26:26 PM] pD says: what are 1 1/2's? not up to date on my blasting stuff vernacular

[4:26:52 PM] AE says: they're 1.5 inches long. you light them and throw them away from people and pets and they go bang

[4:26:57 PM] AE says: they're pretty loud.

[4:27:17 PM] AE says: we used to make things like that with black powder grains but with a lot more kick.

[4:27:32 PM] AE says: you could also pack them loosely and they'd smoke a lot.

[4:27:58 PM] pD says: can you ignite them under water?

[4:28:17 PM] pD is thinking of the story about putting a cherry bomb into the school toilet and blow things up

[4:28:33 PM] pD says: how does that work, exactly

[4:36:51 PM] AE says: yes. if the fuse contains phosphorus or magnesium.

[4:37:03 PM] AE says: you need something that can burn without oxygen.

[4:37:23 PM] pD says: that makes sense

[4:37:34 PM] AE says: I have to go. We're moving a fort. back in a bit.

[4:37:42 PM] pD says: how long do you keep the fuse? say for every 10 seconds?

[4:37:52 PM] pD says: a fort?

[4:38:03 PM] pD is thinking knightly thoughts

[4:41:26 PM] pD says: of the "de la Mancha" type

[4:54:07 PM] pD says: maybe AE will charge the fort with his trusted Rocinante just like don quixote's famous charge against the wind mills

[4:54:14 PM] pD says: don quixote rocks!

[4:59:02 PM] pD says: http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/pic/ESC/PP865~Don-Quixote-Posters.jpg

[5:13:16 PM] nsy says: he's kind of squiggly

[5:13:37 PM] pD says: he is many things

[5:15:24 PM] nsy says: including a great restaurant and music venue in Felton http://www.donquixotesmusic.com/

[5:43:31 PM] AE says: Ok. fort relocated.

[5:44:02 PM] pD says: got a pix of the fort?

[5:44:24 PM] AE says: nope.

[5:44:28 PM] AE says: hold on...

[5:47:00 PM] AE sent file fort tofu to members of this chat

[5:47:22 PM] AE says: Fort Tofu

[5:48:26 PM] AE says: notice the apocalypse size container of bubbles.

[5:49:07 PM] pD says: don quixote would have approved the fort

[5:49:10 PM] pD says: what bubbles?

[5:50:14 PM] AE says: that's the large bucket in the back. A little water, some glycerin... and bubbles for the entire summer!

[5:50:25 PM] AE says: Ok. time to eat.

[5:50:37 PM] AE says: Corn, tofu, fresh pesto (love having a garden)

[5:50:43 PM] AE says: night all!

[5:50:52 PM] pD says: hmm... that sounds good

[5:50:56 PM] pD says: bon appetite

[5:51:00 PM] AE says: grazie!

[6:02:21 PM] nsy says: nice fort - bye!

[9:39:23 PM] AE says: tonight, fort tofu was renamed to fort comfort (get it?) and two hearty souls braved the planet vigil, to await the warming rays of mother Sol...

[9:39:35 PM] AE says: (meaning: kids slept in the fort)

[9:40:40 PM] nsy says: cool!

[9:41:14 PM] AE says: Kusum's out reading to them now.

[9:41:34 PM] nsy says: so cool! aah - the good days- i love summer :)

[9:44:23 PM] nsy says: hey - i'm still at the office - i tried to get some boxes built, but i ended up un-building - ugh - i'll send you an email and we can make sense of it tomorrow. have a great night!

[9:44:59 PM] AE says: You too. Drive safe!

[9:45:06 PM] AE says: you die hard!

[9:45:21 PM] nsy says: thanks - i think ;)

[9:45:47 PM] AE says: yes, in the true way, not in the "Bruce Willis bad franchise" way.

[9:46:16 PM] nsy says: then, much appreciated! thanks and ditto!
