How are you tonight, StevesCVO?! Have a good weekend, I hope =] It's pretty slow here tonight and I am already searching for something to do
Tommy came back from the GFs yesterday carrying lots of meat from the sales that were on. One item we haven't had on sale in awhile that he got were pork chops. I'll be frying some up with mashed potatoes and gravy this week if all goes well. I might even break out the fry daddy and get some fired chicken done as well :/ Maybe I should do this over the weekend, come to think of it LOL

You must work in the AM? Better get yourself some melatonin! Safe sleeping aid... old folks don't produce melatonin any longer so it just makes us sleepy. I have had some tell me that they don't like it. It never gave me trouble though.
I have found something I must prepare for! I need to get into SHAPE!!!! Check this out: 2.8 Hours Later and 2.8 Hours Later: Asylum!!

Melatonin doesn't work for me. I just can't lay down and shut my brain off. Never have been able to. 5 hrs sleep and I'll be good to go lol.
That does look like fun Lisa. But when all you can do is run and not fight back, not so much. Be more fun to be a hunter or a zombie LOL.

True, you can't fight back, it is a game where your trying to outwit others by hiding, evading capture,and making it to a predetermined destination alone or with others =] It's like Dinner Theater for HORROR FREAKS! We have a weekend Dinner Theater here at our local winery... You go in, have dinner, drink wine, get assigned a part to play over the weekend in the model of the game or movie Clue... Your supposed to guess 'Whodunit', but this zombie themed game... Whoooooooo I love it!
'Your aim: to find the small pockets of survivors hiding out in some amazing locations, while all the time running from the hoards of bloodthirsty zombies roaming the streets between you and your goal. Each location will get you one step closer to resistance HQ - the last safe place in the city. Can you and your friends make it through this nightmarish world and find the Zombie disco?'
'Armed with just a map and their sneaking and running abilities, participants have to cover a lot of ground in order to reach the safe zone and complete the challenge. One can easily get lost in the urban jungle, so organizers advise participants to bring a mobile phone, so they can call for help or get directions. Also, since fighting back against the zombies and bounty hunters is not permitted, running is their only real weapon, so proper shoes and comfortable clothes are also a must if you want to survive. You can go lone-wolf or team-up with other survivors, but any way you play, escaping the infection threat won’t be easy.'
'For example, Asylum, the newly released version of the urban running game features a rich story of the events which led to the catastrophic pandemic. UK cities are locked-down by the Government to protect their inhabitants from the zombie-infected badlands surrounding them, but the measure fails, and when authorities decide to abandon survivors, the city becomes a hell-hole overrun by the infected, vigilantes and bounty-hunters. Players are thrown in this chaotic world of disease, quarantine and murder, and confronted with deeply emotional choices to save themselves and their loved-ones.'

1. 6/17 - Goodmorningnight folks.
After rummaging though some old plumbing parts today, I found out that 1/2" ID copper pipe is actually large enough to fit AA or 14500 batteries. This opens a new world to my potential mod making, even smaller and stealthy. I have no idea how to fit a switch in there, so it will have to be fully mechanical and spring activated. Learning is fun!

I'll have to look at work Schnarf but I think I have some 1/2" ID stainless left over from a project we did. May also have some brass tubing, just have to see what sizes are left. If I can find it I'll send you some to play with.

2. 6/17 - Making mods for myself alone makes me feel a bit like a vaping doomsday prepper. It's not nearly as weird as collecting guns and dried/canned food, but my sub-conscience keeps pointing out the comparisons. It's time to tell that part of my brain to shut up, stop making things, or start selling. I'm going to work on option 1.
From a South Park episode "Underpants Gnomes"-
Step one: collect underpants.
Step two: ?
Step three: Profit!

Now I really sound like a vapocalypse prepper.
Disgusting. Meh. 
At my present mg/ml per day usage, I have over 2 years of nic concentrate in the freezer, 3 or more years if I continue cutting down. I have multiple RBA's and RDA's, and enough wick and wire for years even though those will always be available, just like batteries. I have enough flavoring concentrates for a more than a year including bad mixes, and those will also stay legal no matter what. I can build a mech mod, if everything I have breaks. I suppose I could use more cartos, but I could make my own if necessary.#4
Just make sure you have enough juice when the SHTF.

BUMP for buds -
Well, TBH it is always good to 'attempt' some form of self reliance. Just because we have never HAD to be self reliant in any great way doesn't mean that we should not be prepared =] If I could get away with the stench, I'd do like so many others do and keep a couple of hens for the eggs... problem is, I am not so interested in eating eggs anymore :/ I have gotten sick from the last 3 cartons I have bought, so I really think 'they' are medicating the chickens and selling the eggs... I used to breed chickens and know about this, but I have always used or stopped using the medication in regard to processing the fryers for meat and not the eggs :/ Same concept, though - I am sure of that.
Anyway, it is good to KNOW what we can do if we needed to =]
Hahahaha! I didn't know what you were talking about until I back tracked! Your one message wasn't read because I saw Marilyn!
Copper Bomber certainly sounds pretty snazzy If Schnarph keeps building these he will certainly have to name them =] If it goes farther than a hobby, then I want advanced notice of a waiting list because I intend to be on it for an 'official version' and pay for one =] It's not every day you see the start of something magnificent! It is actually vaping very well still... I must have done 15-20 battery swaps on the 18350 size. I am getting a patina now and I want to see how far it goes, if it rubs off, and the like. I brought the kicked Bolt to work with me tonight because I was a bit concerned about the copper patina rubbing off on my bra LOL And after a bit of vaping on the kick Bolt I think the copper mech is a bit more powerful. I am still a bit shocked at how well it vapes :/ Someone will ultimately have to take some readings with some gadget, but I am impressed with it. I think another week on the 18350 sized batteries and then I'll test out the 18450 and then the 18650 versions.
