Picture(s) A Day – 1 January 2010

Ah, yes, the first day of the new year went pretty well all things considered.  I worked (YEE HAW!!!) and got quite a bit of extra $$$ out of the deal which was pretty nice.  I’ve been really tired lately and not sleeping too well for loads of reasons, so I took a nap after [...]

Signing A Petition For 100% Inflation – My Head Truly May Explode

Grab the duct tape and bailing wire for this one.  Wrap them tight around your head.  You’ll need them

Um, yeah.  I’m not a big fan of the whole Illuminati thing, but this goes far beyond that.  It’s one of those things that I really can’t wrap my head around.  I’m sorry, but I [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 5 December 2009 – Flashlights

Once again, I’m in cash conservation mode.  Christmas shopping and my family’s visit have absorbed about all I can afford to expend aside from maybe buying the next Harry Potter book.  Therefore, there will be a minimum of travel to maximize the length of time the gas in my tank will last which will have [...]

Flankers For Sale in the USA!!!

So I got this email today from occasional commenter Jason C about a couple of aircraft which are being offered for sale here in the U.S.  I’d heard about them, but hadn’t seen the new pics and video.
What you see before you is the mighty Sukhoi SU-27 Flanker   This jet is a fire [...]

Expensive, but Still Very Cool

If I only had a spare $995, this would be on its way here right now 8)  From Historic Space:
It was our desire to produce a collectible presentation celebrating the two most significant accomplishments of flight: the first powered flight by the Wright Brothers, and Apollo 11, the first flight to land a man on [...]

Picture A Day – 29 September 2009

Nope, I sure didn’t post much today.  Been a bit tired.  And NCIS was on
But mostly just tired.  There’s issues going on in the life of someone very close to me that I don’t necessarily want to air out over the entire gosh darned Internet, but which have me not sleeping quite so [...]

Picture A Day – 8 September 2009

So, I’m starting to get myself prepared for possible nightmare scenarios which I hope never hope come to pass.  Hey, don’t laugh – an extended power outage is nothing to sneeze at and what if the water stops flowing?  Yeah, not fun.
I ended up at Wal Mart yesterday and picked up some cup of noodles, [...]

You Learn Something New Every Day – Radioactive Lantern Mantles???

So I decided the other day to go ahead and get just a little prepared.  I went to Wal Mart to pick up a single burner propane stove and some storable food and figured while I was buying the stove, it might just be a halfway decent idea to get a single mantle propane lantern [...]

(Archive) Picture(s) A Day – 2 September 2009

Today was busy at work and it didn’t let up after I left, either.
Massive call volumes, cantankerous customers on the phones, and broken equipment was just the tip of the iceberg.  I had to go to different banks during lunch and after work.  I also had to pay the rent and go buy Ziva dinner.  [...]

Maybe I Should Cut Costs On Soda…

So I was thinking again…  No, no need to run to the fallout shelter – it’s not one of my “apocalyptic” thoughts
Seriously, I’ve got some money coming my way and I was thinking that I might have a way to use some of that cash to save money in the long run.  One [...]
