Title: What Are You Up To?
Post by: Aakosir on June 02, 2013, 10:48:03 am
Just a simple chat thread to get some activity going.

What are you doing today?

I'm currently waiting until 11:40 so I can leave for mediation and hopefully get my divorce done and over with. Then it's off to work for me!

Absolutely nothing, I have no life.

In my case, this is most likely true.

Wow, I knew I wasn't alone.

Bored of wanting a job, needing a job, and not getting a job xO

Been trying to find a job somewhere... x.x; seems like forever now; STILL no luck.
I'm contemplating on if I should try and sell my Shiny Umbreon partial on Etsy or not. I might just put it up there for the heck of it O_o but, I dunno how much I should ask really.

Applying for jobs while waiting for my pasta to cook. Also looking after my pet lizard. She blends into our new sofa, and has decided she wants to climbs all over it and  then sleep between the cushions. So I need to keep hooking her out.

Tonight I'm volunteering for this thing in Boston, "Bikes not Bombs," that recycles and refurbishes old bikes and parts. My other goals today are to start learning to write longhand (so I can write anywhere and anytime), and to finish reading the book "The Big Truck that Went By."

EDIT: Well, the volunteer thing was okay but I didn't accomplish either of my other goals. Especially annoying because I did have the time, but procrastinated with other stuff. Bleh. Tomorrow, then.

The paper cut was from when my friend tried to attach a balloon to a paper airplane
The dislocated shoulder was from when I sneezed (how, I don't really know)
And the rest was from when I fell down three flights of stairs.

How is he Spoonman?  By doing something utterly insane that only someone as brash as Spoonman would ever try, and that could only be accomplished if you had Spoonman's ridiculous luck and skill.

Anyhow, great movie, with a couple good MST3K scenes, and more than a few Spoonman moments

it is so much fun!

basically you put it into the java script console of chrome or firefox, via copy-paste ( view-developer-java console) or sometimes you can just copy-paste it in to the URL bar.

and it lets you play katamari on whatever page you are on ex:

trying to deal with twitter.

i havent used hardly it at all, and none at all for months. it wants me to update my password so it sent an email...to my email which has been broken for months. i tried multiple attempts and methods and wen i asked support it was an automated message saying the exact same thing WITH a link to the exact page giving me issues. so i replied and hope they actually read it and send the email to my new one.

AND ive used all of my allocated computer time trying to solve this.  :goldpissed:

if at all curious im trying to use twitter is because a fur i found in school told me his twitter ( he forgot his FA and so that was the first thing he could get out before he had to leave). and now to take a note of his username so i dont forget it.

barely keeping awake after a robotics competitionwhich i woke up at 5:30 for and got home from 7:30 pm. we got into the finals though. which requires getting thru 5 qualifying  matches. getting selected for an alliance. getting thru 8th finals then quarter finals then semi finals then you get to finals. we lost but there was a tire breaker. and to think that our main function on the robot never worked, once during the entire comp. but our school had  teams on either side of the finals and at least 4 on each semi final so our school was guaranteed to win either way.

trying to decided if we made a great decision or a horrible one in robotics. we ripped our functioning arm off to build an all new one, presumably untested, with only a few hours to work before ANOTHER competition. and this time its at our school so we have to spend a day setting it up. but if all goes well it will be much lighter and faster then the old one.

Got home from work an hour late because my ride was stuck on a long call. Tried to pay my electric bill but the pay kiosk was broken. Ugh...got the money order for my car payment at least. My car is halfway paid for, whoop whoop! I'm feeling mentally drained from work, as if my customers stole some of my IQ bit by bit with each call. Bleh. Now I'm just kinda hanging out at home, wondering what to make for dinner.

An answer I prepared earlier to explain why there is so few people at my school
(All population counts are 4 years old)

Geography lesson! I live in a Country called Australia. (Lol. I had to go there didn't I). Australia's towns are distant from each other. People populate mainly the coastal and slightly inland areas. I live in an inland on the East part of Australia. I live in a developing City which is actually 2 cities together(They are separated by a river). Together both these cities have a population of 106,052. I live in Albury which has a population of 45,627. In Albury I live in a Suburb called Thurgoona which has a population of 6,160. In that suburb I attend a small private Christian school. (Now I've put enough info on the internet to be stalked. Meh)
(https://sites.google.com/site/thealmightyzoo/Areamap.png)

Somehow Thurgoona is the source of the Highest light pollution out of Albury/wodonga. I don't know how they achieved that.
Short answer: East part of Australia and down a bit.

Hopefully I'll have the neck finished, all the drilling and body routed out by tomorrow night. Then all next week I can put it together. String it up and check the wiring. Then take it all apart and paint a finish on it. Even if all I can do is get one coat of sealant on it dry by Saturday morning.

At work, stressing over the fact that my paycheck is smaller than it usually is because I had to call out for one day because of the snow and that day was unpaid. I gotta somehow catch up on bills and find a way to eat for the next two weeks.

This one here (http://www.furbuy.com/auctions/1053241.html)! Been drooling over it since I first saw it a few years back. It's a little big for me, but I figure I can alter it with no real issues, or see if the original maker would be willing to fix it up a bit for me (Beastcub, I think).

let's just say that i have some violent thoughts in my head, and my hands constantly turn into fists when i think about it...

well the reason why is that some one ran over my... not on accident she was very close to the side walk and she didn't get hit she was ran over so that mean that the car swerved... people like that make me sick... one thing that makes me feel slightly better is that she is not on earth any more (what ever happens to her when she died) and that she took it to the head meaning a mostly painless and quick death.

RIP Raisin...

Watching Farscape, Season 1, Episode 3. :)


John Crighton recording a message to his father: "Hi, Dad. You'll never guess where I am now. I'm somewhere on the other side of the galaxy, wherever "somewhere" is. I'm not sure, but I must've passed through some sort of wormhole when I was doing that orbital experiment.
Anyway, I'm on this living bio-mechanical ship with a bunch of escaped prisoners. They call themselves "furries", Dad. They're animals that appear to be humanoid and can speak. One looks like a tiger and is a warrior. Another is a priestess cat, and another is a short pig type creature. But, there is hope. Another "member" of the crew is a Peacekeeper, and she looks just like a human! Apparently, she's been in contact with furries too much and is "irreversibly contaminated" by them and can never go back home. Therefor, she's now an outcast just like the rest of the crew on this ship. Apparently, these Peacekeepers she speaks of are a militaristic bunch that are trying to bring "order" to furry star systems everywhere. Actually, oppressed might be a better word to describe how these furries are being treated by the Peacekeepers. Oh, and I almost forgot, the pilot of the ship, who also goes by the name Pilot, kinda looks like a large dragon of sorts.
I'm not sure what I'll do or where all of us will be going, Dad, but one things for sure, I'll do my best to make it back to Earth and see you again. These furries are also trying to get back home as well. A place they call Furtopia. I wish them good luck and I hope they make it.
Well, that's it for now, Dad. This is John Crighton signing off.

Just made a stir fry out of carrots, onion, corn, red kidney beans, glass noodles, various Spices (vegetable stock, garam masala, cumin, chili powder), tofu, and celery and it tastes amazing :) (I just made it up on the spot. I also added some soy sauce to make it taste even better)

I was marinating the tofu since morning though (With the same spices as well as some turmeric to make it go yellow). So I planned the stir fry I just didn't know what I was going to sue to make it at the time.

Anyway.. my dad is annoyed at me because I left the cooking to late which means I ate late which then leads to me staying up later because I can't go to bed directly after I've eaten. I have to wait at least 2 hours otherwise I get insomnia (I don't actually feel tired until late at night anyway) :P Oh well. Guess I'll have to stay up and watch some Sword Art Online :D

just played some KSP, and with the new update it now runs better on my mac, which opened up an entire new part of the game ( there are spaceplanes but because my mac is so bad it could not handle being on a planet so i was always orbital, but now i can actually do stuff on planets/moons at more than 5fps)


first thing i do= build a massive bomber that is so heavy its 8 engines can barely lift it at full power w/ a cruise missile/drone and fly 30ft over the ocean and launch it. :) this took an hour. and on takeoff it shakes and loses 2-4 engines or the entire tail section and usually some control surfaces/rcs thrusters, or just explodes ( 50/50 chance of explosion)

I'm currently listening to some Japanese music after getting home from TAFE (A learning institute thing). I'm going to talk to some friends, catch up on furtopia posts, do some work on an english assessment, make some notes on work I have to complete and play some Hearthstone.

the reason i sleep all day is because i have nothing better to do. i wake up, go to school, sleep, go on furtopia and talk with sciex (most productive time to me) then sleep.

the second reason for me sleeping all day is to just try to avoid being depressed so that i don't just start crying in mid day, all ready spent around 30 minutes doing so tonight and still don't feel any better just more tired.

I know what you mean :P

One thing kinda funny happened at one of the lectures
They were at the part at the end where the people ask questions
They had just said how earth with all its intricacies must be "created for a reason" and is "special" and that the possibility of life evolving was "statistically unlikely"

Speaker: "any questions?"

Person: "yeah, take into account that in our galaxy alone there are forty billion habitable planets and the fact that life might not necassarily evolve from the same stuff we did and also take into account multiverse theory, wouldnt earth be, statistically speaking, neither unique nor special?

Speaker: "..."
                [akward silence]
Speaker: "...um...well...anything outside the earth has nothing at all to do with the earth or the possibilities of life evolving, that will be the end of the questions goodbye"

I hate this, i mean, they take something with no scientific basis whatsoever and try to sell it off as fact.
Whats even worse is that a lot of people actually believe this crap in the face of all the evidence against it.

Yep. I know exactly what you mean. Some people use religion to determine what they think on certain issues and use religion as their way to try to back up their beliefs (Narrow-mindedness). Sadly I'm surrounded by some of those types of people.

just got in a fight with my mom last night because i wouldn't go into the house after she threatened me with the hose, then threatened to drag me into the house. good thing is that i didn't get wet or she didn't lay a hand on me. the only reason i still respect her is she is my mom and she is still a living thing. good thing is it doesnt bother me my mom has been bossy from the beginning of my life, and i just don't care any more. i spend most of my time at my dad's house and i am only with my family for 3 1/2 more years after than it's off to college.

currently i am wondering why the TV hates me..... i mean the exact times that i am not feeling well some comedian makes a joke about relationships or there is some move about some one finding true love...

latter today i am going back to my dad's then may play some games go to bed and try to go to sleep if im not too depressed to do so....

Song has to be under four minutes. Means I'll have to cut parts out. When I submit the recording there will be both versions of the song. The full and the cut.

They also have a bad habit of farting into your palm when you're holding and petting them. They don't have much in the way of good manners I'm afraid. But, then, niether do I so I'm in no place to criticize.

Considering boiling some eggs for breakfast and wondering why my yellow lab's skin is so loose. I suspect she may be a person in a fursuit but her mask won't come off. It doesn't help that when I tug at her fur she thinks I'm playing and starts gnawing on my arm and licking my face. If she is a person in a fursuit she's really into the role. She refuses to break character. And she must have spent a lot of money because it's the most realistic fursuit I have ever seen.

I've been trying to figure out what making a decent Furby fursuit would entail. Why I don't know because I have neither the skills nor the money to actually do so. It's just something to do. I figure my face and the suit's face wouldn't be in the same place. My head would be concealed in a tuft of fur atop the Furby's head and the actual Furby face would be on my chest. My arms would go in the ears since I often depict my fursona using his ears to hold and manipulate objects. I think it would be cool to add a mechanism to the eyes so they'd occasionaly blink at random though the beak wouldn't move. My legs are the thing I'm having trouble with. If the body ended where my legs began my legs would be far too long. The Furby body would probably have to go down to my knees but I'm not sure how I could do so without restricting my movement. Maybe make the lower part real loose so I could still walk at a decent pace. I'm not sure how well it would work. It's all theory at this point since I have nowhere near the means to actually do it. I've just been thinking about it for fun.

my nose bleeds easy too  :(
and how can you get your nose cauterized that must hurt alot
I went to the hospital after I had a really bad nose bleed that lasted for many hours (can't remember how long). I lost allot of blood and almost passed out and everything was going blurry (it was scary). They put some sort of pain killer stuff up your nose so it doesn't hurt as much. They then use silver nitrate to burn off blood vessels. After that I had to see a specialist where she treated me a couple of times in the same way. (You have to get it done a couple of times by a specialist to make sure that it is completely sealed etc..) So for me it was...

1. experience lots of blood noses
2. it gets so bad you end up in hospital
3. get sent to a specialist
4. get treated, wait for it to heal and then they checkup on how your doing
5. they treat you again if it's needed

However you can directly see a specialist about it. You should be able to fine one at an Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic.

After the treatment (which is actually part of the treatment) you may have to use a few different types of medicines on your nose. One for sterilization and another to keep it moisturized.

I am currently trying to stop the bleeding from my nose while attempting to make iced coffee and not getting blood in it
Do you get nosebleeds/blood noses frequently? (and what causes it) I had to get my nose cauterized because I got really bad nosebleeds in summer :/

I'm catching up with posts of Furtopia and chatting to Gray and Plantan :)

I wouldnt say i get them TOO frequently, but i guess it depens on what you mean by "frequently"
I think i get tham every few days or so
Usually it happens when its really dry or when there is a change in temperature or pressure, this means since its spring im getting more than normal cuz its warming up very fast

Also, what does "cauterized" mean?
Or is it some kinda disgusting thing that i dont wanna know about.


On topic,

I am:

Having Deja Vu for the third time today
Eating leftover pie
Throwing easter eggs at people's windows (hehehe)

Also, what does "cauterized" mean?

cauterizing is when they burn a wound closed. the way it works is that they just take some thing that can produce a lot of heat and burn/melt the wound to close it.


currently im listening to music and crying..... but there is one thing different and that is that im smiling....

If it gets problematic you should get your nose cauterized. (actually, you should probably do it before it becomes problematic) That way you won't get blood noses anymore ^.^

I was crying after my family had a go at me for wanting to do science at university. (my sister constantly yelling at me and my mum questioning my ethics. They don't want me dissecting animals which is actually only a minor part of studying biology. They don't seem to get that though.)

I then went to my room to cry alone and I was then rudely interrupted by my dad who then talked to me about "university courses" and "not feeling locked in" to what I want to do. (he wants me to look at other options" such as architecture which I really hate. I was too polite to ask him to leave but I really wanted him to. Then after my dad left my sister rudely interrupted me, not to apologize but to try to make herself feel better by repeating what she said again to me and saying that I should do environmental science or something and then take a bridging course if I want. She then left my room and interupted me another 3 or 4 times while I was trying to write this message.

This is a good example of my family once again wrecking my life and making me feel miserable.

Do what YOU want to do at college, I honestly can't stress that enough to people, because you will not enjoy life if you aren't doing what YOU love to do. Forget what other people think, and I'm a bit of an Eco-warrior at heart, but dissecting a bony fish is just part of the bigger picture, so I'm sure you aren't going to burn in hell for it. If i'm honest, them making a big deal about that is pretty silly honestly. The most that you'd be dissecting is a rat or some fish, it really just hardly happens. Most schools don't do it at all now, and it's always optional in higher education. What do they think all of their medicines and most products are tested on anyway? Nobody is innocent. ^-^

Parents often try to control their children to be just like them, regardless of if it has good intentions, and regardless of whether they actually enjoy what they are doing themselves.

Do what you want to do, seriously, that's all I can say, and if they argue, make it clear to them when they bring up ethics, that it's ethically wrong for THEM to try and control your life and your future. I'm pretty sure that they would regret it if you studied architecture, got a job that you hated in architecture, and was miserable for years because of it. If they still try and argue, and won't listen to logic, then ignore them, and do what you want anyways. I think that they need to stop being so selfish, and let you decide your own future.

Plus you won't do well in a subject you hate.

I'll say it again and end it here, do what you want to do, never let people the decisions in your life which will shape your future life. ;)

Thankyou so much bear ^^

My family is a bunch of hypocrites. Like you said, they still use products that would of gone through animal testing and they question about ethics when I've chosen to be vegan while they still eat animals daily. They are just trying to manipulate me as usual :/

Looking back on all the things they've said to me today, it's just the usual things they say to me daily but in a higher dose. All my friends know that I'm overloaded with work and think that I work too hard,  yet when I take abreak because I'm stressed my parents go off at me. From what I've read on the internet abusive parents get worse when your older and are more likely to gain independance. I'll just have to move out when I get the chance.

Post by: the lone shadow wolf on May 18, 2014, 01:26:30 pm
they cant control the course that you need to do (that is if they give you a collage fund)
and that can be a little hypocritical on your parents part but everything has to go through a process that we may not like but it has to be done someway through animal testing, well I think the only brave one in the process is the animal risking its life It could be worse If it was tested on people first.
if you want to be an environmental engineer then that is is your choice and no one can tell you wrong the only thing you can do wrong is accepting the future your parents want

I spent the last week manically organizing my space opera stories into two short anthologies.  It's been kind of intense, but now I have two anthologies to my name!  They're called Welcome to Wespirtech and Beyond Wespirtech.  I also got everything put together for releasing a third anthology, The Opposite of Memory, on June 2nd that will be a mix of hard sci-fi, surreal, and space opera.

So it's been a productive week!

If anyone here likes space opera and thinks they might want to review my anthologies, here's some coupon codes for free Smashwords version...

Welcome to Wespirtech
  CODE:  PP57Z
  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/439104

Beyond Wespirtech
  CODE:  QL36B
  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/439111

The coupons should be good until mid-June.  If you do write a review, it would be great if you could cross-post it to Amazon.  (The second anthology has more aliens -- canine aliens, sentient trees, and insect aliens.  But the first one has a story with octopus aliens.  Mostly they're not furry though.)

Trying out some new techniques bass-design wise. Destructive processing (i.e. time-stretching with various algorithms, weird WaveShaper derps, stupid pitch shifting, etc) on some rendered neuro bass samples I made. The aim here isn't to make the sounds in my head - instead to see what I can make out of the sounds I have, because it's fun and sometimes has awesome results

... not to mention it saves a bunch of CPU, some of the processing on that source sound.... I don't even....

Nothing much, just stuff to do with a  project I've been working on for a bit of practice - a HTTP server based off of serving content generated by C# classes that implement a 'PageHandler' abstract class that has methods like Get(request) etc. rather than the more traditional serving files or scripts that have been loaded from a file.... (Although that still is possible by writing a handler that loads the desired file and then serves it)

(No, it will probably never leave being a derpy test that never sees the light of day)

Trying to extract the vocals from The Ladies by Evol Intent.... I've been addicted to this track, and want to try doing a remix of it, just for the hell of it.
EDIT: Well apparently I'm going to have a bit of an issue with that.... layering the track with a reversed-polarity version of itself didn't result in silence for some reason, which, of course, makes using phase cancellation kinda impossible to use... what the... errr... fluff :|
In other, less 'I spend way too much time on music' news, fuming about how my family are complete idiots.

was watching a bunch of videos with uncle kage in them, news reports on anthrocon (Pittsburgh loves furries apparently), and a few fursuit videos.

really wish i could attend these conventions and go fursuiting but sadly iv still got 3 more years of high school then after that im going to need to get a job and money to afford a fursuit and to go to a con, so maybe 5 years till i get a fursuit commissioned, and maybe 6 till my first con. im really hating high school tho, i just see it as a waste of 4 years of my life, but sadly to get a good job you need to go through high school. i dont see how anything i "learn" in english class will help me later in my life, im pretty sure in what ever career i get into i will not need to know the theme of an author's book...

Spent the first night in my new flat. Dany was up and scrabbling about when I woke up, so she's come out to have a cuddle and get used to my room a bit more. Had her out in the living room yesterday and she seemed to like that. My room.... She's unsure about the walls. They are a pretty bright orange-red I suppose, but she'll soon work out she can't eat them.
Whether she'll remember is another matter. She sometimes gets confused by her own feet.

really doesnt help that the personal statement i was meant to do i didn't turn in, and im trying to think about what to say to him when he asks me why i didnt write/turn it in.

I'm in a small flat, so I'll probably end up keeping them in the airing cupboard in the bathroom :| I already share my house with one human, one lizard, 30 mealworms and up to two dozen locusts at any one time, sooo.... Whats a few roaches? XD

They seemed nice enough but my god, I forgot how draining it is to communicate solo with someone I don't know.

And nope, we've just got started integrating (although I know we should have started earlier, because we needed them in physics).

Although I think we know "Simpsons rule" over here as the "Kepler's rule"

Drew up a design for a new Fursona today. I decided I didn't want a Fursona based on a trademarked species after all so I based the new 'Sona off an Aibo robot dog though I'm keeping the Furb name.
My new Fursona is a mixture of an Aibo and a Poo-chi with a good bit of uncanny valley creepiness thrown in for good measure. I wanted to base it off Aibo as it's one of the few robot pets that I like even more than Furby.But I wanted it to be different enough that it's my own thing. I wanted to play up the creepiness some see in robot pets so I gave him glowing red eyes and rows of razor sharp metal teeth. He's also more anthropomorphic than any real robot dog since he's bipedal and has hands rather than stubby paws. I'm still not totally satisfied with my design but I'll keep working on it.

I like how the werewolves have tails in the Elder Scrolls series. It seems rare for werewolves to be given tails for some reason.
You. I like you.

Just woke up and probably going to get breakfast . Yesterday we almost bought a Shiba Inu puppy. It was probably the cutest thing I've ever seen, she seemed to like me the most. We held her and played with her for 20 minutes. We haven't had a dog in like 11 years(because after our dog died it wasn't the same, and we didn't want to have another dog. It didn't feel the same after) so I really wanted a dog more(it kinda reminded me of a little Fox). So that was my highlight of the week seeing the Shiba Inu.

Right now, uh...let's just say my gears are are turning at light-speed right now.  I think Storm Fox can personally vouch for that now.  xD

That downside about having an insanely active mind is that I need to wind down if I want to sleep, and it's not exactly easy, especially when I've been meandering around on foot for hours on end like I did today.  That's where most of my pondering and insight comes - when my body is active, so is my mind.  d:

Going out food shopping with an old uni friend in a little bit, picking up some veg to make little prepackaged salads for my beardie, so my housemate can easily feed her while I'm away for a few days getting my car fixed up and serviced. I need to get the front bumper off and replaced - Got clipped a few months back and it's scratched to all hell now. I repainted the bits of bodywork that were a bit torn by hand, so they don't show as much.

I actually got back not long ago, too...from the Capital City Pride festival.  I was only there for a very short time, though - it was a bit of a learning opportunity for me about "sensory overloads," and though I wouldn't say it was a "hard" lesson, the experience was important because now I get to go to the drawing board and figure out how to avoid sensory overloads in social gatherings and festivals and such.  Every day is a day for learning!  xD

He suddenly stops and roars. Legit, proper loud roar. He carries on strutting down the road and about 10 meters on, he announces to no one, "sometimes, you just gotta ROAR".
Then as he walks away he breaks out into Blur's Song 2.

Just got back from meandering outdoors...in the 90+ degree weather here in Olympia, Washington.  I dunno about anyone else here, but extreme heat and cold don't really bother me much at all.  The kind of heat we're having here now isn't exactly "normal" for Olympia, though - I moved to Washington from Phoenix a couple months back, and it was around the beginning of last month that I started noticing the drought conditions.  Although I can handle the heat, that doesn't change the fact that it's pretty dangerous to spend a whole lot of time outdoors during the day; I passed two people walking their bikes up the hill close to my apartment, and I honestly wished I had some extra water bottles with me, because their physical and mental fatigue was coming off of them in waves.

On a somewhat-unrelated note, I'm shaking my head at the sale and use of Independence Day fireworks.  It's far too hot and dry for them to be set off - there's even a sign in front of the fire station near my apartment that says in big letter, "FIRE DANGER HIGH."  Apparently, people don't realize how little it takes for a fire to start in these kinds of climatic conditions... -sigh-

As a western WA state resident for only 13 years, I can attest most of the people out here have no clue how to manage the heat and it bothers us deeply.

We still try to do our regular activities, but don't prepare for them correctly nor respect the heat. I'm slowly figuring out how and when I can exercise ny dog. So far that means having plenty if hydrating fluids on hand always, and only going out to exercise extremely early in the morning or late at night.

But we still make plenty of stupid, dangrous mistakes like the cycling buddies you saw.

A lot of it is common sense, but at the same time, the conditions here aren't exactly "normal" for Washington, so I think a lot of this is simply people not being accustomed to it.  I can wear protective clothing and go out in this heat during the day, and for pretty long periods of time, no less - I walked the ten miles to Wolf Haven International couple days ago starting from about 11am, but...that's just me.  Having a hydration pack is an amazing help, though, and something everyone who goes outside should consider, but that's still no substitute for common sense.

I'm actually considering walking around with a backpack full of water bottles simply because I know what the hell I'm doing and because I care about others.  You don't screw around in this kind of heat.

EDIT: As for what I'm doing right now, I'm just chillin' in my apartment...annoying by the fireworks being shot off outside because I can hear them through my closed window and the music playing through my headphones.  Having "animal-like" hearing does come as a double-edge...lol.

Oh, and I was playing Descent 2 not long ago, but I took a break because I was getting my butt kicked too much, haha.  I love Insane difficulty~  xD

I just went back onto the first forum I ever joined, back in 2003. I've not posted there in four years, and then I said very little.

It's strange... It's like going back to a house you grew up in, but everything's changed a bit, in ways that you can't quite put your finger on. And some that are glaringly obvious. A lot of old faces are still there. Some have faded away. Several members I talked with a lot back then have died. Some of them several years ago. Some of them young, and some through violent means. It's jarring.

Well, something incredibly cool and something annoying happened.

First, I got my scuba certification completed, so now I'm a PADI certified Open Water diver.

The annoying? I had a dentist trip, where my teeth in great shape, except one little bugger who was juuuuuuust bad enough to warrant a small filling. They did it quick, clean, and easy, but I need to go back because there was a little resin on the side that accidentaly clumped up. Not effecting anything really, but it's excess filling that shouldn't be there. :\ Bright side is that there's no numbing agent required, just a bit of time and filing. -_-

Doing research on the revolutionary war. Already learned a lot. I'm trying to find more about the Jägers. here's what I've read. Jägers, also colloquially referred to as Hessians, were a detachment of German troops that were contracted by the British to fight in the American revolutionary war. However, they operated independently of most British protocols. Disciplined and well trained in the woodlands of Southwestern Germany, Jägers specialized in deep forest and wilderness combat, tactics and reconnaissance, as well as unconventional warfare. As such, they were regarded as an elite scouting unit, used for surveying an area ahead of a body of troops or leading the way on the front lines.

The Jägers gained a fierce reputation as fearsome warriors and reliable, disciplined troops, and they were well respected within the ranks of the British Army. Cool huh? The Patriots should have had these guys. It said that In German, Jäger means "huntsman" or "hunter". Makes sense though. Learning about war is awesome.

Christmas still has a bit of magic left in it for me. But since my mother passed 11 years ago
I haven't had much reason to celebrate it. So I usually end up watching Animated Christmas
specials from years past.  I am doing that this year too. Along with being here on Furtopia..
I hope everyone has a nice day. We should remember there are those in the world who are
hungry, sick, and or homeless.. Though some place the fault of their circumstance on them.
It's generally not true.

All of us on this lonely planet within the cold vastness of space need to look after each other.
Even though some wish to hate, or kill, we should try to make our selves an example for
good in the world.

Happy Holidays to you all. :orbunny:

Christmas takedown! Boxes and boxes and boxes of stuff. I've learned a long time ago to put packing lists on the outside of each box. I tape a zip lock bag to the end that will be on the outside of the stack. This way all I have to do is pull out the list to see what's in the box. I also keep several boxes to put new things in as I add to the collection. Then these get distributed out to like items derring the takedown. This is the only way to keep track of a very large collection of anything.

I would like to point out I'm not a hoarder. Believe is sharing the joy of collecting. I don't need everything I see. There are plenty of other people who enjoy the old and funky Christmas stuff.

Just got done cleaning an old giclee art print. Was covered in a thick layer of tar. Took over four hours to clean. It has some major damage. Evidently someone had tried to clean it before. They cleaned a good portion of the sky and mountains right off the print. It was cut down in size to fit the frame it's in now. About eight inches shorter than the actual painting. Bad color staining. The tar stained the giclee print dark. The last bit of damage I caused. Used a bit of rubbing alcohol in one section. Really bad mistake. I picked this picture up at an auction for $1.00. It's totally worth the $1.00 I spent. Despite it's damage it's still a great piece of art.  To get a new one in perfect condition it'd cost well over $300.

A link to the actual painting,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Bierstadt#/media/File:Sierra_Nevada_Albert_Bierstadt_circa_1871.jpeg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Bierstadt#/media/File:Sierra_Nevada_Albert_Bierstadt_circa_1871.jpeg)

Mine has almost all the sky and mountains missing from the trees over to the right side. It fades out like it's a light gray foggy cloud bank.

I have to correct myself. I cleaned an old lithograph. NOT a giclee printing. Did some research and have to correct myself. One thing that surprises me. A modern giclee print will look good for 25 years. A lithograph will look good for well over 200 years. I have a late 1800's litho on wood. Looks as bright today as it did 200+ years ago. So if your thinking of getting art. Buy the posters. They're cheaper and will last just as long.

Just finished reading Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness, marking the third of his stories I've read. The first four chapters were rather slowly paced, but I'm glad I stuck around.

Besides that, I beta-tested the latest build of Freedom Planet on steam. Torque's a playable character, in a limited sense! His playstyle is all about the pew-pew.

^^ welcome back! :)

I am taking a break from studying for my history test and chemistry quiz tomorrow. I am cautiously confident for both.

I am noticing a new trend in my history class: my teacher doesn't tell us ANYTHING. First the salon, and now I don't know if our test has an essay, let alone what it is about. Also, she doesn't answer my emails. Argh.

Just finished watching the jazz drama Whiplash. The movie is about an aspiring jazz drummer who joins a prestigious band, but the director is verbally and physically abusive in order to push his students to do their very best. It was one of the most intense movies I've seen in a while.

FINALLY getting over a horrible cold that's been plaguing me for the better part of a week. On the other hand, I've had a LOT of night of hot tea with a puppy on my lap watching Star Trek TNG. (knocked out who knows, at least 30 episodes, probably more over 5 nights. >< That's what not being able to sleep will do.)

Looking forward to getting back on my feet again. I need to write, and see about getting a counselor appointment to get started in going back to school!

It's time for Animaniacs
And we're zany to the max
So just sit back and relax
You'll laugh 'til you collapse
We're Animaniacs!

Come join the Warner Brothers
And the Warner Sister, Dot
Just for fun we run around the Warner movie lot.
They lock us in the tower whenever we get caught
But we break loose and then vamoose
And now you know the plot!

We're Animaniacs!
Dot is cute and Yakko yaks.

Wakko packs away the snacks
While Bill Clinton plays the sax.
(or We've got wisecracks by the stacks.)
(or We pay tons of income tax.)
We're Animaniacs!
Meet Pinky and the Brain who want to rule the universe.
(or Meet Ralph and Dr Scratchansniff; say hi to Hello Nurse.)
Goodfeathers flock together; Slappy whacks 'em with her purse.
Buttons chases Mindy, while Rita sings a verse.
The writers flipped; we have no script
Why bother to rehearse?

 We're Animaniacs!
We have pay-or-play contracts.
We're zany to the max
There's baloney in our slacks.

Preparing critical care formula for my beardie. She's got a history of MBD, and is going to lay eggs any day now. Last time she did, about half of them were poorly shelled and she may have drawn calcium from her bones to shell them (and this was with extra calcium supplements). Going to get the stuff sorted out now so I can pour some into her mouth as soon as she is done laying.

Yes, a little bit. I don't do it for every model project, but only for those that are really big projects that take me anywhere from 1-5 years to complete.  :-[ The document isn't necessarily about the history of the real object (Though I will add in bits and pieces of real history for the spectator to read.), but rather a "log" of all the buildup construction (Additions, Deletions, Painting, etc.) done on the model. And not every model project document is 50 pages long.  :-[  :D Some can be 5, 10, 20, or even nothing at all. I generally put the document in a 3-ring binder and take it with me to contests to show other modelers and help explain what I've done.

Pointed out to my boss (who I'm doing it as an unpaid favor to because he finds certain tasks tedious) that there were several errors in the numbers. He's told me to can the entire data set I was working on. Which winds up with me with nothing to do.

On the upside he is going to teach me how to take all the measurements needed so he can build his own, more impressive, more accurate data set. But this involves teaching me in person so I've got nothing to do relating to the project for a few days.

Went to see the new ALIEN Covenant movie today. On a scale of 1-10, I'd probably give it a 7 or 8. I've read a lot of past articles and reviews that have said this film was meant to be more horrifying and scarier. Bloodier and more gory, Yes. But more scary and horrifying? I'm not so sure. Maybe? The movie also took awhile to "get up to speed" so to speak with the plot and action. Would have liked to see more Aliens and more Alien action too in the film. I thought the character of Daniels was great and a terrific nod to the past film franchise character of Ellen Ripley.  ;)
Will be interesting to see where the whole ALIEN story/universe goes further in the supposed ALIEN Awakening future film I've heard and read about.

They also have dual standards for men and women in the service. Physical training being one. Women combat pilots can "opt out" of flying combat  sorties.  Some combat jets must be modified so the petite pilots can reach all the controls--at taxpayer expense--plus the availability of that aircraft is limited to that one pilot.

Loc, bummer dude. What works for me is those thermacare heat pads. They say their good for up to eight hours. But i've had them good for close to twelve. They work slow but they work wonders for me. Really hope this brings you some comfort.

Trying not to throw a fit. My sewing machine is acting up and i don't know how to fix it. I have a friend who sews professionally. Hoping to see her tomorrow and get some help. Still have a lot to do on this steampunk thing. Without a machine I wont be able to get the anthro arm, legs and tail done. Or finish the clown suit.

Recklessly losing sleep due to a sudden internet addiction.

Most likely a sign of anxiety. Because there is a lot I am up to. I'm quitting my job, I'm selling my house by owner, I'm moving to the other side of the state, I'm starting a freelance enterprise, I'm looking for work, I'm taking care of my wife and kid, I'm writing music and programming a sound engine, I'm helping other people program with their projects online, I'm maintaining a website, and I'm doing lots of house work so the house can be presentable for selling.

But mostly I'm getting overwhelmed and escaping into the internet as a refuge.

Fleeyock, stop for a bit and just get some sleep. You'll be better off for it. If you find it hard to sleep there's a trick that helps a lot of people.  Think of scenes or pitcher things in your head. Let your head be the guid. Just one thing after another. Just scenes.

Made a tail and furry arm! They're part of a steampunk costume. Going to be a part anthro circus freak MC. I have no desire for a fursuit. After putting that arm on? I really REALLY have no desire for a full fur suit. The material uses is a quality Luxury Shag. Great to work with. Very smooth and comfortable to wear. But there's no way I'll cover myself with it. That arm is hot enough. Tail came out great. To make it easy to wear I permanently sewed it to the pants.

I'm a planner. Especially if I'm going somewhere. I need to know what I'll be doing at what time and how long I'll be doing it. Or i'm uncomfortable as all getout. So I spent the last two hours making a  three day schedule for a steampunk festival. I even have times to remember to eat. I leave bathroom breaks open. Let nature take care of itself.  :)  Now I don't have every hour filled. There are 'wonder' times where i'm free to do what ever. Catching a lot of great stuff. Steampunk has some great music. This is one of the bands i'll be seeing live.

This way to the Egress

So at the steampunk fest my fears about my sewing and pants came true. My pants started coming apart. Partly because I didn't know what I was doing. And partly because the material was so old it was fraying to pieces. So I talked to a few people and learned a lot. Spent over 12 ours sewing up some striped material the right way. I've redone my patterns and will have a pair of clown pants that will be as well put together as any good pair of jeans.  In a few weeks I'll be going to a sci-fi / fantasy con. I'll be wondering the halls as 'Third Clown from the Left' 2.0.

Got up this morning to take a shower. No hot water. Looks like both elements will have to be replaced. So when I got home tonight I drained the tank. And got ready for the fight. The top element came out without a hitch. But that's never the problem child. The bottom element is the one I usually fight a good two or more hours to get out. This time? No more than five minutes. It wasn't split. Just bent. This is the first time this was so easy! Now I'm hoping to get new elements in and water heated before I take a shower tomorrow. I shower everyday. Right now I'm feeling like living Crisco.  :D

I met a fake person today. I haven't met a fake person in years. It all started with a hand shake. A deliberately painful handshake that he joked about. He then said, and I'm quoting him word for word. "I'm a mellow, fun loving guy...." I'll stop quoting. It sounded like he was reading a script. Or something you would write for a dating site when you don't really have anything to say about yourself.  I've met people like him. I understand that most people wear masks or at times put up a front. I can read the body language and know they have something that hurts. Or they're avoiding. But someone who's entire presentation is fake? I hate people like that. Their words tell me one thing. Their body language and facial movements scream something else. I'll avoid this guy like the plague.

AWESOME Rocket! Sounds like you had a blast! ( pun intended )

If I typed in 'setback' 28 times in a row it still wouldn't be enough. Still working on the same guitar build. I have to re scale all the templets. The good news is it's all on paper. So I'm not wasting wood. Well not wasting any more wood is a better way of putting it. Chalk it up to beginner mistakes. I've only made two other guitars. The first was a complete disaster. The second had some major mistakes.  Learned wile I fixed and worked around them. It's now my got to and favorite sounding guitar. Honestly I wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't fun.

And the ultimate of all setbacks. The file that I had all my full sized guitar bodies on a 3x3 grid pattern got deleted..... For a short time. All I had to do was go to the program and reopen it. It did a file recovery and I have 100% of all those hours of work back.

But I did get tired of all the setbacks so I made a square box guitar body. I have the body complete and the neck attached. Lined up the bridge. Now I'll need to do a lot of fret and neck work. I bought the cheapest guitar neck i could find. Knowing I would have to do this. This will let me practice the skills I'll need when setting up mine and other's guitars. I'll start with a complete guitar nut filing. Then a complete fret leveling, recrowning and end filing. Truss rod adjustment and match the bridge to the fretboard radios. Already know how to play with the truss rod and bridge. Fretwork is what I need practice on. Once everything is done I 'll take the bridge and neck back off. Then paint up the body in the style of a 1960's transistor radio.

Got pulled over last night. Because my license plat wasn't lit. Cop took my drivers license and did a check. Came back and said these exact words. "WOW. Your squeaky clean." I thought, but didn't say out loud. 'wow, you sound disappointed.'  :D The entire experience was fun. There is a real good chance I'll run into him the next time I need gas after work.

Just been racing around the garden with the dog. She's full of energy today and had a good zoom about, bouncing into all the raised beds, racing up and down, while I chased her.

Our garden is on a slope and I have bad knees, so I'm already ready to call it a day. She'll want to play again in about ten minutes so I'm sat on the garden bench with a coffee, my laptop, and a copy of 'Salem's Lot to wait until she wants me to throw a ball for her.

Just did part of my Xmas shopping. Normally, I'd head out to brick and mortar stores as I'd rather give them the business instead of buying online. But since my mom mostly wanted books and movies for Xmas, I had to shop online at Amazon instead of Barnes & Noble since I haven't renewed my B&N membership in quite a while. B&N prices are quite expensive if you don't have a membership.

Still decorating for Christmas.  The main tree is finally done. Most of the collections are displayed. Still have the village to put up.  And my fake feather tree.  Because I broke a toe I wasn't able to go and down a latter. So all the window and crown molding ( I don't have crown molding. It's just the best way to describe where the garland would go ) evergreen garland will have to wait till next year.

Recovering! Wednesday after getting home from work I got bit in the back of the neck by a spider. I brushed it off. I've been bitten a few times before with no ill effects. I didn't think anything of it. Thursday I woke up feeling like I had a flue coming on. It's that time of year so I didn't think anything of it. But did call in and took a day off. As the day went on I got to feeling worst. Fell asleep on the couch. When I awoke I was as red as a Coke can and swollen from head to toe. My throat was also partially swollen shut. Not exactly how I wanted to spend a day off. So I ended up at the hospital. They did all their tests to determine I had an allergic reaction to the bite. Gave me some meds and a note to stay home from work Friday. Admit both Friday and Saturday were not good days. But feel and look great today. Unfortunately with no spidy powers. Means I'll have to go to work tomorrow. Not feeling all that great about that.

I've learned that 'No Man's Sky' is not only still a thing. But it's WAY better than the original game. I loved watching this game when it came out. Despite all the downsides to it. This is the only game I've ever seen that I actually want to play. Haven't played any game for quite a wile now. Last one was Diablo 2. Now I'm debating if it's worth buying a play station just for one game. Not going to by a PC just for a video game.

This requires a fair amount of caution. Don't try it inside. It might seem
obvious, but it's easy to forget how volatile propane is.  Make sure your
connections are clean as well.

Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers, knocking at my door. I want to go out. Don't know if I can. Cause I'm so afraid of the Tommyknocker man.

As for the Day After, it's a very chilling film. Probably one of THE best films ever to dramatically show what a nuclear holocaust would really be like.

Like the Star Trek and Tommyknocker ones!  Never seen "The Day After".

Remember the Tommyknocker rhyme?
Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers, knocking at my door. I want to go out. Don't know if I can. Cause I'm so afraid of the Tommyknocker man.

As for the Day After, it's a very chilling film. Probably one of THE best films ever to dramatically show what a nuclear holocaust would really be like.

Oh yes! Remember that rhyme well!

Might have to rent The Day After and see what is what.

Sitting in a park at 1135pm. Listening to music being blasted over a loud speaker from a Toyota dealer lot. Right next to a residential area.  I believe it's psychological warfare to drive people out, or drive home prices lower so that they can buy them and expand the dealership. Been this way for 5+years.

Both drawing and painting people figures. No faces or details. Just the over all shape. Over and over and over. Enjoying better now because I'm getting better at it. I got lotto tickets earlier today. I won! I won a free ticket! I know it isn't much. Just trade one piece of paper in for another. But It's the piece of paper I won!

I've never done it. But have heard for years that these two pieces of media line up perfectly. Even talked to people who said they had watched it done. I wouldn't put it past Pink Floyd to do something this off the wall crazy.

Well didn't get me a playstation. But did start playing on line poker again. For free. Not paying to play. Today I had something happen that is statistically impossible. I got the same three hands. Each time in a different suit. For 15 minutes strait. K3, A3 and 9,8. Over and over and over. Now if you know anything about poker you'd know all three hands are not playable. Bad hands isn't the problem. Getting these same three hands for 15 minutes strait is. I've also played where no matter what cards I got I would or could have won. I stop playing when that happens too. It's no fun if the game is being handed to you.

Spent a bit of time browsing fursuit maker websites. Wow, what a difference makes.  :o When I first got my husky suit back in 2006, my suit cost $1400. Now when I see prices for a full suit, mainly toony, the prices have skyrocketed to around $3000 to $4000+.  :o Realistic full fursuits are anywhere between $5000 to $10k.  :o

I can't help but wonder what prices will be like in another 5-10 years. If I wanted another fursuit, guess I'd better start playing lottery tickets or looking for a $75,000k a year job.  :(

Yeah... I hate to admit how crazy I went on mine.  But I DO know that I will NOT do that again!
I know for me, if I get another , its plantigrade toony follow-me eyes, minimal padding in 5 finger hands, stuffed animal nose, basic jaw, flexible ears, detachable tail, shortest fur lengths possible, happy disposition, gender neutral, and very unique patterns and colors yet natural and elegant (ha, yeah right) .  And I will not spend over $2500 tops.  Its honestly too much.  If I have time and skill, I will make the next one. 

It does seem that some makers are charging what they can, and pushing prices up and up.  And this seems very unfair.  Thus, maybe I make the next one and become a fursuit maker.  :D

I have my doubts you'd find a maker who can do all that without going over $2500. But........anythings possible I guess. $2500 was probably the "norm" for a full fursuit 5-10 years ago. But now.........$3000 or above seems to be the new norm. At least from what I'm seeing anyway.

My CAP unit has expressed interest in entering the Team America Rocketry Challenge next year. Those are basically a fancy egg-lofting contest with goals set on how high the model should fly and/or duration aloft with an on-board altimeter. The egg passenger must recover intact for a qualified flight. Models are custom-built and  may be limited in mass, impulse, and mode of recovery.

Rules for the 2020 competition have yet to be posted. The county in which my CAP squadron resides has already fielded two successful TARC teams from two different high schools. This is a rural/agricultural-oriented county btw.

As some of you know I play three string cigar box guitars. I’ve belonged to forum for people with this hobby for years now. For years there’s been a conflict between me and 90% of the people on that forum. Including the owner/mod. The type of music played on these instruments. Everything blues. Just the blues. Maybe some country but everything the blues. Pegging these real instruments to one style of music. My argument against this is based both in human nature and historical fact. Human nature being you get an instrument to play the songs you like. Songs that are popular. Historical fact. The first recorded song played on a cigar box was ‘Beans’. A popular song in the mid to late 1800’s. Not a blues song. I’ve had posts deleted on this forum. For nothing more than disagreeing with the ‘blues only’ stance. Lots of history between me and this popular idea.

So, I’ve waited a year or two. From the last time I was put down or told I’m wrong. Time to prove my point. What I’ve been up to.

I made a thread on that forum. Displaying 19 different chord sounds. All between open and the fifth fret of an instrument tuned 1,5,8. Standard tuning for a three string guitar. Instead of just showing the chords I displayed them in song style samples. So by the time you played all the different samples given you learn all 19 chord sounds. Never mentioning a single music style. Not a single ‘blues’ style sample given. Wonder how that happened? :)

This thread has been viewed over 140 times now. Good people are learning to play good music. Taking their music to new heights. This thread will always be on the first page of this area of that forum. Because I have so much more I can show. I can keep it there for years. For those of you who figured it out. Yes. I am undermining the blues only idea. In the guise of “ the more you know the more fun you’ll have.” Right under their noses. Letting the creativity of other musicians do it for me.

Moral to this story. Don’t make a RAT mad. :)

Preparing for a job interview.
Stressing out too.  Could be good pay, but I think it comes with some not so fun strings attached.
They really seem to want me, which sounds good  yet they are so eager it seems like maybe I'm stepping into a meat grinder.

May have to work in a not so fun classified environment, which may mean I might work in a locked room, with no access to the outside world 9 to 12 hours per day. No phone, internet, nothing. Been in that situation before, didn't like it.  But I need a job and this is all that has come my way.

Looking forward to hearing good news from the interview Jade.

Been keeping an eye on that cigar box guitar thread I started. For a small forum it's got over 180 reads now. I've already got the second two lessons done. But not uploaded. I'll wait till the interest dies down a bit. Still waiting for the backlash. Odd that it hasn't happened. Usually only takes a few days before the "blues only" crowd comes crashing down on me. There is another reason why I did this. Got tired of hearing people complain. They buy or build a cigar box guitar. Then quickly get board with the limitations placed on these instruments. I belong to a cigar box club that meets once a month in ST Louis. I talk to these folks face to face. Show them a few things and watch them run with it. I've tried this in the past on that forum. Already said what happened. Waiting for that to happen again. Until this thread gets deleted for all the heated arguments against me, nothing I posted, I'll keep it up.

My continual undermining of the blues only cigar box guitar belief. I'm surprised. I really am. By now the 'in' crown should be ripping me apart. With over 220 reads someone should have taken notice. I keep waiting for the bashing and bad mouthing. I don't have to post. they come in a trash the thread, Then the thread gets deleted. But nothing is happening.  I added a new demo with a chord progression to boot. Three more chords. I have a plan in place. In case the usual happens. I'll repost the entire thread. Without the rude comments. Then continue adding more information and ideas.

A few years ago a member of the forum was trying to reproduce a Lace guitar pickup. They guy from Lace pickups actually joined him on the forum. They were redesigning the Lace pickup to be thinner. And to fit under three or four strings. The 'in' crowd came in and ripped the forum member apart. Same crowd I'm waiting for. :) This guy ended up deleting all his posts. Left the forum. Lace has not only finished this pickup design but they are now putting out their own line of cigar box guitars. I'm more than positive this forum member continued to work with Lace to perfect this design.

Update! After 12 days they ( the folks who own the forum ) have found a way to stop me from posting. I can now only read and only post text. I can see everyone else's photos and vids. Can't post any of my own.  Here's a link to this thread. See if you can find a reason for me to be blocked.

So what am I up to now. Time to make a YouTube channel. Scripting and planing stages now. Have to break this down. Increments that will make sense. Easy to follow for complete beginners. But still interesting to folks who have played for a wile. Then I'll post links and vids on every Cigar Box Guitar Facebook page and forum that isn't associated with this forum.

The've never contacted me before. But by using what's been said and done in the past by the 'in' crowd and moderator. It's simple. I'm not playing the blues. I'm not demonstrating blues techniques. The same as in the past. I didn't violate any forum rules. In the past folks would post and verbally thrash me. I would answer back. Stating I'm helping folks play more than just one music genre. Instead of deleting the thrashing posts the entire thread would be deleted. Surprised this thread is still up. In the mean time I'll be getting that Youtube channel together. Because I'm a rat. If you wont let me play on the mountain. I'll make the mountain come to me. :)

All I want to do is help people have more fun.  A cigar box guitar is no different from any other real musical instrument. The more you know the more fun you'll have playing it. The type of music someone plays should come from the heart. Not from a popular belief.

Update on the Cigar Box Guitar stuff. Well surprises never seem to stop. After my original post got over 400 views I'm back to being able to post like normal. Not that I'm going to. Unless someone has a question my last post on that thread will be a link to the Youtube cannel. Still working out a flow plan for video lessons. There is some good news. A hand full of the newer members are also questioning the blues only idea behind these guitars.  I may go splash around a bit. You know, the rat thing. :)

what most of my effort is going into now is new songs.  Going to play at a cigar box guitar fest next month. Be the second year for this fest. Played there last year and had a blast. I know the guy who put this event together.

Got my playlist down. And a good set of lyrics for that new rhythm I've been messing around with.  Still have to get the hang of playing and singing that one at the same time. Not a strummer. I like my songs to be as fun to play as they are to sing. Spend most of this weekend and a good part of next week getting that song put together. Wile working on that I'll be playing the complete set two to four times a day. Start to finish. You can't do two things at one time. So I'll have to rely on muscle memory to play. And learn to quickly switch between what I need to concentrate on to get these songs done right. Believe it or not the easiest thing to forget is a song you wrote. By the time I'm done I'm going to hate playing these songs. Figure I'll be playing this set up to 120 times before that weekend. With this much under my belt even if I do make a mistake I'll be able to play around it. No one will know but me. Unless it's a complete crash and burn. then I'll make fun of myself. Get the audience to laugh and go on.

Hopefully get a fuel pump for my vehicle.  It has 215,000 miles on it, and apparently the original factory pump typically lasts 150,000 to 200,000 miles... so.....prophylactic replacement since tank has to come down for another repair/mod anyway.  And if I find I can't do fuel pump replacement, then new pump gets returned asap.

Then also respond to ANY jobs that may come to me from the 50+ targeted applications I have put in.
And then hope to volunteer at animal shelter 2 days this week to help them do dishes, laundry, repairs, dog walking, and stuff.

After some weeks of thinking things through I've come up with lesson plans for that cigar box Youtube channel.  For me it's always been 'start complicated then think it over'. Always try to make things to complicated.  Now I have to get the chord chart graphics made. Set up a place to film. Edit it all together and upload. Plan on filming the eight planned lessons and the opener all in the day.  Get at least the opener and three of the lessons edited. Create the channel and upload.  I have seven Facebook groups I can post on to advertise. And one forum. If I'm able to post there again. More on that below. Looking forward to helping people get more out of and have more fun on these fun to play instruments. Really excited about this.

In the middle of a conversation I got blocked on that forum again. My offending post? Showing picture of a Fender guitar's bridge. The guy used the exact same bridge on his six string build. Was told wrongly the bridge is set straight across so each string is at the scale length of the guitar. So a few days after I posted the pic I wrote in a post explaining tuning the string harmonics blah blah blah. String thickness blah blah blah and all the rest of the goodies that go with a tunable bridge. Hit post. Nothing. I was blocked again. I got blocked for trying to help someone again. it would be like if I was a fursuit maker. Someone asked about keeping a fursuit head symmetrical. Me posting a pic of a proportional divider compass. The mods here blocking me for that picture. It's gotten beyond ridicules.

Most of the graphics are done for the first cigar box guitar lesson. Going to set up and shoot the first few lessons Sunday or early next week. Playing at a festival this weekend. That's taking priority at the moment.

Learning a few editing techniques. Had to learn how to upload a channel banner for youtube from a mac. Why? Because you need to be psychic and use an ouija board to learn how to operate this thing. First you have to sign out of Google. Then choose to 'not except cookies' and turn off your browser. Then turn your browser back on. Sign into google.  Select to accept cookies. Turn your browser back off. Turn it back on and your set to go. Why? Because it's a mac...... I'll have to learn how to upload a channel trailer too. Because that's voodoo mojo magic from a mac as well. Luckily uploading videos is straight forward. Plan on keeping this as low fi as you can get. Bad camera, cheezy graphics and no video effects.

I think I'm going to have some fun with this. Going to start a thread on that forum. Talk about setting up a youtube channel. Talk like I am here. May even cut and past the above section of this post. Keep everything positive. Not mention or hint at how many times I've been blocked. Tell why I'm doing this. Honestly it's to help people explore and have more fun on a three string cigar box guitar. And hopefully get more people interested in it. Say something like ' expanding music possibilities will get more people interested in these guitars.' Positive stuff like that. The same stuff that gets me shut off that forum all the time. The other reason? Because i'm a ret. When you step on a rat's tail his first instinct is to remove your foot. How am I removing their foot you may ask? By politely saying I'm taking what i was doing here to a bigger audience. By stating all the Facebook groups I'll be able to post update info on.  By politely letting them know I don't need them. Politely chewing their foot off and letting them know it. :) The only person that needs to read this new thread is the mod. If this thread is deleted it's still a victory for me. I was helping a lot of great people on that forum. I will continue doing that.

And you thought the furry fandom's drama was the worst. :) I'll keep everyone here informed.

Let's see how long it takes before;
it get's deleted.
I get bashed by the in crowd.
I'm unable to post again.
and honestly what would surprise me, nothing happens.

I know it's a long winded thread. But if you read through it you'll see I didn't post anything about music styles or expanding the acceptance of these instruments.

Not intended for any one genre. Perhaps that'll get the fireworks going. This is fun. It's like prodding something with a stick.   :D

Bummed out that no dog I interact with even comes close to the dog Heidi, who I lost.
Wishing I could have her back, which of course I can't.  Wishing i could find another dog who would be as much fun, or at the very least listen to me.
So basically I am drowning in the sad realisation of what/who I lost, and that I will not ever have it again.

Change of plans on uploading the channel. Instead I'm recording and uploading three songs to current Youtube channel. Then I'll distribute those three songs amongst the different cigar box facebook groups. Only uploading one of these songs on each group. But not all the groups. Hoping these songs raise interest in this approach to playing. Because no one that I've heard so far plays these guitars the same way I do. I've checked hundreds of videos. There's only one guy who comes slightly close. So there is nothing like me in the cigar box guitar world. May even upload more songs and spread them out unevenly. Then get the new Youtube channel out and about. Give me more time to settle down and get things right.

Reasons for not uploading all three songs on each page. Putting different songs out. And not on all pages I belong to. There's a guy who puts his stuff on every facebook page at the same time. So you go from page to page and get tired of seeing him. Worst is he's not getting views or comments. Flooding the market backfired on him. But he keeps doing it. Later on I can go back and upload a different one of those three songs on the groups I've already hit. And hit some of the groups with one song that i've missed.

I'll upload all three songs on the CBG forum I belong to. My way of poking them with a stick again. :)

Yeah, there are a few of them...
Sometimes I wonder if I am bad for places...

First place I worked, went out of business, and I feel I was part of it.
Second place i worked, same story
Third place I worked, I replaced a guy who retired, and he tried to train me, and died before he could complete the training.  And then I floundered for a year and the company had hard times.
Forth place I worked, i replaced a guy who was in process of retiring, and he refused to train me as he was directed to do so, and i eventually left there and it made people suffer
SO... maybe I am bad for places.

Because now I am here, and people are dropping like flies.


What I am up to now?
I am wondering how I can have a job, and a dog, and have time for it?  Because it is all I care about anymore.
I am also finishing putting a second ammeter in my vehicle.  It is interesting to see battery current AND generator current.  Because now I know "everything".  Essentially, i can see how much current the battery is taking, and how much the generator makes, and the difference is what is consumed by vehicle!  And it is all for nothing anyway!

Then there's the few hundred other things that have to go up. I'll spend this month putting it all up. People will come over and enjoy it for a few days. Then I'll spend next month taking all back down. Unpacking everything that goes back in place. Then do it all over next year. I it worth it? Yes.

Still recovering from removing my back seat in my jeep and stripping it down to bare frame,  hand washing the upholstery and foam in woolite. This was all because a fun large dog just hosed down the back rest of the back seat with stinky urine.  I think he hates me.  This was 1 week ago.  Hands got beat up from it and back really wrenched. But the seat is like brand new!
Took 6 hours to do.  Not easy.

And if you are wondering, this happened despite having a water proof cover on the seat. He removed it...

After all that cooking I'm still cooking. Batch of bread and two different kinds of cookies. Now looking at a recipe for a bread I've haven't tried making.  Bread is an interesting thing. Just a few ingredients, flour, water salt and yeast you can make hundreds of variations. And with the use of a polish or bigga ( different ways to start bread up to 24 hours in advance ) the flavors you can get expand dramatically. 99% of all my bread is always started with a polish. Ten oz of flour to ten oz of water and one half teaspoon of yeast. This ferments for 12 hours. The flavor it gives is very different from bread made without it. So much better. Not that there's anything wrong with good old home made bread. But if you can make it better then why not? :)

Sending a package back i got through the mail. I got a surprise in the mail yesterday. A gift from a business I've never done business with. Two small porcelain blue figurines. I'm guessing these were supposed to go to someone else. So I'll send it back today with a letter.

I'm making Ciabatta bread. This will be my second attempt at artisan bread. I've seen recipes for this that take everywhere from 20+ hours down to toss it on a slab and cook. The recipe I'm following will take 6 plus hours to make. Eighteen plus if you count the fermenting of the poolish. That's been bubbling up now for a few hours now. Still have three loaves in the freezer. Cut into a new loaf this morning. Never get tired of home made bread.

So I take it, middle of Missouri, on Jan the 5th, no grass grows?
Maybe like here, people there just love to be obnoxious? Here people do whatever they can to make very loud noise and also create a stink.  It's as if the clean country air is so clean it hurts their lungs and they have to make outside as bad as they are on the inside.  And for entrainment people here love to listen to engines revv and guns shoot as well as ......ahhhhh, anyway...!

If you go to the weather channel it's map shows it is snowing here. If I walk outside I can't see any. Supposed to get bad weather but so far in the clear. So like you Kobuk I'll stay inside and find things to do. Maybe enjoy some Jazz and make something good to eat.

And speaking of things to eat I tried two different no knead recipes for bread. Both take no work to do. Just mix and let sit for 24 hours. On the countertop. They both worked and here's the reason why. Kneading dough does not create the gluten. Moisture is what creates the gluten. Unfortunately moisture doesn't transfer well through flour. Kneading the dough spreads the moisture evenly. So all that work is done to get the flour wet. The idea of letting a portion of the dough ferment for some time is also sound. It's been done for hundreds of years. Because it adds flavor. With that in mind you all know I've been making bread for a few years now. Love staring each batch with a Poolish. Also known as a starter. Takes a portion of your beard's flour, yeast and water and allows it to ferment for up to 12 hours. A small portion. Not the entire amount. The end product of these no knead recipes was a yellowish tan dough. The cooked loaves both had a strong sharp unpleasant flavor. Neither tasted like a traditional white loaf of bread. Easy to figure out why. When I use a Poolish it's a portion of the entire recipe. When someone makes sourdough bread they add a small starter to the flour. Letting the entire amount of flour to ferment is like adding four table spoons of salt when the recipe calls for one teaspoon. I have not found a no knead recipe yet that tastes like normal home made bread. Both this technique and the one starting the dough in the icebox leaves an unusual flavor to the end product. So i'll be watching football and making a few loaves of bread today.

Just got done watching the Kansas City Chiefs win. Now my team is going to the super bowel! And my second attempt at Ciabatta bread was good. Not as open crumb as it should be. Because I'm using yeast out of a jar I can alter the amount used. Another way would be to allow the dough to sit longer so more yeast has a chance to develop. Another thing I could do is make a more European style bread flour. Combined all purpose flour with bread flour. To lower the gluten content. There's even the option of using all purpose instead of bread flour. I've done this with regular bread. Give a softer bread. But still gets a good even crumb and taste.  As the bread is I would be happy to get these results all the time. Definitely not a sandwich bread. Great for eating with a meal. Going to have chicken with a garlic sauce and this bread covered with melted mozzarella. Eat better and cheaper when you learn to cook at home.

and check out his cafe paintings. Because no two painters will ever paint the same. And I wont be using the same colors. And I don't have 20+ years of painting under my belt.

Well our wonderful state government has finally issued a stay at home order. So it looks like I'll be playing dodge ball with the cops. Coming home from work last night they were out in force. Have to ask how many of us got pulled over. Despite the fact they see us every night. Despite the fact that this is a small town. And despite the fact they know all about the work we do. They are still small town cops with nothing to do. We've all been issued cards more than a month ago. When Missouri should have giving the stay at home order. These cards say we are an essential business and must stay open. You know, expendable. Guess you can call them our 'get out of jail free' cards. We'll have to see how well they work with small town cops.

Bought myself a Playstation 4 and 'No man's sky' a few months ago. Not been able to update or log into playstation network. First because Mac decided my browser can't be updated. So I downloaded the latest version of Firefox. Works great. But because I'm on a mac I'm still not able to log in. Here are some of the directions I've gotten,

Make sure Firefox is running is safe mode.
Power down your playstaton.
Log out of playstation network on your computer.
Then log back in.
Repeat this once again.
Then log back out.
Power up your playstation and log in from there.

That didn't work. That's just one of the off the wall instructions I've gotten. And that's from the playstation site itself.

I've typed in the IP address and the rest into playstion. It tells me everything checks out but I still can't log in. Going to try Wi-Fi next.

Been playing the game with all kinds of glitches. Be nice to be able to play the entire game.

Getting reading to restart my painting hobby. Just spent a small fortune for 22 tubes of Golden Open Acrylics. These are supposed to give me up to an hour of blending time on the canvas. Up to a few days of reworkable time. And the colors I mix should last 3+ days ( some folks report up to seven days ) on a covered pallet. The good news is I'll be able to mix this in with the acrylic paints I already have. Extend their open time (the time it takes paint to dry ) as well. In a 1:1 ratio I'll net half the normal open time. Way more workable than the normal five to seven minutes. With regular acrylic paint I wasted more paint mixing on a pallet then in the painting. Looking forward to this.

I don't really understand what you mean by "look like dog claws". You could file them, shape and stick on a false nail out of finger clay and paint them I suppose. Hope you wouldn't want to do anything too intensive with your hands while you have them tho.

Pretty much this actually.  I was thinking very basic just paint black.  But i would want them 3D. So yeah you pretty much "nailed it".  But maybe not my greatest thought... I couldn't type well. It would be cool if we could just inject some DNA into the nail root and get claws in a few months.

Right now,  i am relaxing,  and wishing for better times.

 I'm sitting here pondering if my dog Wanda will ever become a good dog.  Bothers me since a lot is riding on it.

Watched a few Loopy de Loop  cartoons on DVD.  Boy, I kinda identify with him.  Sad and funny at same time. I try and do good things,  I try to put on my best face, " try to be kind,  considerate,  loyal,  charming "as loopy de Loop  would say. But I'm just miss understood.. no one loves me for me. :'(

Also right now I'm kind of lonely. I miss the contact with other furs and even family.  It's like they've disappeared. 
A friend I used to chat with used to be a neighbor.  I can't get her to respond.  Wondering if she is alive.  She was older and with issues.  Now Covid-19 is around us. I just don't know what has happened to her.  My sister won't respond to emails.  My brother is to busy to contact me. 

So I guess as I try to sleep, i am questioning a lot of things,  worrying, remembering etc. Stinks.
Is it because I told my family I'm a fur that they are distant? Idk.

Loc, I really hope for the best for you.  Sorry to hear you are so worried and need a test. 

Varg, it is my experience that moving and using a p.o. box is tricky.  Get your bank info set up to use p.o. box. Then once something from your bank is sent to p.o. box you can use it as proof that it's your "address". Then the phone company might be happier?
But take what I say with a grain of salt. I've been wrong before.

I'm wrong a lot these days

I'm watching the tv about the fires here.
Also listening to the police scanner so I can be ahead on the news.  My parents were driving though the area when evacuations went out.

I repaired my carpet, after the dog ate a hole in it.  I couldn't get an exact color match so it's sort of obvious what I did.
But oh well.

Looking forward to hearing good news from ya Loc. Really hoping things are getting back to normal.

I'm getting slowly but surely better. I walked briskly for half a mile today. Was tired out when I got back, but I'm slowly building up strength.
The HRT is levelling out my moods as well, I'm not as weepy as I was. I still have some bruising and my scar is very vivid, but the bruise is fading and the scar will, eventually. Or I can tattoo over it. I have started to move more naturally, and only really notice when I overdo it and pull something. I still ache more as the day goes on, but it is getting more bearable each week.

I won't know for absolutely sure until Jan next year, but it is looking like I'm out of the woods on this one.

For tonight, I'm reading The Way of Kings while... well, waiting for my HRT to dry xD

Working and finalizing plans for a home made free standing artist easel. Cost will be $80+ to build. A total of 64 pieces that will take up the better part of two 4x8 sheets of 3/4 inch plywood. Will be able to hold anything from a 3x3 to 46x70 canvas. Has a 40 x 16 work top. With a total work top of 40 x 25 3/8. With part of the work top behind the adjustable upright easel. The adjustable easel part is 12 1/2 wide 49 3/8 tall.  Two 40 x 16 shelves. Three spaces for drawers that I'll leave open for now. Each drawer can be approximately 3 + 11+ x 15 inches deep.  With a total height of 82 inches. Fully adjustable dual clamping top and bottom clamps. Bottom clamp will have a build in level. This is a non tilting easel meant to be used for oils and acrylics. Don't plan on ever going back to watercolors so tilting isn't needed.

It's big, clunky and will be over built. There is nothing on the market like it. More like a piece of furniture with an easel sticking out of the top.  :D

Update. After spending hours getting all the right measurements and fitting everything on two 4x8 sheets of plywood. All this work done in a drawing program I reformatted so I could work in 1.1 size. I walked into by bedroom and looked at a dresser I don't use. The drawers are full of stuff that could easily be put in boxes and stored in the basement. It's a nice 50 x 18 x 32 inches tall. So now all I need is one 4x8 3/4 plywood sheet. With only 32 things to cut out. The dresser has 6 drawers. More than I'll ever need for paints and things. I was wanting to move my paint stuff out of where it's at now. This is perfect! There is no fumes in artist grade acrylic paints. So sleeping in the same room with the paints wont be a problem. AWESOME!

Christmas decorating! Lights in the window, tree and first set of lights are on the tree. I use white chasers on the inside of the tree. Wrapping them in a way that they don't look like marquee lights. They glow from the inside of the tree. Both sets of 200 on a slightly different slow speed. I'll get the mini strands of multi color lights around the outside of the tree next. Going to stuff buffalo snow on the branches instead of using tinsel garland this year. Then it will take about ten hours to get all the glass and plastic on the tree. There's enough weight with the ornaments that I have to wire the tree to the wall behind it.  Not a single plain ornament on the tree. Most of them are shapes. Then either stenciled or indented. Been collecting antique ornaments for around forty years now. This many ornaments isn't something a sane person would do in one or two years. :)

Not going to go all out this year. I'll be celebrating Christmas alone this year. So I'm doing this for me.

Post by: cause the rat on January 02, 2021, 03:25:05 pm
I'll vote the same way Jade.

Finally sitting down and making replicas of old Japanese Christmas putz houses. Keeping them simple in design. After assembling the cardboard I'll paint them white. Then cover them with clear glitter. Paint that with a mix of acrylic paint ( cheap craft paint works just as well ) and mod podge. When that dries put a second light coat of mod podge on and sprinkle with the clear glitter again. No need to go out a try to find glitter in colors that you want. Especially when your trying to match the funky odd colors that were originally used. Like the really old ones I'll be putting cellophane in the windows and doorways. Each house's back wall is mostly open. Leaving just enough cardboard to act as a frame. These houses will be used as tree ornaments. The open backs will allow light to shine through.

Yes you can make these furry! Instead of using cellophane for the windows and doors use printed pictures of favorite anthro characters. Even make the front of the house as a single window. So when the light shines through you see Winne the Poo. Or Robin Hood. Or anyone else you want. Yes! Even Rudolph.

Still playing around with the Japanese putz houses I'm making. Want to keep these as cheap as possible. Recycled cardboard and things I already own. Don't have colored cellophane sheets. Going to use white crepe paper for the windows and doors instead. Another change I'm making. Going to combined the old Japanese putz houses with the old German snow putz houses look. Why not. They'll have the glitter for the house and roof color and be covered in thick snow. With larger than life icicles hanging down from every angle of the roof.

The snow is nothing more than toilet paper and slightly watered down PVA  ( Elmer's ) glue. Icicles are made from the same. All covered with white paint and glitter. Don't bother buying snow texture paint. it looks chunky and really nothing like snow. It's also an extra expense you don't really need. Painted toilet paper and glue looks better.

If your interested in putting figures around the houses try looking for mini cake decorations. Best part the size of the figure doesn't have to match the size of the house.

So I'll be either scrapping or, if I can, salvaging that one. Really just want the off beat and cheesy look of the old Japanese cardboard houses. Even the colors they used.

Taking down the Christmas tree. Counting every ornament. So far.

Hand made. 46

Plastic,  106

Glass 5+ inches. 44

The hand made and plastic numbers could go up as I take more off the tree. There is still hundreds to go.

I get an email today telling my my latest Amazon order will arrive sometime between Feb 4 and April 4. Today is Jan 13. So my white paint is still up to two months away? Nope. Plan two. I'll go buy a quart of flat water based house paint. I will not be stopped!  :D

Found some white hose paint in my garage so I don't have to wait till the paint gets here. It's house paint. I'm making cardboard houses. Works for me. :D Also still taking down the Christmas tree. It's going slowly because I don't have to be in any hurry to do it. The total ornament count so far is 305. And the tree is still loaded. Most of the ornaments left go in their own boxes.

The toaster came in. That's the good news. It's got a removable glass window that needs to be in the right spot for the toaster to work. Tried getting this in the right spot now for 20+ times. I'm going to have to call costumer service to find out how to put this in. When I force things I bend tools. These parts are plastic and glass. If I force things I'm afraid this toaster will end up in pieces.

Kind of a lazy day. Watched a bit of playoff football. The playoff games are always better than the Super Bowl. After wrapping up all the ornaments already off the tree I took off more. Right now I'm standing at 438 ornaments. Will I surpass 500? Easily.
Title: Re: What Are You Up To?
Post by: cause the rat on January 17, 2021, 03:24:05 pm
Took my last ornament off the tree. Tallied up the count. 497!??? NOOOO I'm three ornaments short. I had  18 plastic icicles on but didn't count them. There was so much on the tree you couldn't see them. Even with the sun coming through the window. If I cheat and count the tree topper, Buffalo snow and plastic icicles each as one I would then have 500. But winning by cheating isn't fun for me. I will meet and exceed this number next year! I missed it by three ornaments.

497 ornaments. Not a single plain one color ball on the tree. Now you know why the tree is wired to the wall behind it. That's a lot of glass.

It'll take about $400 of windshield wiper goodness to get it all back to working again. Three parts went bad.

Spent some time watching cheese making videos. I'm a big fan of Italian and other white cheeses. So I watched one maker make different white cheeses. I did not know this. But cheese is a lot like bread. With bread you can use water, salt, flour and yeast and get totally different flavors and styles of bread. Buy using the same ingredients. With slightly different measurements, temperatures and times you get different cheese. If I were to make any of them it would have to be the Mozzarella and his Grana Padano. or as he had to call it, his 'cease and desist' cheese. If you follow the link below you can find both the video of him getting the cease and desist email and then getting an apology email. Plus a lot of well done cheese making videos.

When it rains in pores. Well, not all the time. But this time it's a bit stormy. Last Monday my break fluid light comes on as soon as I pull into works parking lot. So I got some fluid and filled it back up. Today, wile pulling into my driveway, the light comes back on. Checked it and it's at the same low level it was last Monday. So I just got my windshield wipers fixed. Drove the car home to find now my breaks are leaking fluid. Car goes back into the shop tomorrow. Good thing i took the week off.  But not the vacation I was hoping fore.

Hi Cause, do you know what wheel is leaking fluid?  Auto parts stores may have the whole caliper for an ok price, and replacing it is easy-ish.  Purging air out of line is harder than the replacement work.  Well at least for me it was this way.

Thanks for the heads up and confidence in my mechanic abilities Jade. But I'm far from any kind of mechanic. I'm the reason why there are auto shops. And I'm more than happy there's people I can go to. From past experience it's cheaper for me to drop a car off than it is for me to do any real kind of work on it. I've stripped, bent and cracked things in the past. The reason I was able to fix the wipers before is because it's an easy fix. With not much more skill than changing the wiper blades. I know the breaks could just be a loos fitting. All the way up to a line that needs to be replaced. Rather have someone who knows what they're doing than make it worst myself. Years ago a friend came out and change all my break shoes. The only thing I was able to help with was breaking the bolts and nuts loose. Muscles I have in abundance. My mechanical abilities are just above bending a screw driver. I have tools. Because other people bought them for me.  :D

I know I should be painting. But something else has caught my eye. Italian cartapesta. It's the art of bending home made paper to look like fabric. They simply call it paper mache. But it's different in it's application.  To get really good results you have to make your own paper. The paper has to be thick. Without a grain. All modern paper can be torn straight in one direction. News paper and junk mail are way to thin. And even if you pasted sheets together in different directions you sill have to deal with the grain.

Right now I'm experimenting. Trying to find a good ratio of pulp per square inch. Plus I'm adding old blue jean material cut into 1/4 by 1/4 squares. These are blended to a pulp along with the paper. This will help add strength and bulk to the finished product.

Right now I have two experiments being pressed under a full five gallon bucked of water. Each with the same amount of pulp per square inch. With different amounts of blue jean material.

If you do a search make sure you type in Italian cartapesta. If you don't Google will translate cartapesta into paper mache.

Finally setting up my new PC (https://forums.furtopia.org/index.php?topic=46455.msg1073772#msg1073772) after having procrastinated for almost a month because I got highly annoyed at the state in which it arrived and temporarily lost the will to deal with it any more. (It turns out they do secretly judge absurd hardware choices, and express their judgement by only properly installing half of it. >:()

(Also, having very reluctantly upgraded to Windows 10 straight from 7 (the last half-decent version of Windows), I am almost entirely unprepared for its level of dark UI patterns. "You must create a Microsoft account or play Where's Wally to find the button to opt out." "No thanks." "Okay, I'll remind you 3 seconds later."

Getting back into painting. Sort of. I chose acrylics because I can't use the chemicals associated with oil paints. But ran into problems. Regular acrylics dry really fast. So fast trying to properly mix colors can leave me with little to no time to paint. End up with blobs of plastic. So I got the 'open' acrylics. I have a lot of time now to mix colors. But now I'm left with a paint that can't be applied thick. Can only be a 1/16 (2 mm) thick or the paint wont dry properly.  So I can't paint the way I really want to. This is my solution. I'm using my regular acrylics to practice the style of painting I want to do. I'll be using the open acrylics to practice color mixing and value studies. I'll be using both to practice brush control and drawing.  So I'll have paintings with overly bright glaring colors but with the effects that can only be achieved by using thick brush strokes. Then I'll have paintings with proper colors but without the look I want to achieve. Going to use all these paints up before I try something else. Water mixable oils. Had I known about these I would have never tried water color or acrylics. I have a small fortune invested in quality acrylic paints. Not going to let thees waste away. The good news is I can use the same brushes for acrylic and water mixable oils. Unlike when I went form water color to acrylic. Had to buy all new brushes. The down side is I still wont be able to use natural hair bristle brushes. They swell up and get wonky if dipped in water. I'll have to buy quality synthetic brushes and modify them to mimic the wear and tare that happens to hog hair brushes.

A friend from work has decided to start his very first D&D game. For now his is still learning the game. Setting up his world and maps. I've been reading and watching vids on race, character and class development. Going to wait to find out what kind of games the DM is going to set up before I decide on a skill set. He's got a group together that wants to play. Out of all of them I'm the only one with experience. Three of us have already decided on characters. One is going to be a 'smelly hippy' who wears nothing but a sumo wrestler's Mawashi. I'm playing a rogue with a gambling problem. And probably the best character of all, one guy's going to play a 12 year old boy. Imagine playing a character who's completely open to learning skills from the group. As an experienced gamer having group members with flaws makes the game so much more fun. In the world of comics Dead Pool is so much more interesting than Super Man.

Seems like everyone decided to do something at the same time out side my house. Yesterday a large crew was putting in fiber optic lines. One of their cats broke down. Blew a hydraulic line. So they had to leave it and a few other large pieces of equipment in place to block a deep hole. Moved my car to a neighbor's driveway to give them more room to work on the cat. Today the crew ended up having to haul the cat away to fix it.  This morning the construction crew was supposed to be working on my house. Guess with all this equipment in my front yard and a bit of rain we're getting they decided to wait.

So right now I'm sitting around waiting for something to happen.

Still reading on how to play Dnd. And trying to put a character together. Kinda got stuck playing something I really didn't want to. A barbarian. So I plan on playing this guy as off the base as possible. Not going to be a big brooding hulk with the attention span of a rock.  Would like to be more than just a tank in the game. Plan on being a problem gambler who's really bad with his own money. Afraid of magic and any water that comes above my chest. And a lover of fine fashion who's clueless of the difference between men and women's hats. I'll work with the DM to see if I can get a chance to go into a rage if someone mocks or damages my hat.

Also need to talk to the DM to see if I can reduce my gambling to one roll. This will keep my habit from interfering with game play. And instantly tell how much I lost or gained to what I just got paid.

Talked to the DM who's setting up the DnD game. He really likes the ideas I have for this barbarian. Making my barbarian hard to hide because he honors his family and village traditions by wearing bright clothing. I'm going to take a character I didn't want to play and turn him into a happy go lucky problem child.

Decided to go through all my furry youtube links. Got quite a few. So I had to count them. 202. And that's after I deleted a few. :)  Went through them link by link. There was a number of furry youtube channels that had really good content. These channels had group skits or 'plays' that took a lot of skill and imagination to do. Most of these channels no longer exist. Others haven't put out content in years. The good news is there are a handful that stopped putting out content a few years ago that have started back up again. And I'm sure once all this is settled down the channels that relied heavily on convention content will be back up and running. I haven't looked for new channels lately. Maybe that's something I can do today.

Just got back from visiting my mom and brother. Haven't seen either for a good year and a half. Everyone's still the same. Spent most of my time there staring at the TV set. But that's all they do. All in all a good day. Did take them out to the Out Back to eat. Felt really good to sit somewhere with other people. Told them as I was leaving we'll have to get together sometime before another year and a half.  :)

Awesome Kobuk! Watched that as well.

With a three day weekend ahead I'm already making plans. Now that I'm vaxed and some local restaurants are open I plan on choosing one a week to visit. There's a restaurant on main street that I'm going to sit down and enjoy a margarita pizza and a glass of craft soda.

Neighbor kid drove an ATV through my front yard as I was dragging my lawnmower around the corner. Later moved my good trail cam to the front yard in case he returns. Moments later, he runs out of gas and has to borrow some from a relative. Swapped out the good camera for a dud/decoy. Captured an image of the ATV in the street. Posted it to YouTube with a "complimentary" message. Will take it down tomorrow though.

Having fun with YouTube. Right now I going through and clicking "Not Interested. Don't recommend channel." on every channel that I don't subscribe to. I have close to thirty channels I follow. Multiple subjects. Everything from science to No Man's Sky. Once i get it down to where YouTube only shows these channels I'll click 'Not interested. Do not recommend channel"on all of them. Just to see what happens. Been doing this for a few months now. YouTube continues to show videos of things I have no interest in. I'm guessing YouTube algorithms sees 'how T cells effect the auto immune system' and 'color theory'. Put these two together and comes up with basket ball.

Update. Yes! Now I'm getting random channels. I've said no to the entire first batch. Once they show me something I'm actually interested in I'll keep it.

Finished making an 8 port electronically variable RF attenuation circuit.  It is made on Rogers-Duroid TMM 10 (ceramic circuit board material).  Oh and by the way , no, you can not easily drill through this ceramic!!!
It is part of a much larger project, sadly not much to do with furry.
It is for a pseudo Doppler radio direction finder circuit.  People call this Fox Hunting, aka find the hidden RF transmitter (the Fox), and you can be the hound (I am a working dog!).  So maybe in some tiny way, this is slightly furry-ish?  I was going to call it the Heidi Hound 1 (after my best dog pal Heidi).

It is smaller than the Beastars Manga Volumes

Close up of Surface Mount Soldering.. not my best, but not bad.  Made in one day, soldering was done at 1am.  No I can not see these parts when soldering, I do it by feel at times.  I USED to be able to see everything.
(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51294515786_7c624247a6_z.jpg)

This was all drawn, etched, drilled and soldered by hand, all my own design as well.  It is almost a piece of art. And yes those swept bends are indeed constant 50Ohms impedance! (nerding out over here).  About 250 individual components here!  The PIN diodes cost over $100 for all 32 of them.  Sometimes I think I am insane.

This is the control and readout part... don't laugh too hard please!  All point to point wiring with through hole parts, a mixture of analog, digital, and weird esoteric parts I have collected since about 1997?  Oh boy....memory lane.  Those are Radio Shack perf boards 10 stacked with spacers.  This thing needs to get into a metal enclosure later.  Unfortunately, this circuit has developed a problem after this photo was taken.

(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51295541015_c85d6771b7_z.jpg)

And to finish it all off, a lot of RF cable and a huge 8 antenna array for the top of my vehicle!

Interesting. I just used Ublock Origin to nuke the recommendations from pages I visit. I don't see suggestions, i don't even get the multi-thumbnail thingie that pops up when videos end.

Jade, that's AMAZING! I wish I had your soldering and electric skills.

Kay, I don't mind some of the channels YouTube suggests. But they can go overboard quickly. I left a news channel that had Trumps last propaganda speech. Then next time I opened YouTube I had lots of right wing media and propaganda sites. The news channel itself wasn't right wing or propaganda based. I'm finding out that anything you do is a sham. They have continued to suggest some of the very same channels. Despite how many times I've said clicked on 'do not recommend'. Think I'm through with this experiment.

Building a stand up art easel with an 18 by 48 work surface and two small shelves. The frame is all cut and ready for assembly. All out of scrap wood. The table top is part of a failed hydroponic experiment from years ago. Legs and all the plywood is free wood from the trash at work. The easel part itself I made some time ago. Been leaning it against the wall to us it. For now it'll be clamped to the work top. I may have to disassemble part of it to attach it to the base.

Had to scrap my plans on using the dresser as a base for this. Found that When I stand and paint my body shifts around to much. I can sit at the easel I'm putting together now. The part that holds the work is tall enough I'll be able to stand and work at it as well.

Getting ready to go out and search stores for Caffeine Free Pepsi. My mom can't find it in stores where she lives, so I thought I'd hunt for it where I live. Supposedly, the rumor is that there is an aluminum shortage, so some soft drinks have been stopped being produced if the cans can't be made. My mom thinks that's bull and she believes the real reason is that Pepsi probably discontinued some flavors so that other new flavors could be made and introduced.

I am also trying to wind down after a lot of work today.  Lots of stress, and the caffeine I drank to get through the day is now making me rather sick.

Need to refill printer cartridges, so will do that later.
Wanda my dog has a little upset in her stomach (as always) so I am trying to quell that as well.

Christmas tree is decked. About 200 ornaments less than I'd normally put on it. It's funny, I don't miss them. Going light on the decking this year. Leaving most of the house as it. It's nice having folks over and they see my house. Not what usually looks like a Christmas resale shop.

Spent a few hours today trying to match an oil color without using white. Guess this needs a bit of explaining. The color I was matching is called 'Naples Yellow'. Most manufacturers sell a hue or mixed version of this color. All of them use titanium white in the mix. Real Naples yellow is lead based and highly toxic and carcinogenic. You can still buy the original color. As long as you don't mind paying $80+ for a small tube of paint that can either kill you or give you cancer. So why not use white to mix this color? White oil paints, whether it's titanium or lead based, are very bad to use when trying to lighten up a shadow or dark area. Even a small about will muddy or 'milk' the color. I came close today using 'Bismuth Yellow', 'Transparent Yellow Iron Oxide' and 'Mars Black'.

Trying to do work, not interested in this work.
I would rather re-live yesterday.

Took Wanda on a 3 hour long walk, she slowly settled down and started to obey a little.
It was her 2nd birthday, she ate a steak, walked and then we had pizza, no joke.
While I was waiting on the pizza slices, (they were behind) I drank 4 small sodas at the place and gave Wanda water 2 times.  We were dry.

So I am wishing I could do more of that stuff.  I lost weight, gained muscles, feel better, slept better, etc.  More at peace now too.
I hate how my job sucks all my time. 

Maybe I should find a way to do something else.

Spend the day on hold. Nothing more exciting than listening to muzak for hours on end. The only good news is none of the places I called used the same tunes. :)  First I'm trying to cancel hotel reservations. I no longer have the reg number. I have to have the reg number to use the online site. Contacted the hotel. They don't have me book and have no record of me even reserving a room. They told me to contact the fandom staff. They don't have anything to do with hotel reservations. Really not happy about the possibility of a $500+ bill for something I'm not going to be at. I've been to the emergency room. Not getting any bills. I got a full statement from my insurance. I know how much I owe and would like to get it paid. Called the hospital. They told me all my bills were sent electronically. So I go to the site. Nothing there. The only thing I saw told me to have billing numbers from a bill to get more information. You know, the bills I'm not getting because they are all on line. I've already decided how this is going to be handled. Tomorrow I'm going to call billing again. Explain the situation and tell them this. "Figure this out or I'm going to send a single check with the full amount. Then you guys can divide it up." This isn't the first time I've had problems with them. Someone accidentally changed a single letter in my name. The insurance wouldn't accept the new spelling. I had to contact them and tell them to look at their spelling and the photo of my driver's license. They've also had my address wrong. A few thousand miles wrong. Perhaps that's the poor guy who's getting all my bills. :)

After finally getting a decent tuner I'll be moving the bridges on the guitars I've made. Not that hard to do. There will be a few screw holes showing. I wont care and doubt anyone else will notice. The good news is once this is done I'll have a permanent measurement where the next guitar bridges will be placed. For both the guitar scales I use. 24 3/4 and 25 1/2. Each being the measurement from the nut on the guitar head to the bridge.

Went and saw "Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" movie today with a friend.
And then I began to think, How did Wanda Maximoff become the Scarlett Witch? What did I miss?
There must have been either a movie or an MCU series I missed that probably explained that.

What am I doing today?

Coming onto this forum that I haven't been on since 2008. At least that's going from my last post on here. This is such a time capsule for me.

I almost forgot this place existed, but luckily I remembered and by some miracle remembered my login eventually. It's been so long.

I can really tell I've grown since then. Still a furry, of course, but I'm a lot more mature now than I used to be, that's for sure.

I think we all can look back on our past, seeing that we were cringe and edgy at some point. Lol. Or maybe that's just me. I dunno.

Hi Shadow Fox,
Honestly that sounds kinda cool!  (Re-finding this place I mean)
I am a late comer here, and fandom in general.

Interesting that despite all the changes we experience as we age, some things stay the same.
Neat that you are still a fur.  I suspect that it is something that doesn't die off easy for most of us.
I have no intentions of "not being a fur" since it is part of me.

I am sure if  I was here as a kid, I would have been totally cringe.   :-[

Just got back home from watching the new "TOP GUN Maverick" movie with a friend. What a thrill! There are very few movies that I would give a 5-star rating too. This is one of them. A lot of Hollywood movie sequels don't end up as good as the original. This new movie is the exception. It's THAT good! Go see it. Why? Because we all have the need.......the need for speed.  8)

Finally posted in the art portion of this forum. Hope to continue at least once a week. Probably closer to once a month. On vacation this week. Was planing to go into St. Louis to get something. Figured out it was cheaper to get the stuff shipped than to buy the gas to get there. So the stuff is in the mail. Also went yardsaling over the week end. Spent $5.50 on me and $8.00 on stuff to bring to next year's charity auction at the local furcon.

Visited a local part today. Parks been there for a good 15 to 20 years. First time going. Nice place. Lots of trees, a lake, two pavilions, public bathrooms and plenty of places to sit. A hand full of people milling about. A good place to spend about an hour or so before I go to work. Want to try my hand at plein air painting. Got a tri pod camera stand and scrap wood to throw together a travel easel. Also will make something to hold a painting panel onto the tri-pod. And something to carry the wet panel home in.

Another woodworking project. Nothing like getting complex angles wrong and having to re do parts. Working on something that hooks onto two legs of a tripod. Got the distance and the angle of the legs within the hooks. But forgot about the outside angle of the tripod. Put a mockup together before committing to the final glue up. Glad I did. The platform was drastically sloping towards the tripod. One 70+ degree angle later and the platform will be level. Also need to find out why my chop saw's blade keeps coming loose. Kinda scary working with a saw that wants to wabble. Easy enough to tighten. Just don't want to have to re tighten it every time I go to use it.

The joys of woodworking. I spend time and am extra careful to get the palette portion of the box as square as possible. Just to put it in the pre made box that's out of square. Easy fix. I shaved off less that a 1/16  of an inch off of two corners. Now I need to straighten out the palette with moisture and heat. Quickly seal it to make sure it stays straight. This piece of wood will get 12 coats of linseed oil to make it supper smooth. And oil paint resistant.

The box I'm using was an "Artist Kit" that had two different kinds of paint in tubes, color pencils and pastels. Like the one in the link. Was a gift years ago that I never used. Really cheap art tools I would not recommend. Entire set for the cost of two tubes of good paint.

Learning more about applying boil linseed oil to wood. I took the first advice I came across. Ended up with a good but unfortunately soft finish. Now I know to let it cure for a week between coats. So it's going to take four months to get all twelve coats of oil on my palette board. It was going to be some time before I wanted to paint out in public. And even though it's possible to oil paint out doors in -0 temps I'm not that willing. I can always get a piece of glass for it till the palette is ready. Not my first choice. Glass is, well, glass. Even tempered it can still break. One unplanned for gust of wind could knock the tripod over. End up with a mess to clean up.

Re making a cookie recipe. Want to turn a peanut butter cookie into something that tastes more like the old 'Marry Jane' brand Halloween peanut butter kisses candy. Be adding maple syrup instead of brown sugar. You can replace brown sugar in any recipe by adding one table spoon of black strap molasses to one cup of sugar of light brown. Two for dark. Buying brown sugar is a waste of money.

Still making Christmas. Not going to put out my large Santa collection. Kinda going smaller this year. Decided to put up a small part of my village collection. Kept getting bigger. Ended up being almost 14 ft long by about 3 foot deep. So much for smaller. :) Actually this takes up the room I would have used for most of the Santa stuff. I use dimmer switches to turn down the lights. These ceramic villages look a lot better when the buildings themselves aren't glowing. Still have most of the main tree to get together. Plus the feather tree. I'll get it all up. Enjoy it with friends and family for a few days. Then take it all back down again till next year.

My house is a bit over 1100 square feet. Living room takes up about a third of it. It's huge. The back wall is about 17 foot long. This includes a four food doorway that goes to the back half of the house.

Cleaning up after Christmas. I was able to give all the cookies away. And most of the the breads and cake.  Stuck with one half of a fruit loaf and one loaf of ciabatta bread. We all agreed on not exchanging gifts. Still ended up with three cans of popcorn. Pot calling the kettle back here. I bought everyone cans of popcorn too.  :) Didn't spend the day watching an endless loop of "A Christmas Story".  We watched football instead. That was nice. I'll keep everything up for a bit longer. Then it's time to pack it all away. Put the house back in order. All in all it was a good time.

recovering from eating leftovers from my own cooking.  Took the food to parents place.  They said it was the first time ANYONE came to their house with food for the holidays. 
I guess come to think of it, they are the ones who normally invite people and they cook for everyone. 
Well I just hope they are not sick like I am, and even the dog is. 

Last thanksgiving we did a meal that was traditionally "Ukrainian" because my dad's ancestors are from that region and he grew up eating that food for thanksgiving or thereabouts.
So this time I did our families traditional thanksgiving for christmas.  Initially it was just for me but I quickly realized I could never eat it all, so I surprised parents with it.
We ate, played board games, and I walked dog a few times that day.  We watched the Denver Broncos suck total ... foot.  Man they stunk!

Family left me a cheese sampler. Not a big cheese eater. It has to be on or in something. So I cut it all up and baked it in bread. Had trouble with the dough not wanting to rise. So I spread it out and added a teaspoon more yeast. Then restarted the rising time. Got it in the oven and ended up having to bake it 15 minutes longer. First time I pulled the loaves out the internal temp was only 145. Put em back in for about 12 minutes more. Internal temps reached 185. Good and done. The bread has a nice soft cheese flavor. I can't have a lot of bread but I can snack. So I'll be freezing these loaves in sections. Cutting them up and using them to snack on between meals. Way healthier than the crackers I have been eating.

For all the years I've been making home made bread there's still more to learn. First, yes I know I'm not supposed to eat bread. But I found a way around that. I can 'exchange' it for the pasta in some of my meals. And i can cut it up small and use ti to snack on instead of crackers. I learned a different way of using a bread stone. Put it above the rack your going to cook on. This creates a smaller space in the oven. This is the second time I've tried it. Works!  Helps to create a crustier top but still allows time for a good rise.

Jade  :D Faux fur actually came up in a few of the on line stores I was searching threw. People use it to make throws and pillows. Kinda jokingly thought about it. However it would be a bit unpractical. First would be the weight on a curtain rod that's over eight feet long. Then the amount of light it would block when closed. Faux fur with a bead curtain. Give my living room a real 1960's hippy look.  :D Hope you get to feeling better soon.

This simple plumbing project has become a nightmare. Searched for hours on line. I have even been to a manufacturer's web site. Driven for miles. No one makes the part I need. Good o'l 1950's plumbing. If I reuse all the stuff my father-in-law put in I'll have the same problems. If I use the stuff I bought and go from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 back down to 1 1/4 I'll have a potential clogging area at the reduction point. Yes there are rubber couplings with hose clamps at each end. However there is a difference in internal diameters between what's meant for thin and thick walled PVC pipe. Case in point. I bought a rubber coupling for 1 1/4 to 1 1/4. It's actual inside diameter is 1 5/8. That's 3/8's of an inch wider than the outside diameter of the 1 1/4 inch pipes. The problem is now do I continue with this search. Save myself a vacation day and a $$$ plumber call. Or do I take a V day and pay someone who hopefully will have a part that works. So I don't have to take a second V day and end up with a larger bill. Ya! 1950's plumbing.

And I've learned what paint colors were used by some of my favorite 1800's painters. Knowing this I'm able to both see and mix the colors used in paintings by Albert Bierstadt ,Thomas Cole and many others. I'll end up using modern day equivalents. Not quite the same colors. I can get the exact colors. Not really worth the $80+ a tube filled with toxins strong enough to kill me. In art the exact color is irrelevant. Value, or how light or dark a color is, is what makes art work. And another important trick of visual art. A blue gray by itself looks gray. Put it in the right spot on a painting and it will look blue.

PRAISING YOU TUB AND ALL THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE WHO POST HOW TO VIDEOS! The solution to my problem has been right in front of me this whole time. Almost every part I bought came with two sizes of washers. One that fit and one that didn't. The one that didn't fit the 1 1/2 pipe fits the 1 1/4 pipe. It's called a 'reducer washer'. It's meant to go between both sizes. I will still end up with a possible clogging point. Because no one makes a 45 degree angle 1 1/4 under sink drain pipe. The connection between the 1 1/2 45 degree pipe and a 1 1/4 pipe will be that spot. But it will still be better than what I had. Yes they make those bendy pipes. I need something that will be in a horizontal position.

Local punks uprooted a nearby stop sign and set it in the woods. The placement of the sign may have been an obstacle for the go-kart seen tooling about the area. There is a beaten path through the nearby woodlot from all of the ATV traffic. Locals tended to ignore the stop sign, and I could've been run down twice.

I contacted the county road commission regarding the pulled stop sign yesterday.

Chilling out in my tent.
Got my fan on me, lights, a pot of mac and cheese and watching YouTube on my phone.

Not the best m.a.c I've ever had i must say but i put it down to a few factors.
1: It could have used a little more water for the milk and cheese powders.
2: It could have used a bit of butter.
3: Could have used a slice of American cheese to make it cheesier.

I was also using great value brand mac and cheese. That's not exactly the pinnacle of greatness.

Still though, I'm okay with the results.

Made a thing.
It's been done before. Like most of what I do.

It's able to remote control things over radio.  Basic but very dependable.  Good for turning on or off objects, or even kicking off a script on computer etc. 

Also could be used 2 way.  Meaning the thing talks back to me.  I could use it to tell me status of vehicle when it is parked at a trail head and I'm away.  Basically either it could periodically send me a code meaning good or bad.  Or I could ask it for a response. Either way I mad a dependable low bandwidth 2 way data link for cheap.

May use it to turn on Christmas lights next time,  from across the town. 
No internet needed. 

I am a ham radio operator so I can legally do this within the bounds of said hobby.  So far I used 0.5 watt of power, so... nothing really.  But this is for testing and not much is needed to prove the concept and I don't want it to go far...yet!




I also washed the garage door outside.  Yes I did that.
What a difference,  it's white as fresh snow now!

Actually there's little chance of it caching fire. The total amount of wattage used means the radiant heat will be to low. At it's highest the radiated heat will be far less than the 200 F+ flash point.

Keeping track of the experiment. The UV radiation is having an adverse effect on aluminum. This was not expected as I'm using the metal as a shield. Directly under the experiment the aluminum is melting away in one spot. I've moved the energy source. However the spot continues to melt. The heat produced by the source is so low it's not heating the above enclosure. Not even warm to the touch. The quality of the UV wavelength is 395 out of a possible 400. We're talking tanning strong. So it would appear it's the UV radiation that's causing the melting. The melting is also not hot. This does not have any effect on the experiment. There is glass between it and the aluminum.  I'll replace the aluminum and keep going.

Going to look this up when I have the time.
Title: Re: What Are You Up To?
Post by: Jade Sinapu on August 03, 2023, 12:32:56 am
Your experiment is strange Cause.
If you mean you are using 390 to 400 nm UV light,  it will pass through normal glass I think.  However shorter wavelengths get blocked by glass.
Aluminum maybe is undergoing photoelectric effect whereby electrons become freed to make a current because the light have them enough energy to move about.  But I wonder if the UV is reacting with oxygen in air to make weak ozone which eats aluminum making oxides?
Sounds interesting.

I'm up to being cold feet about going to denfur 2023... probably will go but my involvement will be small and I might go home early and this will be last con.  I could use encouragement.  I wanted to speak to convention chat group on telegram and say just that.  Hey I could use encouragement to go.  But... sounded lame.

Title: Re: What Are You Up To?
Post by: cause the rat on August 03, 2023, 04:34:22 am
Thanks Jade. The aluminum is under a flat piece of glass. No air flow. And it's only happening in one spot. There is also no signs of damage to any other parts of the shielding. I did search for answers. Apparently UV will degrade aluminum. But it's not supposed to melt it. Also found out that UV ADDS molecular weight to some mettle types.  So the idea that an energy can become matter does happen. Honestly this all is fun. But has nothing to do with what I'm trying to accomplish. i am accomplishing what I was hoping to. Learning all this new stuff adds to the fun.

Post by: cause the rat on August 04, 2023, 03:37:30 am
Found a good article on UV radiation and oxidation. I may have not gotten all the water off the bottom of the glass before starting the experiment. UV induced oxidation may also explain why the substance I'm working with is oxidizing faster than it should. For me that is a REALLY good thing.. Someone found a way to go from 4 months down to 41 days. If I can get the same results in, a this rate, two weeks that's even better. The experiment has been running for 9 days now. It'd doubled in viscosity. If it's stable, doesn't break back down into a runny liquid, It will be perfect. Once it reaches the target viscosity I'll have to compare it to the manufactured product.

First part of the experiment is completed. It's stability and usability is what's next. If this works I just turned $9 of material in to $35 in nine days. With a loss of 0.75 of an ounce in the process. this part of the experiment will take several days. Keeping my hopes up.

Now i need to learn to use my cell phone. Trying to find a 'cell phones for dummies' site. So I can learn without having to do more searches.  I did learn there is a speech to text feature so non more struggling with that keyboard.

Experiment is going well. Viscosity has held up. No signs of running or separation. Next is a side by side time test to compare it with the product I'm trying to make.

Checked my computer's performance. I'm down to four out of seven cores in my processor. Plus a ten year old operating system that's a bit out of date. Getting things done on my cel is like typing with a hammer. Not working out for me. I'm using Google mic. It works for everything except my passwords. Most are 20+ characters and need to be change often. Need a new box. Decided to stay with mac. There are things you can do on a PC you still can't on a mac. But after 30+ years if I really haven't needed them then it's not a real problem. Yes. Doing scale modeling on a mac is a joke. Hopefully that's something they've fixed in the last ten years. Also the newer mac keyboard doesn't have a 5 Key. Something i can't do without. I did learn there are keyboards that will run on Mac that do have what I need. The real problem. The latest Macs may not be coming out till early 24.  I can get the 2021 models. Or wait six months. May end up getting a cheap PC lap top just to check my email. The computer working on now isn't having performance issues. That's saying something with a processor that's half dead. So hopefully this box will last for another 6+ months.
Title: Re: What Are You Up To?
Post by: cause the rat on August 13, 2023, 06:19:11 pm
Experiment update. First experiment was to compare viscosity. Something else was learned. Both mine and the manufactured oils created a sticky surface on the oil paint. Reason for this is the way oil paint oxidizes. Two quickly and the underling paint stays wet. Leaving the surface sticky. This happens a lot with water soluble oil paints. Both the oil I made and the manufactured are not meant to be used by themselves. But have to be mix with treated linseed oil. Normally at a 3 or 4 to one ratio of refined linseed oil to thickened.

Timed experiment day two. The oil I made is drying the paint faster than the manufactured. With two of the five slow drying oil paints partially dry after 24 hours. This is a strait one to one ration of paint and thickened oil. After this test I'll have to make a mix of my treated oil to match the four to one mix of the manufactured oil I currently use. What I'm hoping for is my oil dries at or faster than the manufactured oil without leaving a sticky film.

I'm also playing No Man's Sky and trying not to think about my computer problem. Rained so I can't mow the lawn. Have to fix my living room ceiling fan. One of the blades have come loose from the motor housing.

Got a way to check my email. Good. Hopefully this will continue to work,

Experiment. Tacky surface on the first experiment has dried up. Both at the same time. With a third pigment drying completely without becoming tacky. This means three of the five pigments completely dried within 48 hours. Two left are notorious for being very slow to dry. The four to one mix experiment as started. This will take longer to dry. Because of the additional linseed oil. So far my creation is exceeding the brand's performance.
Title: Re: What Are You Up To?
Post by: cause the rat on August 16, 2023, 03:06:24 pm
Experiment. Looks like the desired outcome is about 12 hours faster with the stuff i made.  However using my product  straight and at the four to one mix accelerates the oxidation at the same rate. I may have over done it. This is good if your doing alla prima . Not so good if your doing traditional oil painting methods. One of the best properties about oil paint is it's workability. It's actually easier to use than acrylics or watercolor.

This means there are two more experiments left before I call this stuff ready. First is finding a ratio that matches the traditional stuff. Second is it's shelf life. I'll put equal small amounts of both in sealed containers. See how long they take to turn into goop. Hopefully my stuff will last as long or outlast the traditionally made stuff.

I know I keep talking about these experiments. But I have to share this. Something just happened that has me doing a happy dance. Even at my age. I had what i thought was a failed experiment. It didn't reach the same viscosity level as the first. However the molecular clarity was well improved. So I'm in the middle of doing the same usability experiments and ended up with new information. It's the clarity and NOT the viscosity that improves the performance of the product. Being a HUGE benefit to the end product. The heavier the viscosity the shorter the usability time.  I promise to tell all after I do the patent thing. It sounds more exciting than it really is.

Finally getting LED c7 lights for the Christmas tree. These are the old five color, red, green, blue, white and orange light bulbs. Was going to go with one brand that has complete sets. WAY to expensive. Almost 70$ for a 25 socket set. So I got bulbs off of Amazon. All the colors match almost perfectly with the old ceramic coated glass bulbs. Except for the white. I ended up coating them with a light brownish yellow to dull them down. Now you can't tell the difference. Had to buy empty light strands. All in all it was still expensive. Came to about $28 a lighted strand. Still $40 cheaper a strand than what I was looking at. Also bought extra colors. Back in the day they didn't have standardised colors. So I got a five pack of each, pink, yellow and purple to add variety. I think it was in the early 70s when the idea of just red, blue, green, orange ( gold ) and white ( silver ) became the standard colors for both ornaments and lights. I remember seeing mini lights strands for the first time back then as well. They were VERY expensive and very prone to breaking. One light goes out and the entire strand goes. As far as electric goes 6 strands of incandescent would run 1050 watts. The LED will run at 90. In my old house that means I'll be able to have both the tree AND the TV on at the same time.  :D

But i will have to make all the sides. bread and pies, Pies are easy, they come in a box. :) Add this to all the cookies, home made breads and a hand full of other things I want to make ( stollen, cinnamon rolls, a cake or two and the like )  I'll be hall'en a few crates of food.

Still baking Christmas. No candied peel to be found. So I have to make it. It takes hours. Then I have to let it sit for a good 24 hours to let it set up. And after that it gets soaked in dark rum with other fruits for another 8 to 12 hours. This is one thing I'll have to start this week end and finish next. That's another thing I had to buy. Rum. Guess i'll find out how many years of shelf life this stuff has. I have a bottle of VO that's still in it's original box. Given to me 28 years ago.  So for the rest of today I'll be doing breads. Then more cookies, or small cakes. Need to figure out timing so I can have breads going in and out of the oven. Actually have a bread cook book that has time tables for bakeries. Making it easier to do breads that rise and bake at different times. Also have to make my own marzipan. Not something your going to find in this small town. Might make an almond torte with the remaining almond flour. Yes I love to cook. this is the only tie of year I can cook this stuff cuz I can't eat it. Still smack when I can....:)

And not from oats. .
I hope to get to store to buy clothes,  many I have are getting tattered.
But whenever I get there the pants size I wear are never there.  And I hate buying clothes online because I didn't try them on first.  It can take me a whole day to buy clothes and I hate that.

Stocking my pantry full of groceries that came in last night. A whole lot of mac n cheese, cream of chicken soup, rice, canned chicken, spaghettios, Gatorade powder and water.
Fully stocked for the month and probably a bit into the next month too :D

Well... turned neighbor in for animal neglect.  They left 2 dogs outside for almost 7 hours in 15F weather,  with strong wind.  No dog house.  No dog door
 No one home
No food. No water.  Nothing. It's been cloudy here no sun to warm them. Then at night no clouds,  meaning Temps will drop more. 
Someone finally came and put dogs in.  After I called.
I took photos every hour of dogs and my thermometer.  They were shivering and balled up against the fence.  .
This is not the first time this has happened.  This is just the first time I've called.  Previously someone else called.  These dogs need to go to somewhere else.

What kind of dogs were they? Cause some dogs are literally made for cold weather. If they were something like a husky or a malamute or a boz or something then I'd say you jumped the gun.

HI Kay,
They are under-fed Rottweilers.
Shivering.

My German Shepard dog can tolerate 15F no problem.  When she gets to -10F her paws freeze within <15 min.  Walks at that temp need boots for her. Which we use.  Perhaps if she was in Alaska she would be good at lower temperature.  Meaning dogs do acclimate some.

I've had -10F here last winter thus how I know that about my dog.   At those Temps my neighbors rotties did poorly.

Perhaps since I've also seen the male rottie dog drugged in the past  coupled with the fact these people want to make money on puppies,  swayed my mind to call. Unfortunately I have Perhaps developed a bad image of these people.   My other neighbors have called 2 times for both extreme heat and cold on these owners.

I did not do this easily.  I fear retaliation from them,  and worry about trouble.  I waited till I couldn't bear it any more.  I even called others to get "calibrated" before calling on them.

In the end,  I think my call went unheard.  It was left on the after hours animal wellfare office. It was Christmas after all.
I think my loud yelling caused someone to come out of a drug stupor and remember they left dogs outside.

These people are heavy drinkers and use drugs as well.
They are not model citizens.
As you can tell I take a very dim view on such things.
I sometimes wonder if perhaps i am the last person left with some integrity in this part of town... too much of this sort of thing here.


What am I up to?
Browsing furry art sites.
I still love furry.  There are things that drew me in.  They still do.
Art that makes me think of fantastical settings,  powerful creatures.  Beautiful girls that make me take notice.  Ideas of transforming,  like a werewolf. 
No matter how crappy furry is at times,  there are things that draw me back.  Even a well drawn cute male character, caught my eye.  And I'm not even gay or bi.

Ah i see. Then in that casevi would say the call was justified and hope something happens to get those dogs out of there.

As for my current doings, I'm holed up in my trailer with my dogs trying to stay warm. It's a pretty chilly, cloudy day today.

Awesome Jade. Hope something good comes out of this.

Been a real screwed up week. Doing the family Christmas this weekend, tomorrow. Spent Christmas day in the hospital with family. Decided to try to cook some more. Things not turning out. Need a new range. Be my Christmas gift to myself this year. Like to have one with a convection fan. Things cook slightly faster and the browning is awesome.

On the up side I learned something this week that I've been researching for over 10 years now. And it was in English! I didn't have to use Google translate. If you have ever tried 'translate' you know some languages do not translate well into English. Most of the words translate but in an order that doesn't make much sense. Some words don't translate at all. I've spent YEARS using the caption function on videos. Hand typing the words. Or going through web sites copying and pasting then into google translate. Nobody and I mean Nobody said a word about the materials used. Until one video. And these folks sung like canaries.  I have finally learned ALL the materials and techniques to Italian Cartapesta. Or poor mans' marble. They call it paper mache. But there is no paper in it. It's impossible to get wood based paper to work.

Surviving the cold. It's -5 with a healthy wind. Electricity went out for a bit over an hour. House dropped in temp from 72 to about 65. Comfortable but I was getting worried. I have a kerosene heater. Really didn't want to set that smelly thing up. All good now. Hope everyone else is warm and safe. Haven't had a winter like this in a wile.

-7F here.  Windy at 15mph.
House is at 66F. I'm ok.

Dog is very ill.  I've been getting up every hour or so to assist her out for potty break. My yard is like a Jackson pollock painting in various shades of ochre.

I've been doing this for 2 days.  No sleep.
Will have to take tomorrow off.  Can't do my job without being able to think. I miss the old days.  Hating life right now.

Warming up the house after loosing power for three days. Had to stay in hotels that were pet friendly, sneaking in a crested gecko in a critter keeper is easy in a non pet friendly place but not two dogs. Luckily it's warming up and Queso's terrarium is warm so he's happy. :)

Wound up burning through my time off to take care of sick dog.
She's only now recovering.  Some mysterious GI issue. 5 days of waking up each hour to help dog go potty. It messes with your head. Days run into one.  I finally shaved after 1 week ( I  was getting too furry?) And in the sink I thought I saw ants. It was shaving stubble. 
Wow.

Glad she's okay now.  She was close to being hospitalized for extended period etc.  Can we say second mortgage?
I am off this whole week.   

If my knees allowed,  I'd walk in park in fursuit as a lark, and swing and use the tiny meri-go-round.  But I fear my days are over. 

My job was very reluctant to let me use MY time off. 
This may just be the trigger to get me to bail on present employer.
Will see.

Getting my new computer set up. My old Apple has USB and other type ports in the back. My new box is all lightning. So now I have to get a USB to Lightning adapter. To plug my keyboard in. It'll be here Tuesday. For now I'll still be on the old box.
Mac as decided that everyone would think that having a wireless keyboard and mouse would be a great idea. Why? It's a keyboard and mouse connected to a desk top. Why would anyone need them to be wireless? How many times have you thought, "Sure be nice if I could take this keyboard into the bathroom with me."

Finally got home.  I have tomorrow off. 

So I'm resting.

Cause,  you forgot wireless peripherals also let you type and mouse from across the room even though you can not be sure of what was typed or clicked because the distance is so great.

Wireless is also a good way to leak info.  And be jammed out in difficult environments. Truth is,  wireless main selling point is supposedly no clutter from those pesky unruly wires.  People who think that way need to get a life.  If someone can't deal with a few cables they need therapy.    Oh and wireless needs batteries.  Take that eco freaks.  Your clean workstation with no wires and all wireless setup is worse for the environment than the wired one.

So as you can tell I love wires.

Plus work in a SCIF. No wireless allowed for all the reasons I mentioned.

Finally got my new Mac up and running. However it will be a few more days before I'll be able to surf the web with it.  I'll have to import all my bookmoarks from an external drive. Getting a USB hub, second keyboard and mouse.  So I'll be able to have both computers to use. Have to switch between the two boxes till then. Be downloading apps I use all the time on the new one. Tried Apple's spreadsheet program. Same wonky waste of space. Hoping to find a usable (for my multi genre music collection) music app. One that's NOT apple. Looking forward to seeing what's new in Logic Pro digital audio work station. As well as a few of their new programs. For now this box will help me keep in touch.

Getting ready to set up my internet browser on the new box. My out of date browser doesn't have an export feature for bookmarks. So I'm having to copy/paste each one at a time into a spread sheet. I have well over 500 bookmarks. Cooking, BBQ, Christmas, Halloween, Woodworking, Recording and making music, Making and modding guitars, Anime and Full movie sites, Writing, Science, History, Crafts, Oil painting, Guitar, Bass, Vocals and more. Like favorite online shopping sites. This will take hours. There's plenty I'm leaving behind. But for every one I don't keep there's 20 I do.
