Word, doggo. Preserve our way of life, holmes.

When I saw Turkey Cannon all I could think of was our Burning Man weapon, err, project: the Porkk Mortarr. A bit of panty hose stuffed with wet offal and tied to a folded cellophane parachute à la paratrooper toys of yore. We pack this in a "sabot" and drop it into a 40mm mortar tube. fire with compressed air or black powder, whatever!
Happy para-meatvasion, hippies!

Hey beepy!
"They're not dolls! They're action figures!"

They all are dolls. Our toys were dolls.
WE PLAYED WITH DOLLS, MAN!

(And sometimes Evel Knievel had tea with Stretch Armstrong, Strawberry Shortcake and green Army men on fire!)

Oops! the RC 166 debut was in 1966!

Bad dork! Bad!

So effin' sweet!!
It's like Nirvana with an address

Rojo, everybody..

More gear porn!!
Somebody needs to sneak into Honda Motorcycle's Heritage Hall and get some centerfold shots of their RC 166 - the 1968 6 cylinder 250!

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!

Trying to think of some funny coup de grace to add but .... uh....
Nyaaaah Nyah Nyaaaaaaah! you idiots.

Oooh, so bitchin'! That spray compressor looks like a high speed train ready to take flight.

I've got a streamliner, post-war Craftsman Circular Saw that looks like they mounted a Cadillac fender as the blade guard.
State of the art in its day, I couldn't imagine hefting the 20 lb beast all day on the jobsite, but damn, it's cool - who would have thought that a saw would cry out for its own Electra swept-wing hood ornament.

"MICRONAUTS?? grouchosuave, you are my new best friend. i rarely run into anyone who remembers them. "

Goddamn right! I had the space base with the little cars. Although due to my aforementioned predilection for firecrackers, I only have a few frankensteined ones left.

Man, no Planet of the Apes dolls left though - they were the neighbor kids' and they were big enough to shoot with the .22.

"i say FEH on "transformers" -- those johnny-come-latelys!"

Yeah, they were lame. (Voltron rules the hizzo, boyee!). Besides, by the time they were around, I had discovered the wonderfulnessitude of boobs and butts. Game over.

well,
#2 "These commercials meant that all the kids immediately knew *how* they were supposed to play"

Like those commercials or instructions or stories or the kind of doll meant anything anyway:

They all got strapped with a cellophane parachute and a lit firecracker eventually.

"What kind of place is this that the ruling class are apes? They're gonna operate on me and make me a SLAVE!!"

I can't even express how awesome this is. It's like 7 or 8 commercials one after the other, each with different little action scenarios. Wow.

Still playin with my micronauts,

"So which way would you face the curtain when you hang it?"

I would hang it facing out and hopefully it is printed on a clear vinyl so I can look out and read it in the big mirror on the opposing wall of my bathroom.

Noting like touching yourself among the noble gases.

Besides, the PowerPuff Girls curtain that previously did duty has to be replaced.

#14 "i don't quite understand what "lagos calling" is"

Well, in the literal sense, "Lagos Calling" is a sideways reference to the Clash, the album "London Calling."

In the generalized sense, I too was totally confused as to the documentary conceit being played. I was actually looking forward to checking out some cool old tyme photos of some niched scene: "skinhead" also refers to the legions of reggae bootboys and ska skins that had there own scenes, not just the pseudo-nazi muttonheads.

only "4 OUNCES" ??!!

appreciate the thought, but

only "4 OUNCES" ??!!

ah #4
I think the "overlap" will be the same folks who ride a Segway around Burning Man.

Or own a Segway at all.

1.) my bottle opener made from an old bicycle: a pie slice of an sprocket brazed to a loop of bike chain.

2.) a big oval shaped dinner plate stolen from the local German restaurant: the curbed edges, the size, the weight oooooobaby it's perfect for everything, even the local truck's super burrito, the "food log".

3.) Big stainless cup from a shake mixer: perfect for carrying almost a liter of my favorite drink: "Whiskey C**k" = two jiggers of Jim Beam to one pint powdered lemonade (pink lemonade makes "Tender C**k").

4.) Great Grandmas cast iron stew skillet; seasoned with nearly a century of stew, bacon, pan biscuits, and jambalaya.

5.)Well no. 5 would either have to be the Chemex coffee carafe/maker or our homemade vise mounted, flamethrower based quesadilla machine (mostly an outdoor toy but if you have concrete floors inside, you'll be fine... )

Re: the "Soda Club": For the CO2 workaround, I would get a small refillable tank and regulator from a homebrew beer supply house or the local gas/welding supply.
But that's me, a crusty dork.

I don't think there is any greater haven for wankery than an architecture firm - been there, escaped that.

Hah! Head of the nail duly hit!

Or maybe I'm still sore about the 4th grade - LisaPizzaFace, I still wanna sawk you. Just kidding!
