Bandit on a Safari and I'm Hunting Unicorns

Might have pics of it around here in a file but yeah the NASA space center down in Houston is awesome!
I did the shuttle simulator too and burned that fucker up on reentry every time.
Got to see all the famous rockets from the space program going back decades and have a selfie standing next to a space shuttle engine.
That's probably my favorite museum deal in all of Texas. And the town it's in, Kemah, is super fun.
It's a Houston suburb so that's why NASA is considered to be in Houston but Kemah is pretty much like Texas' version of Coney Island in NYC.
In fact the funny coincidence is we're likely headed down there to spend a day or two this Summer. North of Kemah in another suburb is Conroe and every Saturday night they have dirt racing so we'll try to a do a little space, racing, and foodie adventure down there in several weeks.
WE stayed right across the street to the south in a small hotel/bar, a famous franchise I can't remember the name of. We had a blast everyone loved our accent....we thought that's funny cause you are the ones with accents....lol...we'd have fun trying to mimic each others speak...lol

We flew to Houston, rental car, Space Center, Galviston, New Orleans, Orlando, Miami, home. a 2 week Spring break 88-89 ish
 
When I was cleaning up my steeltainers because I forgot to order more groves, one container was still full and labeled "More Cowbell"
How long has it been since we grew that??!!

more cowbell?!?! man gotta be around nine years ago according to youtube.. i remember shooting this video for you one sunday afternoon before you even followed these clowns!!!! hahaha


The new sonic cleaner has none of that fancy stuff man. Even a drain valve would be nice but it's bare bones.
It gets warm and buzzes. 🤣
IDK what sort of weird Chinese gobboldygook deal there is on the temp display. I'm pretty sure it's not 3000*F and more like around 90 but it does a great job.
I do one of two things with the iso...Use it until it's so brown and gross I dump it down the toilet or actually try to strain it thru a coffee filter and reclaim it. That just depends on what I've cleaned and how dirty the iso gets.
Overall, I'd say 1 quart of iso gives me a month worth of cleaning.
I'm also using 70% iso I buy in bulk at Costco. I'm not sure but I don't think it's very flammable at all so I don't worry about fumes or anything.

thats pretty much how i do it.. leave it in there till it's pretty gross. it takes a while, i only really clean my atomizer and dip tips..then i put it in a jar of clean iso right after i take them out of the sonic cleaner.. but man i wish mine had a drain too, or even a spout would make it nice.. always made a mess so i started using a giant syringe..

i don't even know why they would make something like this?!/! but i got one!!!!!

I'm still super late on veggies but I think there's still time to get some peppers and melons going. Maybe some squash too.
Will drop seeds for that today and also drop the freakshow.

oh wow you're starting the freakshow already!!! sweet man!!! my seeds are almost here.. sitting in jersey city right now!!!

Have another idea about the VG I think you'll like. Gonna test it out today. I want to see if I can use newspaper. Either completely replace the paper towel or a single layer over the paper towel.
I want to see how well it wicks up water. If it can wick then it can replace paper towel but if it don't wick too well then just use it as a surface layer over the paper towel.
I'm doing this to slicken up the channel. You were saying when they fishbone they can grab the paper so I'm thinking newsprint would possibly fix that. Newsprint works great for making paper pots, biodegradable, plant friendly...Just makes sense.
I can't fix user error when it comes to that thing but I can address some things and figure them out. Grabby roots is one I think I can cure with a little thought and innovation.

man it's more than just the fishbones the actual tap root sometimes grows through the towel on me!! so i'm not sure if this was intentional or not but when you sent me your controller you wrapped it in paper towels for protection.. i noticed they weren't like the bounty towels i use so i saved em... then i forgot to tell you that one of the seeds i started recently i used your towel instead... fucker grew right through the middle!!! hahaha i've just learned to slide them out carefully!! maybe newspaper would help me. i'll try it!!

eah I grabbed up my all star points! No fantasy points this week though. Fuckers.
I need to hit big on the pwerball. Like a fatty 500 or something would be nice.

it was nice to ge the 10x streak along with the check in today!!! at least i sure hope you got your 10x!!! i scored like 165 points today i think.

That's a real good idea there!
What about decarbing and processing it into a sauce or cooking oil?
I also like the idea of handing it off to a commercial extractor then using that distillate for edibles.

i think i'm just gonna decarb it all and portion it out and vac seal it on pouches and leave it in it's rawest form so i can make anything with it. a long time ago i made a huge batch of coconut oil and was so sick of it by the time i was half way through i ended up just giving it away!

i'll leave it in material form and freeze it, then i can just pull out a pouch and throw it in the magical butter machine or something and make a small batch of oil or whatever whenever i want...

i was planning on decarbing most of what i have.. i'll just mix it all together.

You know this post was supposed to be done last night but I went down a rabbit hole looking at tea for two hours thanks to you.
I'm gonna order some of those fruit teas for Summer.
That's all I drink is tea, hot or cold. Well bottled spring water too.
Cold, I mix with fruit juice or hibiscus fresca juice and warm just honey and lemon.
Their fruit flavors are super unique and tantalizing to me. Plus I have my mint plant taking off ready to garnish some tall glasses of iced tea!

i bought that sampler too man, just got it today, econo shipping was next day fedex for me!!! ships right from NJ about 25 minutes down the road!! now i know when i buy coffee if i pay the shipping i'll get it way quicker than the free service that goes through three shippers to get to me. plus fedex brings it right to my door. probably the coolest fedex driver i ever met to boot!! we chatted for a while, even gave fist bumps a few times!!! hehe
