    Oh yes! That common litany. It sounds the same, regardless of language.

    I told this story before, but this is a good intro!

    The wife calls up hubby at work and emails him THE list of 'a few things I'd like you to pick up on your way home, dear!' He's listening to her about watching out for price scams, he hears the kids in the background just raising all the raucous they can, and once the list has finally shown up in his mailbox, he says "OK, dear! I got the list." She gnatters that his computer is sloow, and then hangs up before he get to print it.

    He leaves the office, muttering to himself - Just because I'm a senior partner, doesn't mean I own the bank. This 'little LIST' is too much. Knowing she'd remember something as he left for the store, he left his cellphone at the Office, recharging!

    He's got the Big Chevy Wagon, and she wanted his Porsche to go to the Bridge Game (Gaggle-fest). So he needs TWO shopping carts, 15 shopping bags, and he's fuming! I mean cheesed!

    He gets home, he can hear the kids inside. Nobody offers to help! Unloads all the bags, closes up the wagon. Grabs two arms full of bags and starts knocking with his head. He grabbed the meat bags first, the neighbor's Pitbull was sniffing the other bags. She rants and yells and tells him to open his own f*cking door, that she was so busy that she didn't even have time to wipe her a$$.

    He hollers back that that explains the brown spots on his balls! :evilsmile: And now he knew why!

    My geek days really slowed down since the car got my attention. I got close. With wives, that might still be a country mile off. :evilsmile:

    Internet radio

    I have 2 sites I go to for internet radio stations. Live 365 and Pandora Radio.

    Pandora Radio will let you build your own radio station for all types of music.
    Look up Roadking there right now I'm doing Rock and will add other types of music I like.

    You GOTTA hear this thing!

    If skydiving doesn't quite do it for you, you could always strap a jet engine to your chest. That's what Bob Maddox did until discretion got the better of him and he decided a jet-powered bicycle might be a little safer.
    Maddox, an artist and cabinetmaker in Medford, Ore., has been tinkering with pulse jet engines for seven years now. He's recently started bolting them to old-school cruiser bicycles and selling them on eBay, and a video of him riding one is bouncing around the blogosphere.
    We got ahold of him at his workshop, where he's wrapping up a sweet purple jet bike for a customer in the Netherlands. He's only built two so far. He got the first one up to 50 mph but backed off when visions of catastrophic wheel failure danced in his head. He figures the bikes will hit 75 if anyone's got the guts to do it.:dance:

    And I'll bet it can really melt some snow, eh Norm?

    Pulse combustion has been around since the V1-bomb. My partner and I helped a couple of Wild-west gold miners develop their business team and patents to build Clean-burning coal generators. So impressive that the US State Hot water tank CEO bought in, and later bought them out. When you take the muffler off, you think you're standing in the middle of a dirt-track derby! And that's just on a hotwater tank! :D

    IIRC, those things fluctuate with any change in air-density, humidity or volume of fuel injected into the 'pulse' column. If they glow, even with all those variables, they'd fry the paint off PDQ, too.
