oskarchem Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Right, in 3 day's I have my theoretical pilot's exam... Doing the last studies, normally it should all go well... At least I hope so...
TheSidewinder Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Random fluff #2: Gas just went below $3.00 here, at least at a couple places in the Cities....
mormanman Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I got a question and only need a yes or no answer. Will this really work and make KClO3Video.
Miech Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 If your hookah charcoal lights as easy as the coal shown in the video, it probably will. Where I live, they use sodium chlorate, so it might not work with all brands. I wish they used potassium chlorate here, it lights up in seconds where I have to wait at least 2 minutes for the coal to burn properly. Yep, I smoke hookah and I like it , especially apple and tropical flavor.
FrankRizzo Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 (edited) You also inhale large amount of carbon monoxide when smoking the hookah with charcoal...that's why you get that flushed feeling. Be careful. Edit:Mumbles...<snicker>.. Edited October 6, 2008 by FrankRizzo
Mumbles Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Mormanman, I'm curious. Have you seen the South Park episode about the Mormons?
mormanman Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Mormanman, I'm curious. Have you seen the South Park episode about the Mormons?LOL, yes some of it is complete crap but some is semi correct. Funny show and I'm surprised no one has asked me about it yet.I'm also kind of surprised that you didn't say anything about the KClO3 out of the Hookah charcoal.
Mumbles Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Oh, it was in regard to the hookah charcoal post, and actually had nothing to do with your religous beliefs. Everytime you post, I get that song in my head. Mormanman just made a post, it was dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb I'm still working on a smart smart smart smart smart line.
TheSidewinder Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Ya know, we could always set his post count back to about ohhh.... 3 or 4.
mormanman Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 LOL. You might be lucky that I'm light hearted. TS, I would wonder what happened and get a little upset but I would get over it.
oskarchem Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Okey, so today I get to have my theoretical exam, in reality it's my first real exam... It's a 60 question test. That's not so hard, but the thing is that my mom want's me to get it at my first go, ans if I do she'll pay my PPL for me... Geez, my body is pumping adrenaline real hard... I'll tell you if I got it or not.
mormanman Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 I just found this. Its a Fountain to Starmine and the fountain acts as crossette.
BigBang Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Happy birthday! :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:
Mumbles Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Nope to the forum. The forum turns 8 today. Technically it's the date we established what officially was APC forum, when we broke away from xinventions, but no one really knows when it got started. It is the establishment of APC, backdated to when the founding members got together. Of which, I may be the only remaining one. Frkonaleash, Rooster, and a few others go way back too though. We even had a female mod when I first joined. Its weird to think that I've been a mod for exactly 5 years now.
Mumbles Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 And to not contaminate my previous post while replying to mormanman. #1 It's called titanium.#2 It isn't crossetting You may find similar devices by searching for "devil amongst the tailor"
Richtee Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 #1 It's called titanium. AHA! Another use for my 10 mesh Ti coming soon! Surprised I have not got any other ideas, especially given the creativity of this group. Something not in the search? :{)
Mumbles Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 You can use it to make glittering birthday candles.
Richtee Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 You can use it to make glittering birthday candles.Heh think I'll avoid the close prox stuff. I'm sure it was just a weakened tube <Reclaimed from a comm 12 shot 1" cake> but I had a starmine go M on me the other night. I prefer LONG fuses!
asilentbob Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 (edited) Well, psyco_1322 and I learned a bit more about our strange armstrong titanium.http://www.itponline.com/index_files/ArmProcess.htmhttp://www.itponline.com/index_files/ASMarticle.pdfBasicly titanium tetrachloride vapor is spraying into a stream (of molten sodium metal) continously and the end product is continously being extracted.TiCl4 + Na ---> NaCl + TiIn an inert atmosphere of course. I'm going to send a sample to Theodore Gray, the element collector with the experiments column in Popular Science soon. I took some pictures and did a burn test in case anyone is interested.http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=2dhwnpg&s=4 Edited October 9, 2008 by asilentbob
Richtee Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 An implosion today. Stock market down 750 points. Hold on to yer asses folks. This ain't gonna be pretty. My second kid's college fund <she's a senior in HS> is wiped out.
TheSidewinder Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 I decided last week to not even LOOK at my next 401k statement when it arrives. I fear I'd be too tempted to slit my wrists.
TheSidewinder Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Oh, god, now I'm CERTAIN I won't look at it. Just turned on the News. The Dow is down about 600 points today. Lowest closing in over 5 years. "Freefall" doesn't even come close.
Mumbles Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 That armstrong process Ti is reported to be extremely reactive. I believe it was Lloyd S who commented he got some of it, and it was causing all of his gerbs to explode. Looks like its time for me to start investing on some stock here.
