[Professional Engineer]

I KNEW I recognized you from someplace.

[Professional Engineer]

You and be both Ms. Feather

[Professional Engineer]

Yes’m slept like a baby through it. I understand the sirens did sound, but I sleep really hard.

[Samwise]

Slept through it? You sound like Hubby.

We're glad you are all OK. The family needs to buy you an asbestos suit and a crash helmet.

[snippy_about_it]

What about the Mrs? Or even Bitty-girl. I guess they figured if you could survive 3 Saturns you could sleep through one tornado. :-)

[Professional Engineer]

We've settled into teardrop time with this weeks events. Spiderboy and I did put the axle on last Sunday.

[Soaring Feather]

I think that is a fine thing to do together. After your fire of trial by wind and fire, you need to work on teardrops wheels. ;0)

[Soaring Feather]

Should read, after your trial of wind and fire.

I need a nap.

Spiderboy is shooting up now ain’t he. Getting taller.

[Professional Engineer]

They both are. Bittygirl is taller than many of her friends.

[Professional Engineer]

Simply amazing what you can do with a pound of plastic.

[alfa6]

I am not sure that strictly speaking [Si(CH3)2O]n + 2n HCl is a plastic, but I could be wrong:-)

Hey, geek speak!

Upon reflection I apparently posted the above comment on the wrong thread. I thought that the pound of plastic remark had to do with the Saturday Sortie Bonus Pic on the Canteen.

Yes plastic buckets, are strictly speaking, plastic!

I am sorry for the confusion :-)

No silicon in 5 gal buckets? I’m crushed.

[alfa6]

No silicon in 5 gal buckets? I’m crushed.

Probably residual amounts from the mold release.

Most 5 gal buckets are High Density Polyethelene. Used to recycle several hundred of them suckers a week through the big grinder where I once worked. And as an added bonus we had to put the buckets in the compactor before we could grind them up.
