Yeah, that land on the back looks like it might've knocked the wind out of him or something... fortunately that head was floating around to protect his dignity though!!!
Mr. Jronny Lee: we're getting together at my place tomorrow, we will be there by 1:00. Give me a call if you need directions or have any other questions!

AHAHAHHAHAHA...
High tech Toilet humor is pretty! At least, props for putting so much effort in the designing and making it good quality joke. Unlike some of those on Americas funniest videos or some of those other shows are mainly plain old reused gags.
The last guy looked like he might have gotten hurt though. Spells Lawsuit all over it if that had been done in the US.

I think what was off with that preview is just that the actors all look a little bit off. Little too old, akward. Dante looks the same, but the other dude looks kinda freakish. The jokes - meh. You'd hope its full of jokes they CANT show on a preview, but whatever - I bet it's entertaining enough.
Crazy tales, Erick! Santa Cruz is the SHIT. Fuck man, too bad you can't live there, if I was all family-style, I think I'd wanna live there. Such a pretty place. Oh, maybe you guys can move to Catalina! I read an article about the graduating high-school kids there. Class of 58 students I think. Pretty fuckers sweet.

Dangerously explosive
One might even say that jr0n, Ja-El and I have brains and sexual organs filled with M-80s. I just hope no one see any sexy ladies, 'cause you never know when one of us might just get blowed the fuck up trying to attract a mate.
Elzar, from what I understand from conversations with others, Pacifica is the foggiest place on the planet. I hope that your next visit will be more fruitful.
Oh and your a jArk for not telling me that before. Everytime I went to do that work, maybe several times over a couple years I would totally forget how to use the script and how I needed to prep the data file. Ass, ass, ass...
That is good that they caught that little prick. That is just f'd up. I mean who the hell intentionally runs over someone. What an asshat. How does a Kid get that screwed up?

Bears are crazy Willie, they'll bite your head off if you wear steak on it.

He FAILED the part where he said it was an accident? What the fuck. I hope her dad is OK.
"Innsmouth of the west coast," definitely. Well, come back up and check out the East Bay more thoroughly next time. If you can't take Santa Cruz, I think you'll find a "next best thing" over there.
If you do, we can make that the official East Bay motto. East Bay: We're the Next Best Thing!
Jael, Enron and I are getting together tomorrow and I would be surprised, nay shocked, if gaming did not result from the combination of our dangerously explosive minds.

Spreadsheet, Clerks, The AT Book: Eject Functionality, NorCal, and Fuckers
Spreadsheet - There should be some more games entered into the spreadsheet cause we are having a small games day of sorts here. Me, Leslie, Heather, Ryan, his co-worker and uber nerd, Brad, maybe Denis and maybe Peter will attend. Hooray!
Clerks - Yeah, it didn't really look that fantastiche. Kinda like it should have happened first, then he learned how to make a better movie, and then filmed the first one second. You know?
The AT Book: Eject Functionality - I think, and this is without actually checking, but remember the Perl script you wrote to reverse all the posts Enron, and all that crap? Well, I THINK, I could have saved you a lot of trouble by simple changing a setting in Blogger as to how to publish the posts, and then re-publish the whole site. I think it would have been a lot easier on you....
NorCal - NorCal is still in progress. We have to stay away from Leslies family because they suck, and the problem with that is where we really WANT to live is Santa Cruz and the surrounding areas, which is off limits because of them. So, our hand is being forced further north, to the SF area, which is still probably too close.
We looked at Pacifica pretty throughly, drove around with an agent and whatnot, and if I didn't know any better, I would say that Pacifica is the Innsmouth of the west coast. Or the San Pedro of the North, take your pick.
It is a blue collar, run down, beach town. Strange. No one really was smiling, except for the scary Info Booth woman, who was TOO happy and nosy. There is a definate vato vibe among the youth, lots of saggin', trucks, and long wallet chains. No kids were really smiling and playing. The place was built up in the 70's and just never really grew past that. No movie theatre, schools are closing, the only place to by clothes is Ross, and yet, it is an AMAZING little pocket of nature. Ocean on one side, and national park on the other, seems like it should be thriving, but what I understand is the city council retards growth initiatives and assures a continued decline.
Yet the houses that were a stones throw from the ocean, with no ocean view, in neighborhoods that looked exactly like old Torrance, or Inglewood, and some of Compton, were on the market in the mid $700k's. FTW? On the market and selling are two different things, but still. Koo koo bananas.
The quest continues. We didn't really get to look at much else with the whole Leslie
s dad getting runover by a motorcyle thing. They caught the kid who did it: 17, with a record, sheriff's son, failed a polygraph saying it was an accident, and when they tracked him down, he was loading the bike that he used to hit him, into a covered truck and was taking the truck to a farm to hide it... Guilty! *sword thrust through the gut*
Fuckers - Fuckers.

Okay...
I was very excited about the up coming release of Clerks II. You know the first one was some of the funniest shit ever. I mean terrible acting, ridiculous premise, but the one liners were brilliant and some of the dialog was hilarious. Well... The trailer for Clerks II is available and... Dear god Kevin Smith has burned all his ideas with all his previous movies. I guess I should have known that Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back was truly the indicator of the end of his ideas. It just was not funny at all. In fact it was sort of sad. I donno. Maybe the movie is good and they picked the absolutely worst scenes for the trailer. Booo....
Elzar: How did your adventures in the bay area pan out? Good Bad or indifferent?

When Dub signed the energy bill into law, it included a huge mandated increase in the production of ethanol.. from 4.5 billion-ish up to around 8 billion-ish (numbers off the top of my head).. which sparked an equally as huge bump in the values of ethanol manufacturers' stock prices from in the teens to high fourties (and now hovering around the high thirties and low forties, I believe). While ethanol is largely bullshit (FUCKERS!) ... it has the P.R. going for it and the lobbyist groups pumping hard cash into the pockets of our politicians.
I'm going to try and work our new mascot-word into every post I think.

I don't really want to get into this but...
Article about super-ethanol. Take it for what it is worth.
Article about super-ethanol. Take it for what it is worth.
B is for the Biomass
Ja –El: I think you are missing a bit of info being out of the US. Most Gas sold in the US is roughly 5-10% ethanol as we speak. All California gas is sold with ethanol now. It is used as a smog emissions additive to replace MTBE for environmental reasons. Ethanol production has been growing like gang busters and is having a issues keeping up with demand as state laws have been slowly bringing the requirements into enforcement. Plants are poking up everywhere while the number of gasoline refineries has not increased in decades. Greater than 10% ethanol usage requires a special engine modification, called E85 or 85% ethanol, 15% gasoline. Some manufactures have been producing these vehicles in anticipation of expanded ethanol % usage in the future. Now many SIGs have been pushing the use of ethanol as a replacement of gasoline and foreign oil dependency. This is where the program goes off on the idiot stage. SIG research claims the production produces a positive energy output, but there is no real way to tell for sure. If it is that hazy, it just seems unlikely to be efficient enough.
Diesel is nasty. Unless they severely restrict the emissions standards (Particularly diesel’s sulfur content and particulate matter output), this is not changing. Plus it smells like shit. Although not as bad as the painter I had to escort up to a tenant floor. Foul that man was.

From wiki:
There is ongoing research into finding more suitable crops and improving oil yield. Using the current yields, vast amounts of land and fresh water would be needed to produce enough oil to completely replace fossil fuel usage. It would require twice the land area of the US to be devoted to soybean production, or two-thirds to be devoted to rapeseed production, to meet current US heating and transportation needs.
That being said, if we can figure out a way to get the algae-method of oil production to work, then it just might happen. Of course, the rub is going to be that Big Oil will do all the research and own all the patents and shelve all of it until they milk us for cash like a prized dairy cow.
