    That's a rookie mistake. Most guys think "if I walked in on some lesbians doing it they would totally want me to join in". Reality is... No they wouldn't.



    Or they would be with a dude, and a chick.

    Now, I'm not preparing for doomsday, my thinking behind it is (God forbid) if some disaster happens, we could be completely self-sufficient for weeks or months if necessary. If I have enough food to feed my family for a year, I would have food to spare to help my neighbors during that same crisis period. I've got a metric-shit ton of bottled water, because I can store that in the garage.




    Edit: Grow coral? Is there money in that?
    That's a pretty good goal. After watching The Walking Dead, I feel like I should stockpile for a disaster or something. lol

    Oh yeah. He brings in hundreds a month selling it. People buy small polyps (each piece) for anywhere $5-$100s of dollars a piece. He has a bunch of high end stuff. Each of these are a polyp about the size of my index finger.

    It really is. I traded car meets for frag/coral meets. lol Only bad side, the house smells like the ocean when he's doing a water change. We have 6 tanks and 3 sumps (a tank that filters another tank) in the house now. We are trying to get sea horses for the tank in the baby's room

    So yesterday, I bought a box of sharpies to color in the body. Got home, realized I bought Ultra-Fine Point Sharpies... FML.


    3 hours later I finished the front.

    Today after work, I stopped by the track.

    If the pics are good, it's shear luck. Took my wife's Nikon, no idea how to use it. I can turn it on and press the button, that's it. I'm not a photographer, not gonna see any watermarked "Echo Photography Ltd" on my pics. I'd be OK with just a point-n-shoot if I was left to my own devices.

    What I gathered from this thread...is why Echo is having kids at 75? Going to throw out his hip doing that.

    Because at 75 I'm rich enough to be able to afford kids.



    Do it any sooner in life in this economy and you might as well just put a bullet in your head for the insurance money. Either way, you're dead and your wife and kids get all the money.

    So... After another day at Road Atlanta, came home and decided to try my hand at paper-mache for the first time.

    Filled in the holes and went to town. First layer done. Gotta wait a day before I can do layer number 2. Will probably take 3 layers to make it smooth.

    Nothing new to report... Finished the second layer of paper mache on the helmet, cut the arm holes. Cut the straps off an old book bag to attach to the inside, but haven't attached them yet. But that's it. Going to get it finished up this weekend, will update pics then as I am out of town ATM.

    So yeah... mad rush this afternoon. Will finish up tomorrow.


    Didn't get the helmet as smooth as I would have liked... Would have needed at least three more coats that I didn't have time for.

    But onto the pictures...




    Mad props to Scotsman for donating the Stainless Steel paint for the dome.


    Gonna be the "eyeball" and thingy's that stick out of his head...

    So anyway... I've been out of town/working crazy hours so much lately my wife tried to finish the helmet and help me out, bless her heart. Needless to say it was another mad dash tonight to get it finished. And carve pumpkins. And put together our Halloween display. And...

    Anyway, not exactly how I pictured it coming out. But with the time constraints I'm damn happy, ya'll have no idea how many things went horribly wrong tonight. If I make a costume next year I'm starting in July.

    So my daughter and I are doing this tomorrow morning... Yet another early morning. Ugh...



    But it's for a good cause. Mainly the survival of the clutches in my car and truck.

    I think she was one of the best of her class in the morning. Of course I am biased and didn't stick around to watch the afternoon class.



    But she's my daughter... The skill is inherent and cannot be denied.
