I just fixed my nuclear fireplace! I'm so proud! |
|
I was having problems with neutron absorption and a a teeny little chain reaction that almost got out of control in the mixing chamber, and one of the rods was peeking out a bit. So the feds show up and wanna fine me unless I fix it. Sheesh.
And then my neighbor starts in to bitching about the steam leak and his kid's third arm. Bitch bitch bitch.
So, got it all tightened up now, and she's burnin' away!

2. Damn - and I was proud that I just replaced the heating elements |
|
in my water heater by myself this morning.
It appears as though I'm an underachiever. Seems I belong in Bush's 'Merika after all :shrug:

6. Nuke's good if you don't mind wearing the codpiece |
|
But for real heat, I prefer my sacrificial lamb-powered furnace.
