We have snow coming tomorrow, too. :( :(
:D :p

[General Zod]

It got to the 20's F here in Ohio today Wanna trade locations? :fingerscrossed:

:D :p

[milagros317]

In the frigid weather here, I just look at my tickets for spring training games in Arizona and anticipate the sunshine there. :D :p

Actually I always liked the cold. I really cant take the heat. Probably from me working in the desert for awhile at the explosives plant, Always was around 100-135 in there. :(

:D :D :p

:D :D :p

I don't see how anyone could work in that heat :D :p

[milagros317]

I prefer the desert to places like Minnesota. :D :p

[General Zod]

I prefer the desert to places like Minnesota. :D :p

I rode through the desert on a horse with no name :sing:

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Its easier and cheaper to keep warm then cool as well. We paid over a 1000 dollars for our electric bill in the hottest part of summer out here. So while the heat might sound fun and glorious its darn expensive. The winter is a lot cheaper.

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

You should have named your horse. :D :p
(I like that song, actually.)

Very^9999999999999999999999999999 true for out there my friend It would be nice to live in a perfect climate Say no more than 65F or so in the day,and no less than 45F at night :D :p

[General Zod]

You should have named your horse. :D :p
(I like that song, actually.)

What shall I name my horse?
:D :p

(they are a great group)

[milagros317]

Very few places have a perfect climate needing neither AC in the summer nor heating in the winter. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I heard a report that said 75 is like idea temperature for most people. 65 would be good though too. :p

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Very few places have a perfect climate needing neither AC in the summer nor heating in the winter. :D :p

Actually Central California is probably pretty close. It never gets really hot there or really cold. Only problem is its expensive probably cause its so nice LOL. You also get a few more storms then in Southern Calif as well. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

As long as it gets warm enough for me to wear shorts,I am happy :D :p

[milagros317]

Not to mention earthquakes, which are a different problem. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

There is advanced technology for cooling or heating that no one seems to have explored. It revolves around the fact that at any temperature there is a statistical distribution of molecules at various energies. What the device does it to seperate the low energy molecules from the high energy ones. Thus if you want heat you collect the high energy ones and put them in your room. You want cooling you put the low energy ones into your room. Very nice device. Was in Scientific American never seen anyone use it or explore it.

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yea those run from north to central to south. We had another minor one out here a week or so ago. :D :D :p

Probably because it makes too much sense to use it :p

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

:D :p

Uses a lot less electricity too. LOL :p

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

An actual Maxwell's Demon in operation? How much does it cost? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

An actual Maxwell's Demon in operation? How much does it cost? :D :p

Well the Scientific American one was rather small but really just needs fans to move the air about from what I saw. Fans are not too pricey to operate usually about 170 watts for a big one vs 1350 watts lets say for my 15000 BTU AC. :D :D :p My guess is there is probably a problem scaling it up. Seems though people shouls at least research it. :(

:D :p :D

[milagros317]

It sounds very promising to me. In any mass of air, the temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules and some of them will, of course, be well above or well below average. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

It sounds very promising to me. In any mass of air, the temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules and some of them will, of course, be well above or well below average. :D :p

Yes thats the principle. Its like a kinetic seperator. Not sure if anoyone explored it further. The article I mentioned was in Sci. Amer. like maybe 25-30 years ago. :p

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

I want one of those for my apartment (as long as it's small enough to fit in the window like a room AC), it could be used for heating in winter and AC in summer. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I want one of those for my apartment (as long as it's small enough to fit in the window like a room AC), it could be used for heating in winter and AC in summer. :D :p

Yea thats what was cool about it. You can just choose high or low energy molecules and can have heating or cooling respectively. :p

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

I am sure the electric companies would want people to have them :p

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

I am sure the electric companies would want people to have them :p

:D :p

My thoughts exactly. ;) :p

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

Electric companies would do their best to fight it :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Electric companies would do their best to fight it :D :p

Yea I am sure they would. :(

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

I am sure the electric companies would want people to have them :p

:D :p

Con Edison would have a fit. :D :p

[General Zod]

Con Edison would have a fit. :D :p

Because they wouldn't make such a huge profit? :eek:

:D :p

[milagros317]

Yes, that's what I was thinking. They make a fortune every summer when all the AC's are on.
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Because they wouldn't make such a huge profit? :eek:

:D :p

Electric heaters and AC always use a lot of wattage. Thats how electric companies make most of their many is on heating and cooling stuff. :p

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

Yes, that's what I was thinking. They make a fortune every summer when all the AC's are on.
:D :p

I am sure PP&L do as well. :D :p

[milagros317]

My latest bill from Con Edison shows them charging an outrageous 10.25 cents per kilowatt hour. :eek:
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

My latest bill from Con Edison shows them charging an outrageous 10.25 cents per kilowatt hour. :eek:
:D :p

Oh my that is very high. :wowzer:

:D :p

[milagros317]

Oh my that is very high. :wowzer:

:D :p

Yes, it is. And that rate goes up every summer, too. :eek: They claim higher costs at peak demand. :Grrr:
:D :p

Try some Hyperfluidium-40 on them thats should work. Its like hyperdimensional WD-40. :D :D :p

[Helena]

The zipper is stuck eh? :D :p

The zipper is stuck right in the middle of my back....it won't go up or down. Since it's all one piece, I can't get it off. :D :p

[General Zod]

Hyperfluidium-40 always works great. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

It sure does my friend

I am calling it a night now Doing way too much :yawnface:

See you all tomorrow Peace and wuv :wub: :bunny: :D :p

[milagros317]

A new day has dawned and it's sure to be a fine one for our Armada. :D :p

[General Zod]

A good Sunday my friends How is everyone? :D :p

[milagros317]

I slept quite late today and feel fine now, General Zod. I hope that all is well with you today. :D :p

[General Zod]

I slept quite late today and feel fine now, General Zod. I hope that all is well with you today. :D :p

Twas a good day on my end my friend How was the play last night? :D :p

[milagros317]

It was very entertaining, and lasted until after midnight. :D :p

[General Zod]

It was very entertaining, and lasted until after midnight. :D :p

Trying to think of the last time I stayed up past midnight :D :p

[milagros317]

I rarely do. And I rarely sleep past 9am, which was the result. :D :p

[General Zod]

I don't like to sleep past 7AM It feels like the day is wasted to me

When I was younger,I could sleep in real late :D :p

[milagros317]

So could I, many years ago. :D :p

[General Zod]

I have cut down on my caff. drinks That has helped a lot :D :p

[milagros317]

I don't drink coffee any more but I still get some caffeine from chocolate. :D :p

[General Zod]

Usually one,maybe two cups of coffee for me after I get up I do nothing until I get some caff.in my system first:p Then a coca cola in the afternoon

If I drink too much coffee,it upsets my stomach :D :p

[milagros317]

Up until I was in my late 40's I could drink all the coffee that I wanted, all day long, with no apparent ill effects. Now even one cup of coffee gives me immediate acid reflux. :eek:
:D :p

[General Zod]

I don't wish acid reflux on anyone :(

:D :p

[milagros317]

Fortunately, it's under control with Prevacid. :D :p

[General Zod]

Fortunately, it's under control with Prevacid. :D :p

That's good to hear my friend I imagine you have to watch what you eat as well? :D :p

[milagros317]

Yes, some of the spicy types of food that I used to like (such as Mexican or Szechuan food) are not on my menu any longer. :(
:D :p

[General Zod]

Sorry to hear that my friend :(
It really stinks when you can no longer enjoy certain foods :D :p

[milagros317]

Thanks for your sympathy. I do still eat well. :D :p

[General Zod]

Thanks for your sympathy. I do still eat well. :D :p

You are welcome my friend :D


It can be hard to eat right on the road Usually the only time I can get a good amount of veggies,is if I have the dinner buffet Not sure if that is good or bad :D :p

[milagros317]

Must be hard to get enough fiber sometimes on the road, unless you take a box of bran along with you.
:D :p

[General Zod]

Must be hard to get enough fiber sometimes on the road, unless you take a box of bran along with you.
:D :p

Oddly enough,I don't have a big need for fiber I usually eat some cereal in the morning,then have a sandwich for lunch I like to have apples with me as well :D :p

[milagros317]

The cereal and apples are probably all the fiber that you need. :D :p

[General Zod]

The cereal and apples are probably all the fiber that you need. :D :p

Yep :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Hi mils. Hi General Zod. :D :D :p

:D :D :p

Twas a good day here It got to around 30F or so today :p

:D :p

[milagros317]

I'm fine, Kurch. I have tomorrow off. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Twas a good day here It got to around 30F or so today :p

:D :p

Well better then in the minuses i guess. :p


I'm fine, Kurch. I have tomorrow off. :D :p

Cool. Sounds good. :)

:D :D :p :p

[General Zod]

Well better then in the minuses i guess. :p



Cool. Sounds good. :)

:D :D :p :p

Got that right my friend :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Got that right my friend :D :p

Its very warm here again. Like mid 80's, at least the new AC seems to work well. :)

:D :p

[milagros317]

Like mid 80's, at least the new AC seems to work well. :)

:D :p

I"m very glad to hear that. :D :p

:D :p

Glad to hear it works my friend :wave:

:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yea I am bit miffed though unit already has a few dents in it. :(

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

How did it get dented already? :(
:D :p

[General Zod]

Yea I am bit miffed though unit already has a few dents in it. :(

:D :D :p

That blows :(

They should send you a new one :D :p

[kurchatovium]

How did it get dented already? :(
:D :p

Good question. If I ask them to replace it I have to remove all my stuff again so its too much of a hassle. I am not happy though. :(

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

As long as it works, it's probably better to live with the dents.
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

As long as it works, it's probably better to live with the dents.

My thoughts exactly. :)

:D :p

[General Zod]

Did the delivery guy take note of the dents? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Did the delivery guy take note of the dents? :D :p

No it was an electrician who picked it up at Sears and installed it. :(

Oh yeah. I really hate that. Some gas stations have really nasty restrooms too even if they let you use them. :(

I can't believe a truck stop exists without bathrooms. That is just awful, my dear. Do you encounter this often on the road? :redheart:

[General Zod]

Truck stops usually take good care of the rest rooms thankfully :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I had one for years but gave it up. :(

:D :D :p

[baldadonis]

I'm currently overpaying on cell phone service with my iphone. But its totally worth it to be able to get on the internet anytime, especially the TMF.

[General Zod]

Indeed ;)

My cell phone is AT&T It was Cingular,until AT&T took over I use Sprint for my internet :D :p

[milagros317]

My cell phone has internet capabilities but is rather slow when being used that way. :(
:D :p

[General Zod]

Don't think I have a need for an iphone :D :p

[milagros317]

I'm not planning to upgrade in the near future. :D :p

[Helena]

I definitely can't afford an IPhone, but they sure look cool!

[General Zod]

I definitely can't afford an IPhone, but they sure look cool!

They sure do :D :p

[Helena]

How many calls do you make per week, ye old fart?
:neenerneener::neenerneener:

[kurchatovium]

I wish all phones were as cool as the iPhone. :p

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

:neenerneener::neenerneener:

[kurchatovium]

When I had my cell phone I only made like one call a day. :)

[General Zod]

I usually prefer to call people on my network It's free that way :D

I have one of the pay as you go plans I just use a prepaid card on mine :D :p

[Helena]

I have a pay as you go plan, also, but I don't have a card. I pay monthly.
:D :D :D
Kurchie, I didn't get a cell phone until I went to school full time, and I was on the computer. I have dial up internet, so my line was always busy. No one could reach me......so, I got it out of necessity.

[General Zod]

It is snowing now :(

:D :p

:D :p

[Helena]

:D :D :p

I didn't want to pay the phone company for another number. But, it actually costs more to have the cell. I need the convenience of leaving the house, and getting the calls from ZOD. (I'm just kidding.) LOL :D :D

I didn't want to pay the phone company for another number. But, it actually costs more to have the cell. I need the convenience of leaving the house, and still get calls from ZOD. (I'm just kidding.) LOL :D :D

Yea it was same for me cheaper to have a new line. I dont go out much since I work out of the house so this was a good option for me. :)

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

What are some of your favorite science fiction books or television shows? :D :D

There is an author named John Ringo who writes military sci-fi He wrote a Polseen series(nickname for the series) The Polseen were an alien race that were Centaur like Horse type body,and a crocodile head

They would conquer worlds by simply eating the beings on the planet That series I have read each book three or four times :D :p

Interesting idea. :)

[General Zod]

In addition to the Polseen race,there were other alien races helping the humans One of the things they gave was a rejuvanation formula The humans would take say an 80 yearl old world war two vet this formula You'd then have a 20 year old man with the brains of an 80 year old man :D :p

Communications are of critical importance whether you are running a business or doing a military operation. Unfortunately they often are overlooked. :(

[milagros317]

A little snow here today but not too much.
:D :p

[General Zod]

Sun came out today where I am I think it got to near 30F I almost wore shorts today :eek:

:D :p

[milagros317]

I don't wear shorts until it gets over 70 degrees. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Mid 70's today here. They say there might be some rain at the end of the week. :( I hope they are wrong.

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

I don't wear shorts until it gets over 70 degrees. :D :p

If I am not outside for more than 15 minutes or so,or I feel it's too chilly,I will wear shorts if it's 40F or higher :D :p

[milagros317]

You must be used to the cold by doing that. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I dont ever wear shorts. :p

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

:D :D :p

*I just gotta ask*

What do you wear then? :D :p

[milagros317]

Very interesting contrast. I don't think many people are like that, except some people have cold hands and feet while the rest of them is warm. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

*I just gotta ask*

What do you wear then? :D :p

Usually courdoroy pants. :)

(back in a few)

[kurchatovium]

Any part of Florida would be nicer than here this time of year. Even near the alligators. :D :p

[General Zod]

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

:D :D :p

I agree. They don't bite as often and they have smaller teeth even when they do bite. :D :p

[General Zod]

I rather see a bikini babe then a gator. :p

:D :D :p
And how brother Especially is her car is stuck in the sand :woot::woot:

[milagros317]

With long legs and wearing a small bikini is best. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

With long legs and wearing a small bikini is best. :D :p

Much better then a Alligator in a bikini. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Much better then a Alligator in a bikini. :D :D :p

Indeed so. Alligators tend to have short ugly legs. And four of them. :eek:
