The Rancilio is hot wired and ready anytime, Ian!

**** I even have a spare Gaggia Baby Class on the back burner here at the Armstrong lab ready to launch on a moment's notice.

SpyderNut: Java never was OK - but he be hiding out on the Left Coast roasting home brew and chasing electrons around the flight research center. Good to see you and silverback still hanging in there.

Just "imported" some Robusta from DaLat in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Lookin' to set up ...

My Pit/Lab Bernie isn't too sharp. I just tell him a new Milk Bone or coffee shipment arrived and he dispatches any boxes (and occasionally contents) quite swiftly.

'sup, Tortuga??

Java checks in from time to time.

NASA keeps me busy testing and researchin' electro-chargy aero-spacey stuff. Fortunately Javascript works in the same branch I do and we can plot and talk Spydies when we need to. Might see how a Manix stands up to some 3-axis acceleration one of ...

Cool table, Tony but I fear there may be Cenobites over for dinner every night. :eek:

"You solved the table, we came. Now you must come with us, taste our pleasures."

Naw . . . The world isn't getting dumber. It reached its destination awhile ago.

USN Catcherman for me, I know, I'm slackin.

Slackin??? You're just remote. I didn't know Cal City had ANY mail delivery! :D
(Better than North Eddys or Boron though - ever since the 20-Mule Team replaced the Pony Express delivery service has been spotty.)

Lets see....USN Catchers of Men from SFO ...

Vox won a Hammer-In with his VoxBowie

My M4 lives in a 1700 Long Case. I have several Pelican dive cases that I have taken to 150' with no sign of leakage. (Also have full set of Pelican Nemo dive lights). NASA.....well at least Dryden Flight Test Center where I work, swears by them and I specify them for my test equipment whenever ...

I just did about 20 minutes of reading about can openers, people seem to have good luck with an OXO brand can opener.

Swear by my OXOs and swear AT everything else. ;)

Have had 2 for 5 years. The sine qua non for cans!! :cool: Cleaved the crowns from countless clusters of hermetically sealed ...

Gunting. Opens smooth and locks solid with a small rotation of the wrist. (Also nothing comparable when the kinetic ramp is employed.) Original Tim Zowada opened Parkay smooth and you can't tell that apart from the buttery standard......

Think thinner. Santokus have thicker blades and can cut through small bones easily. They ...

Aren't you on the wrong side of the country for something like that? :)
