Looks like another cold night. I have yet to fire up the fire place this year. Maybe this week though.

Depends if you're using english or SI units on that 3*. ;) Still, 3*F and no wind, that's not really too bad.

Yesterday I experienced the final disposal of a couple of old hard drives by poking some 40 caliber holes in them (standard procedure here, or flatten and beat them to pieces with a splitting maul). It's fun annihilating old stuff!

That is my plan for tomorrow morning. I have one old HDD and 2 cell phones that need to be disposed. I will be using 9mm and 45.

Who'd have ever thought that mixing up a cement like compound, dumping it into a microwave oven with the door facing up, inserting your head and breathing through a small plastic hose might not be a good idea..........

I saw the story about the idiot cementing his head in the microwave on Saturday. I just figured dumb-ass got a hold of some potent drugs and pulled their version of "hold my beer and watch this..."

Would serve the dumbass right. His friends obviously didn't try to discourage him and apparently assisted in this ridiculous idea. All involved in this stunt possess the mental agility of a small soap dish...
