I forgot to mention some serious bits about all things mechanical:
At-30 you can expect things to start breaking at random.
Things you didn’t even know existed will start to break on your car (if you can even get it started (this is unlikely unless your car/truck has been winterized {plug in block heater, oil pan heater, tran pan heater, and battery heater with trickle charge}) At -40 or colder I suggest you stay at home and don’t even mess with your personal vehicle.
Some of you may be noticing that the doors in your house stick, or perhaps you just undid the dead bolt and now you can’t rebolt it. Yep you’re screwed till the weather changes, or you could loosen the hinges and attempt to readjust the door, but at -30 the interior of the house will chill very quickly, and when it warms up again you will have to readjust it again. So if you have difficulties unlocking a door just leave it and use another door.
Don’t touch metal with bare hands; even if you don’t stick or feel pain you soon will and by then it is too late, say hello to frost bite.
And lastly don’t drink and attempt to piss outside, not only will the sensitive parts not be happy with you, but you will piss razor blades because the urine can crystallize near the opening and cause scaring. Oh and don’t pass out face down in the snow either.

Layers lots of layers; a toasty wood burning stove (not a fire place) and booze. A snuggly pet is good too. Out side of that you just have to suck on it, and dread the arrival of your heating oil bill.

I don't see how you can curb folks with the know how from doing these garage experiments... maybe free up some funding so they can work on it in a proper lab.

I used to be a clandestine warrior specializing in water born assaults... and you wonder how I got on your island. Come Donna, you know how I got there.
On a plane

Danka! I live to insult another day!

I didn't see stitch nick back together anywhere on that list {:-(

until a tiger shark eats your ass for messing around in the water {:-/

aqua man... I thought he had webbed fingers... how can a cat have webbed fingers? Don't they typically have you know... paws.

but wouldn't it be fun? When was the last time you toss caution into the wind and base jumped off of a clif into the ocean? (after many many cocktails *Amanda;)

NB, I thought you said you shaved...

eh, most of the time you are by yourself. I don't look in the mirror and apply social insults to myself because I am not ready to appear on a Calvin Kline poster/advertisement

really... I could have sworn I saw a little wiry cockroach leg sticking out of your mouth the other morning... I guess I was mistaken.

ugh! Now I will listen to you gloating about this for years. Thanks Amelia, why do you hate me, what have I ever done to you...

By the way, I call dibs on the "lost" honeymoon "tape" }:-D
That's what you get for not letting on that you were even in a relationship where a marriage was probable.

That is a very good possiblity all. I always wanted a spectrum of my own.

That is pretty close to my interpretation... I wonder if I have... pre-schizophrenia, I hardly ever care about the feelings of others ;)
