I burned myself, in public school, in high school physics, while soldering. Pencil iron was sitting funny in the stand, so I grabbed it, as you would grab a pencil but just in front of the grip. 5 minutes later I was in my chemistry class and it was a scantron final... get out your number two pencils... hurts to think about. seriously though, if they can have shop classes with welding I am sure they can have soldering.

quick somebody mod that asshole insightful, he was bashing bush, that should be worth +5 or so... too bad he posted as an anonymous coward, now nobody can go over to his house and give him a thank you blow job.

I on the other hand mention Obama in a negative light in a fucking joke post in a joke thread and get hammered for it. you guys are the biggest bunch of pussies I have ever seen. I hope you all choke to death on an anonymous cowards dick... or maybe Obama's holy dick will be the object of your asphyxia. I hear that when he takes a dump, golden beams shoot from his eyes, and if you drink his piss, it causes your bank acount balance to increase tenfold.

now if they would just make it so I can watch a few youtube videos in a row, without b0rking my firefox running in linux I will be happy.. seriously, can we get this done? Its gotten better over the last couple years, but I still have to kill -9 firefox after watching 10 or so videos. My favorite is when the audio freaks out and plays a 1 second loop at max volume until I kill it. Or I have seen no video, but audio is fine. I am not saying this is youtubes fault, but then again, maybe it is their fault for not using open technology for their videos, which would be available to everyone.

gotta go with Forrest M. Mims III. I know there are some people out there rolling there eyes because of his stance on intelligent design, but you are missing the point. This is the guy who wrote all the books about electronics radio shack used to sell. Those books are still available, although the price is a little higher now that the shack doesn't stock them. I just saw them at Fry's though, so I know they are readily available. I started reading those books and tinkering with electronics in the 4th grade. It gave me a lifelong love of electronics and science. I still rely on the stuff I learned from those books twenty years later. Check out his website. Whether or not you agree with his conclusions, his inventions and experiments are exactly the kind of stuff I would want my kids to do.

I was just thinking the good news is that if somebody hacks my brain, they will just find all the information from the internet that I have filled it with.

goatse,
eel soup,
two girls one cup,
kids in sandbox,
dump.jpg (ok that one was off of a Hermes II bbs back in the day, not the internet)

I mean if they want that stuff... they can have it.
