Distance day hiker, trail scout, select peaks.
Tech, space, politics, music &c.

I try not to telegraph when my tongue is in my cheek.

@mrmikeMTL What AC?

@1Nicdar That could go so very, very wrong…

@FrankBr05713205 Cathode ray tube. In my basement lab I removed the plug base for an old TV's CRT, uncovered the glass-blowing thread and snipped it. I was prepared for an implosion, but all I got was a tiny "hisssss…"

@Suzierizzo1 Final, eternal rest.

@Samaytwt Windows.

@SethAbramson He doesn't have the sense that God gave a rock. That structure would make a very nice scaffold.

@wvmattz @NASASpaceflight Found myself counting engines to remind me which heavy I was looking at.

@MysterySolvents Can we get him a penthouse in the pool? Preferably the deep end?

[The Sage Grouse @MaybeImALeo]

@otherside_X42 Maybe. Someday.

@Mericamemed Rocket J. Squirrel strikes again.
