Given that pHunk led the way with managing corrupted toaster ovens, I thought I would solicit the consortiums suggestions for the last rites and ritual cosmik send off for a simple broken toaster.

Your toaster is toast? whoa.

I guess I would vote for throwing from a 5-story tower onto a hard surface but I watched a lot of Letterman way back in the day.

I am proud to report that I can now advance to Stage 9 without losing a guy, while looking through one functional eye.

My results at Ms. Pac Man are not as fortuitous.

I guy I worked with at my first company did a lot of the programming for Ms. Pac Man. We had one in our game room, and he was really, really good at it. I sucked, so I refused to play.

I'm short on accessible 5 story towers. We've got some 5 story trees, but I'm not willing to climb them at my ripe old age.

Man I miss funny Dave. He's kinda coming back.

Buster, here you go:

The lady of the house is considerably better than I am at Ms. Pac. I'm considering not playing anymore too.

Trebuchet. A drone could work, too, but any serious retiree should own a trebuchet.

My son built a trebuchet out of pvc pipe. It's a little brittle and may not be sufficiently robust, but I'll see if we can resurrect it, however prematurely.

[Cruiser]

^^^ Yeah, why not. I mean, what could go wrong?

[Meadow Skipper]

Sig worthy.

I would buy that t-shirt

[jono]

Kinda getting my hopes up for trebuchet footage. So many options. Go for distance? Maximum impact velocity?

Somehow I picture Buster as just the guy to justify safety goggles and a serious bunker and the like. Could be Trinity in miniature. Sweet!

If you want some serious range build a potato/ turnip cannon

Trebucheting is a cool hobby. I seen some dudes chuck a vw beetle, or a piano or some shit with one on the tv. It's up there with punkin chunkin in terms of how much you wanna escalate shit.

If you have to ask, you missed it

with a blown toaster?

A local guy used a 100gal propane cylinder with a 6' pipe shooting over the cab of his truck which was towing a 250 CFM compressor to charge the tank, it would shoot a turnip several hundred yards

it severly outclassed the 4 trebechet in the comp

they would hold the event just after halloween to toss pumpkins

Best way to ship a small bottle of liquor?
Lying to UPS seems the only "good" option I can come up with so far.

[BmillsSkier]

I’ve shipped tons of single bottles of wine and liquor by boxing it up myself and dropping it off at the UPS Store. They don’t give a shit. Just make sure it’s well packed and in plastic in case it breaks.

Jono - Where Silverwood is now located in/near Athol, there used to be an airfield there, the Henley Aerodrome. Every year, they would host a keg catapult competition for the local civil engineering colleges, NIC, SCC, WSU, U of I, others... We entered the contest and did lousy, like 50 yards or something. Not that same year but we heard about one school, maybe UI that shot a keg a quarter mile with their catapult the year before. Kind of funny....dangerous, but funny. Needless to say, we didn't win a blue ribbon.

Anyone have any experience selling a car to Carvana? I’m helping my niece who lives in another state sell a car she inherited from her recently deceased Mom. Cars not registered or insured so any traditional private party sale will be a bitch. It’s a decent low mileage car not sexy but not a shot box. I figured the Carvana model might be just the ticket.

i just took a car to Carmax, got a quote, took that quote to a local dealership offering $500 premium on top of Carmax and 24 hrs later had my check. won't work in all markets but worth checking in to.

[Obstruction]

Good to know but this car hasn’t got plates on it so selling it to an outfit that’s willing to pick it up is very appealing.
