| Thanksgiving Plans |
[Nov. 26th, 2008|01:40 pm] |
Michelle and I will be having a small Thanksgiving dinner for 10 people at my house at 6PM. Feel free to stop by after that for drinks. I have 3 kegs of Leinenkugel Sunset Wheat because I love that beer so much!
Friday night will be our big Thanksgiving Feast. 8PM to whenever with massive amounts of food.
It is also Brittany's birthday party. I will have a big bonfire going in the backyard, and the hot tub is very nice in the snow.
So come over! |

| 9/11 party |
[Sep. 11th, 2008|03:55 pm] |
I had hoped to do a sequenced, scale model re-enactment of the WTC collapse complete with Building 7 and liberal use of thermite tonight. Unfortunately work hasn't cooperated and I am stuck in a conference call with Korea until after 9PM.
So instead I will attempt a model re-enactment of Flight 93, complete with debris falling 8 miles away from the crash site. It will happen after 10PM, though. |

I will be having a picnic in my backyard this Saturday afternoon. I'm ordering live lobster and blue crabs tomorrow, so let me know soon if you would like me to get you anything. Lobsters should cost about $12. |

| Shadowclans Gift Exchange SATURDAY |
[Jan. 9th, 2008|11:21 am] |
This Saturday at 6PM I will serve dinner, followed by a Mystery Gift Exchange. Everyone in attendance who brings a mystery gift with a cryptic hint as to its contents will get to compete for the gift of their choice. Competition rules vary gift by gift, and the final outcome will be decided by Dave.

| Magua Dance Party Friday |
[Nov. 19th, 2007|01:02 pm] |
I will have a vegetarian post-Thanksgiving feast at 7PM Friday, followed by a Magua Dance Party.
Wilhelm Reich, a tragic figure in American mad science died 50 years ago. In his will, his secret notes were to be sealed and released exactly 50 years later, which will be this coming weekend.
So for the dance party there will be a Reichian experiment. An orgone accumulator picture frame has been constructed and attached to the head of Magua. This will serve as an orgone projector. I will take infrared photos of the dancing as the evening progresses using my Coolpix 995 with the hot mirror removed. This is very serious science. The effects of alcohol consumption on the orgone projection will be correlated with dancing intensity. Test subjects will be fed vegetarian food prior to the experiment.

| Party Sunday |
[Sep. 7th, 2007|12:58 pm] |
Last weekend I had a camping party in the most inaccessible part of a swamp that I could find.
15 people showed up for it, and everyone was very well fed with plenty of fish and fresh vegetables. I've been working on getting better cookware and ingredients in my backpacks, but with 15 people to carry the load, you can really make a tasty meal in the middle of a peat bog!
( Swamp Party )
Some people started a forest fire across the river from the swamp we were camping in, and the police wanted to question us. They flew a helicopter over our campfire, and they questioned one carload of us who left early, but they never entered the swamp.
For the last 2 years I have had a September 11 memorial performance at my September Sunday parties, fraught with technical difficulties due to the exploding jet aircraft.
This upcoming Sunday is September 9. What might have happened if the terrorists had decided to attack two days earlier? I will explore this question around 9PM this Sunday.

I am in the middle of casting the Ammonium Perchlorate, aluminum, epoxy engine cores for Berzerker this year. With a little luck I will be able to throw a bowling ball farther than John or Jeff!
I plan to camp on Grand Island in Munising July 14-16 and be on the stampsands July 17.
Please let me know what materials you need for any projects going on and I will see what I can do.
If you need me for anything I will be at lattitude N47,26.200' W88,11.750' in the old yellow canvas tent. You can't miss it.

| Party Sunday |
[Jun. 29th, 2007|10:46 am] |
Show up early to make ballista bolts for Pennsic.
Scope out the performance area for Scrummage Fest 07
Eat food at 8PM
Dance and party all night
For anyone looking for luxury accomodations at the Berzerker in 3 weeks:
http://dapple-gray.com/
I plan to camp on the sands from July 17-22. There is still room for your tent!
I'll soon start work on an ammonium perchlorate based "K - size" rocket engine design and hope to have a bunch of them at Berzerker. To make a rocket from one, you put a 16 pound bowling ball on the end of a 5 foot stick, and strap the engine behind. These will compete with the bowling ball cannon and the Trebuchet for silly ways to toss large projectiles.
If anyone is interested in meeting in Munising on July 14, I'll be going on a 3 day hike on Grand Island. I have plenty of camping gear. |

| Sunday Party |
[May. 4th, 2007|09:41 am] |
May 6, being the first Sunday of the month, I will have a party. Being close to May 5, the only Mexican holiday I know of, I will prepare a Mexican feast. Dinner at 7-10PM. Mexican food is easy to prepare in large quantities, so come hungry!
My tamales take 2 days to cook. Is it possible to make tamales in a pressure cooker? |

| Saturday Night Party |
[Apr. 26th, 2007|01:55 pm] |
Normally I have a party on the first Sunday of every month.
This weekend I will try having a Saturday night party, just to see how that goes.
So stop by Saturday April 28 after 9PM.
Sunday May 6, the regular party schedule resumes, with a Mexican feast the day after Cinco de Mayo. Mexico really needs some better holidays! |

| April Fools Party |
[Mar. 29th, 2007|12:42 pm] |
I will have an April Fools party this Sunday. Shadowclans meeting at 7PM, Dinner served around 8PM, April foolery, bonfire, gaming, hot tubbing, dancing and stuff to follow.
New Years was held around April 1 until Pope Gregory 13 initiated the Gregorian calendar. Some places like England didn't bother to change the date of New Years and became "April Fools".
Eventually this fool's holiday evolved into pranking by sticking paper fish or signs on peoples' backs without their knowledge so they looked foolish.
This has evolved into playing pranks on people, such as nitrogen triiodide squirted in a keylock or the classic bucket full of acid propped above a partly open door. But these pranks are limited to being perpetrated only before noon on April first to limit revenge attacks for killed loved ones.

I am in Seoul, wandering around Insadong tonight. So there won't be a party at my house tomorrow night. But feel free to come by anyway for the Shadowclans meeting. Isard is crashing at my house this week and he really wants to beat you up with sticks, so stop by and challenge him. |
