The Word "Snark" means "Death". As in "Hunting for the Snark".
It is an old English word - maybe even OLD English but likely only
1800's by a Math master in Logic.

Correct.

Its rather amusing watching the little kids hunt for and zoom in on
tiny pieces of something and blow it up as a major deal. Similar to
watching them hunting for a twisted thread in a large sail and making
a big deal about it. (Grin) But hey..it gives them something to do,
shows the readers what age and alzheimers causes and makes em easy to
plink into the bozo bin.

Btw..as I mentioned many times over the years....plink rather than
plonk is the term I choose, due to its simularity to the sound one
hears when flicking a booger into a steel trash can. There is no
Plonk sound..at best..if you listen very very closely...you may hear a
very gentle "plink" as it strikes the side and then oozes downwards
into the rest of the trash.

I used to go plinking with my .22 as a kid. The sound the tiny bullet
going through the beer can (real tin/steel back then) was "plink".

When you fire a 22 through a supressed 22 self loader into the back of
a skull, its more..."thud" followed by a bigger rustling sound as they
collapse.

If you really _were_ plinking these guys, they wouldn't be here to
harass us, now would they? Thinking of them as boogers isn't as nice,
but I suppose it's more legal.

Ive put Ball into the kill file some 773 times so far. "so your "if
you Really_were" verbage is utter bull****, Larry. Sorry my
friend...but there is only so much I can do, other than simply drive
up to Sacto and terminate him. Or have it done.

Im not as young and implusive as I use to be. While adding yet
another corpse to my memories wont keep me awake at night, I dont even
hunt much anymore and Ball hasnt reached the level (yet) needed to
take yet another life. Its not that he is human (he isnt)...he is an
entire weekend project and a few hundred dollars and a great deal of
planning. So I simply laugh at him, plink him and go on with my life.

Now the next time you go through there, if you want to cap his ass, Id
be happy to add more Free Stuff to your pile, along with replacing
whatever ammo it takes. High Energy Exothermic materials may take a
bit longer to replace. Shrug



It means its the effort of a moment, a semi concious effort to remove
a niggling bit of temporary irritation, a faint itch from ones nostril
and is accomplished in a moment, without much thought and forgotten
about mere moments later.

Yes, that's why I plonk 'em quickly (and wish you did more rapidly.)

I go on Usenet between doing other things now days. Work has picked up
a bit, and I got home around 8ish or so last night. This is
Sunday...right? Blink blink....I think its Sunday. Been another long
rough week. Took care of 5 clients and prepped and loaded 15 TONs of
steel into the back of a United Rental flatbed truck over the course
of 3 days, along with drilling and deburring some (40) 3x4' 1" steel
plates. I logged 63.5 hours and in return, was paid some $2103.17 for
the various service calls and labor.

Most of the labor was time spent continuing to clearing out my
buddies side yard of all the "scrap", while doing it on a fork lift
that is almost toast. I know there is a plugged filter on it
somewhere..I simply..cant find it. The dirtball piece of **** needs a
pressure washing badly..or a copy of the owners manual to find said
filter. I know its a TMC forklift..but no model or data plate can be
found. That moving and "scraping" paid me a whopping $400...about $10
an hour. But he is doing the best he can do at the moment and Ill see
more later. On the plus side, he gave me a good working Cadillac
Tracer to put on my big lathe, a nice 3/8" capable Miller plasma
cutter with both hand torch and plasma table torch and a optical table
that the torch runs on. Draw the print, center the line under the
sensor and hit "cut" and it traces the line and cuts the metal while
following the line. So its not exactly a "wash" for helping him.
Besides..he has been a good friend for 15 + yrs, and Id have helped
him for free.

He is getting $180/ton for the "scrap"...which is double the $90/ton
of regular scrap yards here. The buyer wants all the rounds, I beams,
cuts and whatnot we can give him and is willing to pay for them. I a,
filling a 8 x 23 x 4' drop-off, with chips, cuttings and odd bits of
metal..about 3' deep so far...but thats $40/ton at a scrap yard.

Ive not dumped my cameras yet, so will be adding to the album later
today. These are from a couple weeks ago.
