So the kids of engineers need to see and learn from things other than
kid books, and parents can't afford to buy expensive books like I
was able as an engineer.

I was shocked to see the price on the Skolnik 'RADAR Handbook' I own.

i don't have an accurate count of the books, since there are boxes
stacked almost to the ceiling with books that I haven't inventoried. A
barcode scanner makes that easier, on newer books. :)

I had in excess of 6,000 before I left California - it was to the
point where if I got any more books, I'd need to build an extra room
on the house. When I moved home to Arizona, I gave away about 3,000
of them - now I'm back up to the original number, I think. Close to
it.
My library shelves are full, and there are books & boxes of books
scattered though six buildings. There are some in my truck, too.

I'm at the point where the policy is that if a new book is to come
in, an old book must go to make space.
I'm not doing to well at sticking with it.

Where can I find plans for those, Mikey? I've just been building
floor-to-ceiling bookcases for every inch of wallspace, and still I
have 6 boxes of books to go. I've already read 'em and they're not
the reference type. Y'know, not John Ringo, Richard Marcinko, John
Ross, or Thomas Sowell.

I had a friend over last summer, helping me get "organized". I
needed the help. But she could not grasp that I will have books on
top of the book in the bookcase, "because they go in that section" -
even if there is not room on the shelf for them.

Is your security clearance high enough to get into area 52?

I lucked into a bunch of old wood pharmacy shelving a while back.
They are great for my databooks & reference books.

Tonopah or Salt Lake? I guess it doesn't matter. The answer's no.

Will too! I have access to the 3 technologies needed to make it
myself: cats, tape, and buttered toast.

Here's the secret formula:

--snip--
Asking the mystic Oracle...

Question: If you drop a buttered piece of bread, it will fall on the
floor butter side down. If a cat is dropped from a window or some
other high and towering place, it will land on its feet.

But if you attach a buttered piece of bread, butter side up to a cat's
back and toss them both out the window? Will the cat land on its feet?
Or will the butter splat on the ground?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

Even if you are too lazy to do the experiment yourself you should be
able to deduce the obvious result. The laws of butterology demand that
the butter must hit the ground, and the equally strict laws of feline
aerodynamics demand that the cat can not smash its furry back.

If the combined construct were to land, nature would have no way to
resolve this paradox. Therefore, it simply does not fall.

That's right, you clever mortal, (well, as clever as a mortal can get)
you have discovered the secret of *ANTIGRAVITY*! A buttered cat will,
when released, quickly move to a height where forces of cat-twisting
and butter repulsion are in equilibrium. This equilibrium point can be
modified by scraping off some of the butter, or removing some of the
cat's limbs (not recommended, as it produces an unfavourably high
demand for fresh cats), allowing descent.

Most of the civilized species of the Universe already use this very
principle to drive their ships while within a planetary system. The
loud humming heard by most sighters of UFOs, is, in fact, the purring
of several hundred tabbies.

The one obvious danger is, of course, that if the cats manage to eat
the bread off their backs they will instantly plummet. Of course the
cats *will* land on their feet, but this generally doesn't do them
much good at all, since shortly after they make their graceful landing
several tons of red-hot starship and ****ed off aliens come crashing
down on top of them.

Close, but most are just 'Ornery' instead of 'Old'. Some are still

Maybe I should start building these to decrease farm labor times and
significantly increase farm income...after they get done playing.

Ummm, I think they sold the mini-van to send their kids to

Some still think they are teenagers. :(

I like Tim Allen in movies. I'm not much for comedies but he (and
everyone else) were absolutely great in Big Trouble. Crom, what a
great flick. That little sweetie, Zooey Deschanel, was both hot and a
great deadpan actress. Martha Stewart did a marvelous job as the
psychedelic frog. Sofia Vergara was the hottest illegal alien maid
I've ever seen in my life.

I haven't seen that one, but I did see his Santa Clause & Santa

Had you seen the movie, you'd be laughing now. One of the scenes has
Stanley Tucci frying on frogjuice and hearing the dog (with Martha's
face) barking "arugula". You had to be there.

I can't stand the extreme volume they use at the theaters anymore.
If I run across it on DVD or an online movie service I'll check it out.

BTW, Zooey Deschanel stars in the TV show, 'New Girl'
