Anyway, i'll find plenty to do in the garage...

Like when i turned 16, i got a moped, a Honda Amigo from the father of my kid sister.
She's turning 13 now, so thinking about restoring an old Honda Amigo to give to her when she turns 16.



Or get an old dirtbike for myself, or some kind of 4x4 vehicle, like a VW Iltis


Things with possible practical use... that don't cost to much. Maaaaybe a 944..
those are fun and reasonably affordable to own and run... but it must be a good one.
944 projects can be just as dangerous in terms of cost.

"Saw a chit mind reader at a gig last night....

Mind reader: Think of a card, any card.
Me: OK
Mind reader: Visualize it in your mind.
Me: OK
Mind reader: Is it the nine of clubs?
Me: No
Mind reader: Ace of spades?
Me: No
Mind reader: What is it then?
Me: 'Congratulations on your new baby'"

Markus you had better learn to get in touch with your inner Rick, I can see you needing to kick a lot of ass!

You know I have already picked up a few great pointers on how to handle future sons in law from your stories of your situation, Rick. Will likely come in handy. Fast, hard and final was it?

Well, judging by the forecast you better get on that hooked up stationary bike, Stijn.

You forgot violent. As Dr. you cant dispense justice like I can. Just one word of advice, when you hit someone, your target is actually the back of their head, not the face, and the shortest distance between two points (your hand and the back of their head) is a straight line so the face just gets in the way.

Brilliant. I will be sure to remember that, Rick. Less visible damage to the back of the head as compared to the face I suppose.

I thought of that,
but i think i'll use more of my own energy trying to get them to run,
then i would get out of it from the mill. Cat's are inherently lazy. they sleep ALL the time.

Just go for the kidneys Markus... leaves no marks, hurts like a mofo and they will piss blood for a week.
That's the kind of lesson they will remember.

Yeah kidneys are a good one with one exception, they won't see it coming. One of the best deturants you can have is the visual horror they will see every time the person sees you. That and I won't hit a person in the back or when they are down. It is a pita to pick someone up and hold them up to hit them again but someone has to do it

If ya punch their lights out, they might bump their head on the way down, and have loss of memory.

Kidneys, they stay awake to feel the pain, and during that painfull episode you just stand around, make em look at ya and talk to them..
The week of pain that follows will just etch that memory in their mind forever...
Afterwards you can even make em cringe by hearing your voice over the phone...

It's not hitting them from the back if you stand to the side of them and apply with a right hook.

busy making a single wire electrical schematic of the house electrics
the whole setup will be checked by an independant auditor to certify the PV install so i can get my green certificates.


Now the thing is, the electrics of the house are a bit of a mess. wouldn't call it unsafe, but it's just not done logically and a pain to document.

Haven't done an electrical schematic since early high school, about 20 years ago.. It might be a bit crude the way i do it, but hey, i'm still busy renovating the house, he'll have to cut me some slack there.. the PV setup is done right, that's all he needs to worry about.

Maybe the 45 might help him see that there is no problem certifying my setup.
