It's tough, and as you get older, your baggage gets more voluminous. At least I'm not as bad as my Pop was, at least there's a definable amount of space (2 12' Pack Rat containers)... where I'm likely to end up, is sooo small, gonna be a challenge being cooped up with no land for 6 months... but I'll be in range to feed the farm cats, and get them given away... they get smarter with each new generation

VicariousE 2014-12-05 09:58:47

Lol, I actually watched Space Cat Cuties, or whatever that anime was :) Bodacious Space Pirates turned out to be another (better) good one.

Yeah, trials and tribulations... plus I found out I may have to pay a tax, for simply leaving the state of NJ

VicariousE 2014-12-05 13:06:03

No wonder I kept my head down for so long... as soon as you try to do business in this state, all the vultures come out of the woodwork, to try and take advantage.

I broke the lease yesterday, and am waiting to sign another one, in a much cleaner place, it all depends on whether the closing/full payment for the farm, takes place, as it could be delayed or even cancelled :| My sis wasn't too clear on the details, so I bought her a big cup of coffee and flat out asked a little while ago. I'm not on the dole or have a steady job like my siblings, my situation is a bit more tenuous :\ And since I'm self employed, the new potential landlord is wary of renting on a month by moth basis, so I gotta cough up the full lease amount... could've had one my siblings co sign, but it didn't seem like a preferred option to the real estate agent/ landlord.

I'm sure they make UV C lights that are fiber optic/ small and remote, so you can kill mold/bacteria in hard to reach places... it won't kill mold that's under the surface, but if it's kept dry, it's a good solution, short of starting over from scratch. They use lights like that to sterilize water, as it passes by the light fixture. A few companies make units that go into air conditioning ducts, so any lingering humidity is free of bugs

I used Hi8 and studio cameras to capture the action, then edited it (via cassettes and printed titles mostly, but still looked plenty legit) - weddings, consumer research, bands, non profit TV shows. That was a long time ago, and using much more primitive gear than is available now.

Yeah, you're describing the best way to fix the problem: replace what's susceptible or infected w/ mold. The UV C lights are expensive, but yield results best with recirculating air, water treatment... normally that band of light doesn't penetrate the atmosphere or normal glass...

VicariousE 2014-12-09 17:35:21

Ugh, must be like eating secondhand road kill... with a lil MSG, everything tastes tasty
There's a few slow cook cat reciepes I wouldn't mind trying.. though cats usually eat cats or other euthanized/foundonroaddead animals, via modern cat kibble :|

VicariousE 2014-12-10 16:19:41

My Pop spent years hoarding, so did his mother (though not nearly as bad). In the 2 years since his passing, it's been a cleanup effort. Nah, I'm a legit loafer with a bum back - problem is the local economy, which is almost all 'service industry' like flipping burgers, managing those who flip said burgers..

Bleu cheese? Wisconsin is the cheesiest state in the union. The top 6 or 7 most popular cheeses are available at most non Walmart/Tesco food shops, the other are usually stocked by Italian, Greek, food supply shops. If you store bread under the highest point of a roof, mold is reduced...

Thank you very much, honored producer of content :) But what about free will? After the peak of the new moon this month, ancient records and prophecy say the world will undergo a massive earthquake, lose what little is left of our EM field (the the poles begin to shift), and quite a few people on eastern shores will be quickly flooded, also a bigger planetary tilt/clocks, calendars, meaningless, as the day is 25 1/2 hours...

The Mayans were correct, but were 2 years too early, small error considering the advanced math, or else, the info was made to appear that way - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plausible_deniability or junk science... idk, hope for the best, expect the worst I guess.

VicariousE 2014-12-11 11:59:35

More like over a dozen metric tons, really. Still quite bit here, but it matters to me less and less.

No idea, sounds like strong stuff though.

VicariousE 2014-12-12 07:28:48

Not so many parts, but... enough to fabricate small things. Trying to salvage the 7 basic tools and such.
But yeah, lots of comic books, VHS tapes, record albums, stuff to play and view said things.

I'm still in the garage (rental house) next door, since the channel she's on matches her brother's wifi... so I'm pretty much on a bare minimum NG rotation here - vote 5, check this page and split.

I just hate that it reeks of stale beer in here, what a bunch of miscreants |: It would've been nice/practical to store some of my stuff here, but I'll be lucky if this laptop and monitor are here next time I drop by

VicariousE 2014-12-12 17:48:37

I've had to take to reading Asterix lately, since my 2 southern neighbors are sharing the same wifi channel... along with half the neighborhood, whoever the fuck they are! VHS? Just watch them every other year, or just fast forward and rewind them - the biggest killer is heat and/or temperature fluctuations. Heat causes the electrons to leave the tape. When they went back to remaster MASH the movie, they had to heat the film, just so the audio would play back :\

Oh man, for the past 6 hours, it's been nothing but gas, gas, gas, diarrhea, gas, gas, and it all smells like the weird pasta dish I had this evening - not good, no sleep. Every 5-15 minutes, a major fart, then the cramps started around 3:30 this morning. Not happy.

VicariousE 2014-12-13 08:24:52

Considering she's renting there cheap, and I've kept her lawn mowed at no additional cost....

VicariousE 2014-12-13 11:36:27

Tummy's been fucked since Wednesday, either due to the new computer parts (there was some kinda gritty dust on the kitchen table afterwards) or the crap food since then. I don't like light brown poop :|

I'm drinking this Gatorade that smells like floor cleaner... it's been in the fridge since the summer, sigh.

VicariousE 2014-12-16 02:23:30

I eventually found a bottle of generic stuff, and that did the trick (over the course of yesterday, I spiked everything I drank with it)... probably used the last perceived bottle, boiling hot dogs... it seems to help idk, also use a spoonful in the slightly drained/diluted sauerkraut too. Gotta watch though, strips the enamel off your teeth a bit quicker than soda does.

Hm, thankfully no record beaten, though in my experience, probably the fartiest on record, thank Gob no cramps at least. About a dozen times on the bowl daily avg. for past 3 days, some false alarms.

VicariousE 2014-12-16 17:54:10

2 months ago, before my sis (who trained as a nutritionist) got here, I made most of my meals at home... I haven't had hot dogs in a while actually, but yeah, I'm way behind on fruits and veggies :(

Just hope it isn't C-Diff. I haven't leaked like this since I drank that crap for a CAT scan of my insides... no one said it was cancerous, or would turn my turds into a waterfall for a week |:

VicariousE 2014-12-17 00:16:05

Transplants? I thought you basically ate a poop milkshake made from a healthier/more resistant persons feces... you mean, like from colon to colon?!

VicariousE 2014-12-17 00:38:56

Yeah my (even sicker) sis were just talking about it... it's radical stuff, tons of variables and extra genetic factors involved, you know, those bacteria we pick up in specific areas, or from parents. Smashing stuff :)

VicariousE 2014-12-17 15:55:17

Rib(s) were fine up until a vigorous rubdown 2 weeks ago, but it's back to no pain at this time... the loosening of the stuff in the area of the fractures probably helped a bit, as does the occasional heavy labor in moving things.

I never moved into the house pictured, I'm still on the farm.... waiting for news. It looks like the buyer is still interested, but the 'timeline' of events, is off - in fact, we were supposed to be out of here today, so the buyers could have 48 hours of uninterrupted access, free of the sellers (my sis and I) hovering around.

I called the lady today and told her I couldn't commit to a 6 month lease at this time, since I have no idea when or if we're closing (selling). A 2 week delay in soil samples (due to rain) really pushed everything ahead by leaps and bounds...

That brick building (barn) is right behind the farm house... though we never used the front door of the farm house to enter and egress, since it faces the road...

VicariousE 2014-12-17 16:17:37

Oh, I was careful not to put too much stress on it.. 2 fractures 2 many, but mild exercise is much better than if it were taped or bandaged tight, in fact it would be more risky, as pneumonia could set from restricted breathing.

..that's about as succinct and as accurate a description, as I've ever heard.

Hm, kinda holding off on that until after the farm's clean of 'unwanted stuff', and since it looks like they're renegotiating the price of the farm, no telling how much or little I'll get. I was told about a real little place in a very rural part of PA for about $30,000, but I don't even have that kinda money now

...and the costs of living keep going up and up for me. Certainly this big and hurried push to clean up and get out, has cost me way too much already, I will not be as generous in the future |:

VicariousE 2014-12-17 17:28:12

Eh, the internet's a mug's game man, it's like trying out for the major leagues, odds are totes mathmaticaly nada. Newspapers, radio, TV and cable (and lobbying) is where the smart adbux go

Just got done watching Starship Troopers with Paul Verhoven, commentating about a Fascist bomb going off across the street in Holland, while his family was having dinner during WWII... he was really small, but he remembered the unburied bodies in the street. Perhaps this last paragraph is on subject?
