Ahh Jeff, you made my morning with these. Hilarious, educational, and delicious all in one shot.

Although I was disappointed that your drawing was just an explanation of a reflection, at first I thought you were telling me how to construct an Archimedes death ray :evil:

lowercasebill

the year in review .. in sort of chronological order.

Sundown

Renaissance Man it has to be you Mr. Stikeman!

I marvel at your artistic undertakings with pumpkins and meats!

stike

i have some thoughts on the death ray. :laugh: i think they bungled the first effort, trying to set a fixed array. they finally got it right by having the best automated tracking devices available at the time, humans, do it. hahaha

i really think it was more about blinding and fear than actually setting anything on fire....

anyway... otherwise i love that show. though i wish kari byron would stop emailing me. i have a wife and kids....

stike

there we go. you and flapoolman got the idea.
nice pics

stike

excellent pics. that's what we want.

(the plumbing looks scary. hahha)

stike

"I marvel at your artistic undertakings with pumpkins and meat"

lowercasebill

i took one look at your post last night and thought ,, no one is going to post pics in this thread "tough act to follow" i was going to reply with some wise ass remark to that affect but decided to drink more champagne instead..
woke up in default mode [screw it] all the pics except the smoking elf strung up from the fire truck are special to me
thanks for starting this thread
happy new year
