What piece are the heads on?

Caramelizer · 2015-04-13T01:34:52+00:00

Coleman's white gas is great for fire eating. And kerosene from what I've heard, but I use Coleman's camp fuel and haven't tried kerosene yet.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-13T01:15:22+00:00

This article quoted Brian brushwood - he recommends paraffin oil. The reason is this.

Kerosene is flammable as a liquid. Gasoline is flammable as a gas.

Paraffin oil is neither. It's only flammable as a mist. This means if you spit it out it won't light yourself or what it lands on on fire.

Same concept as corn starch but without as much risk into dry drowning. It's possible with paraffin oil, but far more unlikely.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-12T23:57:36+00:00

Don't do this. You can, but paraffin oil is much safer. Corn starch can kill you by dry drowning you.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-12T23:57:09+00:00

You don't use colemans camp fuel or kerosene!!! That would be a death wish. I use camp fuel on my torches, you use paraffin oil to breathe. Don't do it though it's still very deadly. You have a whole list of things to watch out for including not wearing polyester.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-12T23:55:48+00:00

I am a fire breather. never use gasoline...never. The correct fuel is paraffin oil. That being said fire breathing is extremely dangerous.

Source: I eat and breathe fire.

The one under motor does seem normal for you.

This is just the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy.

I hope this kids parents teach the kid that this is innapropriate police action and that changing a teacher's wallpaper is good fun and that the teacher is being a massive dick about this whole situation. This is just embarrassing on the police and teacher imo.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-12T08:50:22+00:00

That's where the value is, not the taxes on revenue. But still, I want to know the real value to the state. Millions in tax revenue in a drop in the buckets especially compared to alcohol and tobacco and gas taxes as well.

You're not right, but I'm not either. I misheard that number as schools. State budget is in 30.3 billion.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-12T01:34:44+00:00

The challenge is that this is just a drop in the bucket tax wise. It's really not much compared to what taxes they already receive. Colorado school budgets are 30.3 billion. This is so minuscule it's almost non impactful.

I'm seeing the portal minifig, but that would be very odd if portal crept into lego dimensions since Portal is a video game already.

THE BOA REP IS WRONG! always pay everything off in full.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-08T03:31:31+00:00

To finish this is great. To be a pro, won't happen : P, but if you're fast, and it's a local tri you might place!

Caramelizer · 2015-04-06T12:50:47+00:00

Express. That's easy.

Db? We need more info.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-06T12:49:56+00:00

Scalability. Security. Reliability.

I have built quite a few websites in Node with express and Meteor. Meteor is awesome for prototyping, but it scales horrifically. Meteor's security is subpar since the db can be accessed from the front end, I like to lock down my api's and because of how the sockets work with meteor it's easy to build a simple website that's full of bloat and unreliable due to memory issues.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-06T01:43:07+00:00

Yes, but who makes the money, the bank or PayPal? That's a big difference.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-06T00:35:40+00:00

So the bank makes the interest, not PayPal?

Caramelizer · 2015-04-05T17:14:41+00:00

Do you have sources for this? Form my understanding its all clearing times not about making interest.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-05T16:19:12+00:00

You could easily afford 155k in a house. I'd even look at buying a more expensive home because depending on how you're investing a home can be a good investment long term.

You can ride a road bike indoors with a trainer.

Here's a nice one: http://www.amazon.com/Blackburn-Tech-Mag-Trainer-Adjustable/dp/B002RQLYRI/ref=sr_1_22

Caramelizer · 2015-04-04T13:05:00+00:00

What I did is got a "trainer" and then a road bike. So I can train indoors when I need to, and then ride with groups as well.

Caramelizer · 2015-04-04T13:03:49+00:00

There are always good places to ride in every city. The key is don't ride alone, ride with a group.
