Fucking big ass-cars sounds like it would be rather awkward.

WTF happened to my typing cursor? =O

Well, I feel stupid.

I bought a straight razor today to practice sharpening on, as apposed to sharpening on the Wade & Butcher razor my friend gave me last week. I brought it home, got out a bottle of rubbing alcohol and dropped the whole thing in to sanitize it, handle and all.

.... 3 hours later I come back, and the alcohol has has stripped the finish off the handle and tarnished the blade black. Now I get to use my dremel to take the tarnish off and polish it back up before I can ever sharpen the damn thing. Lovely, and it had such a nice scratch free mirror finish to begin with.

Live and learn I suppose.

In Sweeny Todd when Jonny Depp started singing that love song to his razors did it make your eyes well up just a little?

I still haven't seen that yet... Is this what you're talking about? Mildly amusing, but it really bugs me because the razor I bought today WAS that shiny and polished looking. It turns out that the handle is made of wood (not plastic as I originally though), and they used black stain to make it a solid color of black. That's what leached out and stained the blade itself.

Depression (along with alcoholism) runs in my family, which is why I've always distanced myself from straight razors. But since I've really gotten into sharpening knives here lately, I'm really more curious to see if I can take an old dull one and actually sharpen it up for daily use.

And I'm actually quite surprised at how simple it is to sharpen one. It turns out there is actually an angle guide built into them... just lay the blade flat against the stone and start sharpening, the back edge of the blade holds the entire implement at just the right angle to sharpen. You can't do that with a normal knife.

Actually, now that I think about it, I'm more surprised that Tim Burton didn't at least TRY to differentiate the character design of Miss Lovet from Bellatrix Lestrange in the Harry Potter movies. It's like Helena Bonham Carter just walked off one set and walked onto the other.

That song is irritating enough as it is; now imagine having it in your head for TWELVE CONSECUTIVE HOURS. I want to drive a stake through my head at this point.

This should help.

It's like my new favorite song aside from the Caramel Dansen.

And yes, I know I'm going to hell for it.

just can't get enough...

She's Helena Bonham Carter. As talented an actress as she is unless you put her in a monkey suit she's going to keep playing the same person.

Wait... so she's done that look in more than those two movies?

Okay, not sure what to say to that.

I was driving a full size van, then my dad needed to bring stuff to the dump so he took the van and left me with an Explorer.

I swapped my dad's SUV for my motorcycle today.

Oh, and SUV. Nevermind, I hate them too.

me too. they are probably the most useless vehicles on earth. I mean, seriously, they are put on the same frames as pick up trucks, but don't have a truck bed, they roll over on a small grade and generally look moronic. Just get a pick up truck or a minivan.

and what a beautiful ride home it was!

All that AND you're getting phenomenal gas mileage?

70 m.p.g.
I also only spent $5.41 to put gas into it.
now we're pretty hippyish what with my fiancee having a Camry Hybrid (which only gets 40mpg ^_^)

I don't like you anymore, man. You suck.

The Lutheran church allows sex for married priests, and we date back centuries. It's not really liberal by today's standards to allow priests sex after marriage.

Funk was joshing...
because BeFell is VERY conservative Republican.

Although, that won't stop me from warming him up when he's alone and away from his wife.

I think I've only ever driven an SUV once in my life, and that was our church deacon's Chevy Suburban. It was like (for me at least) driving the real life equivalent of the Canyonero from the Simpsons... and I learned to drive in my dad's Ford F-250 pickup truck with a bed camper on the back.

*farts in your general direction*

I just learned today that accountants and lawyers can plagiarize their asses off and not get sued for it. In fact they are very likely to get sued if they don't do it. Just another example of the things you learn in college running perpendicular to the real world.

Depends, are you going to freeze the dough after you pat it out into cookies or bake them?

Happy St. George's Day!

You know, the Saint that the Vatican says can't exist because the story is so unrealistic - yes, dragons are unrealistic, but immaculate conception and resurrection isn't...

(So, cue a day of Sun readers saying the French won't let us celebrate our Saint's day, the Daily Mail saying the EU are trying to erradicate British culture (but not Saint David, Andrew or Patrrick, eh?), and the Express saying Princess Diana slay Prince Phillip's favourite dragon, so she had to be killed - Mo Fayed says so.)

I can cook meals , I'm not much of a baker, Pie crust is about the best I know how to do.
Cookies I just buy at the store.

I hope your doing well.

my mom has an explorer, my grandfather at one point had an expedition (Ford isn't very imaginative, the explorer is on the same frame as the ranger, the expedition is on the same frame as the F-150), so I've driven plenty of SUVs (and they fail)

My dad also taught me how to drive with his E-150 van (which, ironically enough, is on the same frame as an F-150, go figure) which is a full sized van (not a mini van) and is a bitch to park, seriously. The same week I got my permit, he got some fishing boat and had me drive on the highway my first day to go look at it and do paperwork, adn then the next week he had me drive the van down there and bring the boat back, no a trailer, on the highway, with the van. I learned quick.

In other learning news, I taught my fiancee how to ride my motorcycle today at the local high school parking lot. She passed her permit test this afternoon, and she even learned quick enough to get to 3rd gear and she drove us back home (like 3 blocks) with me on the back. I'm quite proud of her. She was going around in circles until the sun went down, it was really exciting. Now she's excited. I am still insisting she take the course I took, because I'm almost positive I don't know everything, not to mention you get to lower your insurance with it and waive your road test, so yeah, professional instruction and no DMV shite to deal with. But she wants to just learn everything and then go and take the test at the DMV, so I told her, if she fails her license test the first time, she'll just have to take the course, if not, she doesn't have to.

3 gallon tank. There was maybe a 1.5 gallons of gas in, little more little less? Gas here is $3.65
sure my cruising range is only about 210 miles (assuming of course I don't go up any hills or deal with construction/city traffic), but you can't argue with 70mpg
