Re: LabRat420's little Kali grow.

I'd like to work, but with their unfair laws pertaining to mj, i can't pass the test !! Bunch of shit, i say !! Stupid people !!

I'm thinking of biting the bullet and quitting for a while so I can grab a steady driving job after this short-term one is over. Or I may just go with a urine kit to get a pass. You get to go behind a curtain and you've still got your clothes on so I don't see a problem with that except for the $60 or so for the kit. Two hours pay so what the hell, it's a good investment.

I'll just keep a spare kit in my lunch box,(small cooler), in case of a random test or if I have a minor accident 'cause they test you if you have an "incident".

Gotta make some bux or go commercial.

Sure love your crazy journal LabRat Something for every one.

I decided very early on that I didn't want to drive a big rig. I worked for a logging outfit when I was 14. It was in the Ozark Mountains. I was a billet peeler. One day I had to ride in a big ass logging rig, fully loaded, We would pick up speed going down one mountain to make it up the next one and as we topped one some silly ass station wagon pulled out right in front of us. It was a bump to us, but that station wagon just exploded in parts. We kinda found parts of the driver. Decided I didn't want drive a rig right then
Your a heartier man than me mate.

You and are I the same size exactly. 30 inch jeans. just another meaningless comment.

Hit a small deer at 60 a couple of years ago and it exploded! Wasn't even any chunks big enough for the stew-pot!

Barely dented the license plate on the old Kenworth. lol

Off to bed for a couple of hours so I'll C'ya L8r.

Re: LabRat420's little Kali grow.

Drain tanks regularly?

Yeah, but it was caused by corrosion from a product leak over the winter. About 3 tonnes of ammonia leaked out and sat under the truck for months and it attacks brass bushings and other stuff. Not my fault, bad valve. Big hassle with the powers that be but I didn't have to deal with it so it's all good.

Around here they have been known to hit herds of deer.

In the early 90s I read about a guy out west somewhere that nailed a big bull elk. Thing managed to get up... and charge. Repeatedly. According to the bit I read, by the time it finally died the guy was at the rear of his sleeper wondering if the horns would be as painful as they looked, lol.

Only question I had was how it got UP into the truck since they are a climb.

Back in the fall '76 I was working construction in Banff, Alberta and staying with my boss at the Gateway Inn east of the gates.

I had a '76 Yamaha 400YZ(?) (still have the receipt somewhere and could post it for fun!), moto-crosser I had bought about 6 months before and was hauled to Banff with us. It was my only transport other than Jim's van.

On the way back from Banff on the bike it was pissing rain and I had the bike wound out to it's top speed of /58 mph.

With no goggles I had my face tilted down so the raindrops would splatter on the helmet and not rip my eyes out.

I could see the road about 75 yards in front of me with the low level light I got off a magneto electrical system and the driving rain. Every time a vehicle passed me going the other way it almost drove me off my seat but I was ready and leaned well into it.

As I rounded a corner at the top of a rise I really twisted the wick as there were but a few miles to go. When I descended into the last valley the colder temperatures caused my goggles to fog up to the point that I had to rip them off my face and with squinted, tear-streaming, eyes I raced into the final stretch and felt, not saw, the lives around me. Just before I leaned hard into the next left, I looked back and saw a herd of Elk all over the highway I jus passed.

The shere luck of the occasion didn't hit me for a while, but later has directed my thoughts about God, chance and Karma.

The last thirty years since has me thinking that it's all Karma. It doesn't matter what kind of diety you pray to, it's all about how you treat your fellow human-beings and has very little to do with your church attendance.

If you try to push my ideas on your friends, you better not let them know where it came from!

I stole it from the '70s !

Love, peace, and mad cow for all!

Mine was being a stupid teenager (NOTE to Mods: teenager defined as 18-19, lol) and smoking something interesting and new to this humble one while painstakingly and carefully skirting a cliff-top that must have been all of nine or ten inches wide and covered with ice. So we'd worked our way all the way around to the "cool" side (best view) when my buddy realized that he'd forgot to grab his baggie from the truck. I decided to wait on him to work his way back around (20 minutes), then down the path to the truck (15 minutes), and back. Then I remembered that my cigarettes were also in the truck. So I turned around to start inching my way back along the ledge...

And promptly stepped onto air, lol. I didn't measure it - guessing around 40' but certainly enough of a drop for me to say "Oh shit!" then look down and see a very large, very jagged tree stump directly below me and coming up fast.

I did the only thing I could think to do - I shut my eyes (I already knew I was going to feel it, I didn't want to see the end too).

After what seemed like a lifetime but was probably only five or ten seconds, I opened my eyes. Yep, still alive. I'd landed not on the tree stump but on the other side of a ~25' wide creek-bed that was itself probably ten feet from the stump. To this day my buddy swears up and down that I knew some secret way off that cliff because without the room to get a running start it would have been impossible to reach the point I ended up at (and there were no tracks except for the ones I made when I stood up and walked off).

I kind of freaked out but soon decided that whatever the force is that punches our tickets just hadn't punched mine yet and let it go at that.

Perhaps it would have been wiser to wonder if there was something that I was supposed to accomplish (that I had not done), but... stupid teenager.

I believe that there is a power, force, God, whatever label one chooses to use.

I am not egotistical (or insecure?) enough to think that He (She?) is here solely for us Earthlings. Such a belief would make my universe quite small, lol. I figure that He is the God of all (and "all" covers quite a bit). It seems to me that if this is the case, that it stands to reason that God would not accept only those lucky few who guessed the one true name to call Him by. So to speak. Therefore, I believe that a Christian, a Moslem, a Sufi, et al, would all have an equal chance at grace - based on their heart and what kind of person they are - exemplified by their actions, of course.

I try to respect everyone's beliefs - as long as their actions are true and they aren't hypocrites paying lip service.

I guess I'm WAY off-topic, and for that I apologize. I just felt like typing, lol.

There is no "off-topic" here my friend. My neighbour is a creationist and a heck of a fine person that I have had many a discussion with about "God" as we see "Him".

His revelations came about as a result of a near-death experience that drove him from the Catholic church to his beliefs now. My beliefs say that a stroke is just part of being the animals we are and being susceptible to natural failures of the flesh that thin out the herd as it were. The wolves always take out the weak and the young and are in no way as I define it "evil", as their actions in the human world would seem to be.

The arguments for and against "God" will never have a definitive end here, or in any other forum you care to discuss them. I firmly doubt that any of us will be able to come to a conclusion ever even after our own deaths as I believe that is the end to all discussion. I hope there is some "mass consciousness" in the after-life as it sux to think that we are all just food for the worms after our fleshly life is over but that may be it. No one, ever, has come back to give us proof of any other end and even tho I am a great devout lover of Sci-Fi I still won't believe in flying saucers until one lands in my back yard and invites me to take a ride. A ride I will enthusiastically accept as I would from an Angel of the Lord should it deign to visit me.

If I'm wrong and end up in "hell", I'm sure to have more interesting conversations with my fellow inmates that I would likely have with the all the religious hypocrites that I have met or heard of in my life in "heaven". I suspect that they will likely have a special place in hell and I just might get to visit some punishment on them. Mom always said I was a little demon!

Speaking of my mom, you couldn't find a more spiritual person no matter where you looked. Always the first to lend a hand or a dollar to those in need whether friend, family or drunk in the gutter. To think that this woman that never goes to church to pray to a "God" should end up in eternal torment is laughable to me.

Speaking of "off-topic", I better get off this topic or move it to the Off Topic forum where it belongs.

Treat all as friend, defend home and family, build not walls but bridges and wave your freak flag high!

They that refuse to feel pain will never feel joy just as they that give up liberty and freedom for safety and security will miss the former and rue the latter.

People, sheeple. Lover, hater. Giver, taker. I choose "A" for all of the above and if I go to hell for that I know they're wrong for sure. I hope the next fifty years are as interesting as the last have been and with any luck better, tho I think the world is heading to a darker place.

I'm headed to a lighter place as I'm goin' downstairs to see my girls and with any luck get a few pix to share with you all!

No sh*t!

I think this is our only life.......until I find out other wise.....throw my ashes in to the sea and I'll turn into something else.....maybe indica.

I too am an avid SF fan.....but those are just wishes.....some of which have come true......but life beyond death, I don't know. Show me!

If you want to see a good SF movie, that nobody knows about. Rent "The Man From Earth". Good stuff.

Well, I seemed to have covered it all. Life, Death, and SF.

Great movie - shows what can be done with a good script and good actors - hell, the actors don't even need to be that great with a mind blowing script like that one... good to watch after a little sativa smoke if you really want to get the full experience...

creationist

Never could understand 'em. I mean I get the whole "Creator of the universe" thing and all (obviously). But as for the creationism thing, well even most flat-earthers will snap out of it when they get to the edge... and realize that there isn't one. Think someone once said something about that. Probably Samuel Clemens.

Boy did they go out of their way to prove THAT. I've seen better acting in porno. But yeah, good movie. Would have made a better book as it would have saved about 25 minutes since I can read faster than the "actors" talked - and the voices in my head are better at that dialogue thing, lol, but you'll have that. Concept was first-rate.

Yeah, it occurred to me as I was writing that the acting was a bit "strained"

Better acting in a porn? Hmmmmm. How about that script, but as a porn?

Well, I had better think of something on topic since I don't want to report my own post, (I'm not as much as a man as you T.S. - I'm always impressed when you report yourself )

Oh yeah, I meant to ask you LabRat, have you ever tried "hempy buckets"? Seems cheap and easy, with less fuss than DWC. I guess you might have a problem getting perlite though where you are. Still, I'm setting up a bud of mine since I'm having to move away and can't grow anymore - (he's a dirt farmer, but I think I have him convinced to try hempy; DWC would blow his brain) and I was curious to what you think about hempys, if anything.

From what I've seen of hempys, they are much the same idea as those air-pots that OMM is using aren't they? I think I would go with those if I could get them and wanted to get into dirt farming. I actually find DWC to be much less fuss that dirt but to each their own.

Being back at work now I have access to bulk fertilizers and brought some home yesterday with the boss' permission. I think with a little experimentation I might be able to make my own special blends of hydro nutes. I got a 5 gal pail of some of everything that I'll mix up and broadcast on the garden before it gets roto-tilled. The veggy growth has been less than stellar the last couple of years so it can't hurt. For my needs a 2 lb coffee can of each should last for years! Nothing organic about this stuff but the farmers grow our food with it so it can't be that bad. The boss has data sheets on all of it so I'll get copies of those and with trace elements added it should work OK.

Never got those pix yet and the wife took off with the camera in the car but should be back before the lights come on around 3. I need to make a run to the dump too so it'll be later after a change of clothes before I get pix.

C'ya L8r OBX and I hope you're moving to a better place. A state with more liberal pot laws maybe?
