Hope you feel better AntiM

Waiting, waiting, waiting..... Did read a slip up that the pricing will be $380 a ticket with no tiers. Low income tix at $190. Just hearsay but someone saw it posted by mistake then it was quickly taken down. "twiddling my thumbs"

Maybe we should have a weigh in/weigh out procedure for the meet'n'greet this year.

winebuff · Post by **winebuff** » Fri Jan 04, 2013 3:39 pm

I will be camping at BDC this year where the Meet and Greet will be. Stop by the 59 airstream where all the pink flamingos are and I will check you out, uh in

I love to augment the chai. I add extra cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and maybe a few other spices and brew a whole pot @ a time, really strong.
I'm working on a homemade chai liqueur for the M&G this year.

Why HELLO, VultureChow.

And thank you. It's just a song I like.

A lot.

Thank you.

the wisdom of the tx sales is great..
(this said although I am retired from BRC no matter what)
Bravo !

MyDearFriend · Post by **MyDearFriend** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 3:44 am

Wisdom of the ticket sales, indeed.

*starts ECM*

It's a relief to see something so reasonably straightforward.

Sorry about your cold, AntiM!

*offers hot black tea with honey and lemon*

Post by **AntiM** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 5:05 am

Thank you.

*thumps EM with freshly de-germed hand*

Still a snotfest in my head though, ugh.

Ah, tickets. Someone will be unhappy, no matter what. I have a bit of a first world problem myself. No matter, it will work out.

When do our theme camp applications go in?

Hi Gang!
sorry you're still not feeling so well, dang it.

Glad to see the ticket thing is being pretty well received....seems reasonable.

I had the first fire in the Hofstove yesterday.....went pretty well.
Now, though, I'm perplexed: I put the exhaust in one place, I see another possibility, and can't really decide which is best. Both have advantages. Sometimes, too many options can be as frustrating as not enough.

Oh! Now I'm on a Tea kick. Earl Grey has that throat numbing effect. I think it's the Bergamot Orange in Earl Grey Tea mmm mmm...

For some reason I am craving an exploded Road Runner for din din, that or it's coyote (again) tonight.

Thx Unka Yggy! lol!

Back to the salt mine for me...

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 6:28 pm

second fire in Hofstove........so far, so good. making noises, but seems to be settling in.

maryanimal · Post by **maryanimal** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 8:29 pm

I bet it keeps the Hof toasty warm Yg! Are you able to cook on the top of it? Pictures please?

Elliot · Post by **Elliot** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 8:30 pm

I still think Ygmir is secretly building a wood-fired rocket to rendezvous with John Frum's space ship, so I'm watching the eastern sky for a cubical shooting star ascending thru the clouds in a shower of sparks.

Elliot · Post by **Elliot** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 8:34 pm

Maryanimal, he is posting pictures in the Work In Progress thread.

FIGJAM · Post by **FIGJAM** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 8:34 pm

So THAT why he has it chained down!

Testing the thrusters.

Thanks Elliot!!

haha wood fired rocket ship!! Elliot, you genius!! "producer gas" and I'm on myway!!!

and FJ: really, you talk about "chained down" and "thrusters" like they're not for sporting events!!

I put some big oak chunks in tonight, see how long they last in there, and make for a longer heat cycle.
It made a big "bang" again. I know a joint is moving, but can't find it. It's not necessarily a bad thing, just curious what's causing the noise.

Elliot · Post by **Elliot** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 9:45 pm

During the occupation of Norway, with the shortage of gasoline, people ran cars and trucks on "wood gas" generated on-board with a huge wood burner in the trunk. So with today's more advanced technology....

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 9:50 pm

yup..........seen that all over Europe, and here too. those funny big ole burners, pipes to the engines.
I so love ingenuity and "making do" with what's there.......talk about cool "steam punk"..........

Elliot · Post by **Elliot** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 10:00 pm

Quite a bit of interest in it still:

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 10:22 pm

yeah,, seems such a waste, though, since you have to burn so much wood, to make the heat to make the gas.
if there's no option, sure, but the heat has to come from somewhere.

Elliot · Post by **Elliot** » Sat Jan 05, 2013 11:06 pm

I guess we ought to show the other bar patrons what we are talking about. After all, this is a friendly and cooperative bar!

From somewhere on the interweb, this car is reported to be in Germany in 1946. Yes, this car runs on wood. But the necessary accessory is a bit awkward.

FIGJAM · Post by **FIGJAM** » Sun Jan 06, 2013 5:33 am

More details.

There are several youtubes also.

Gonna add a custom option to the hof stove Yg?
