It’s "Humidity" by a group called Heights of Abraham... from 1993. Very good downtempo electroncia. This CD was made previous to one I’ve already got by them. I didn’t even know it existed until a week ago or so. Nice easy, groovy stuff.

Wow 2 months that will make it really hard when/if she leaves again. What’s the longest you’ve spent together?.......

GIGGLES!!!!!!

Oh... giggles!!! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you around here!!!

How the hell are you doing these days?

(((((gigglesnort))))))

I just thought how weird it is to be on a bulletin based in California asking a guy in Kentucky about a woman that lives probably less than 20 miles from me......

screwy world, huh?

That will be the longest time, actually. And I’m sure it’ll be hard to part again. But that’s ok. We’ll deal with that when it gets here. Prior to that, she spent a week or so here, then we went down to Biloxi, and another week... so almost 4 weeks is the longest so far.

Heya black pussy cat! Life is sweet and sour, you know, the usual...

Mebbe back in a minute, mebbe not...

If not, then blessed be and all that...

I think she’s visiting her Dad and the computer is in the same room her kids are sleep in ,..... or we aren't exciting enough to hold her interest...

It will be interesting to hear ( if I ever do ) if 2 months terns out to be just right, 4 weeks to long or not nearly enough....

Your both great people and I Have to admit I love to see you both happy.

Thanks, Z... That means a lot. We are both very independent people, and yet don’t want to be too far apart. It’s interesting to see how we do with things like this... and interesting to see how we both grow as individuals and as a team as time goes by.

And yeah... I'm betting on the "not exciting enough" when it comes to us and giggles.

Nice avatar pic, I suppose I should think about making up a new one or two myself but not tonight.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 10:58 pm

I still can’t do sound on my computer , has anyone checked out “the Streets Of A New World Order “ In the “Art & performance” section

Seeing the logo made me wonder if the should be brought to the Kernuls attention , as a possibility for a night at Apokiliptika....

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 10:59 pm

Mozy gifted me with this one, actually. I like it too. And I gotta say, I like your avatar. It's somewhat comforting to me to always see it. Stablility in a way...

But feel free to change it too. Might be a good thing to shake it up a little bit.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 11:02 pm

It’s so odd for me be a beacon of stability , maybe I’ll stay with it awhile,.. or not we’ll see

Wake up and go to bed, man... I’m outta here, I do believe.

Gotta work tomorrow. ‘Night!!

Actually, I've always had an interest in you, black puss. Lately, I've not had an internet connection at home, part decision and part circumstancial.

I've missed being here and missed the folks, and missed you too. I'll miss you all again when I go home tomorrow (been visiting my dad in Missouri this week during my girls' spring break).

I've got that generic steinlein black pussy cat on my wall in my livingroom/dining room, so I look at your name and think of you daily. Not to mention that lovely bauble you sent to me by sensei from burning man, which dangles over my head as I sleep each night, the spiral like a conch shell, in metal once molten, dangling from a green string.

I've got a local boyfriend, the beau from posts past (3playa and here some, too), if you ever read any of them I don't know. Not sure of... many things regarding... I talk to sensei on the phone often, and I think the world of him.

The beau is not my exhusband, of whom I've written; he is in state hospital in little rock right now (thank goodness).

There, jerry springer in a nutshell, minus the tits and thrown punches.

smooches,
giggles

Anyone in here? I need a last beer for the night...
and technical point from above post could confuse a newbie camper

Chai Guy wrote:
i don't care what's in between that black and the inside air, it will COOK ya!
I think with the air flow it should be fine. It should also be noted that on the playa, you're better off with a darker roof that does not allow light into the interior of the structure, than a lighter roof which will allow light (and thus heat) to penetrate the interior and then be trapped inside.

Technical point: I think you have that backwards Chai white reflects heat and light and Black absorbs heat and light and radiates heat better than white
So if your tent top is black it is going to be hotter during the day and colder at night
You want a light colored tent cooler during the day and will give up less heat at night
Real life examples would be desert nomad tents (light colored) and race car engines (cam covers and such painted flat black the best color to radiate heat to remove it from motor)
and Heat and light are different things but they are both forms of radiation

Some examples:
“nomad camps of two to three tents, whose white pointed roofs can be spotted way off in the distance in so many parts of the desert.”

“Dark materials absorb more heat from the sun--as anyone who has worn a black t-shirt on a sunny day knows. Black surfaces in the sun can become up to 70°F (40°C) hotter than the most reflective white surfaces. If those dark surfaces are roofs, some of the heat collected by the roof is transferred inside”.

I don't have it backwards. If you've ever been under a blue or white tarp/fabric in BRC you know it's hotter than an opaque fabric shade srtucture.

Think "Green House"

UV light is allowed to enter throught the light colored fabric and then bounce around inside the shade structure (again off the reflective top, from the inside). Any light that is "trapped" under the tarp, will turn to heat (notice how things are cooler when you're standing in a complete shadow?)

Well let me buy a beer first and we should move this over to the Bar construction in the meantime from your own source

"The blue tarps are translucent, and result in greenhouses; the silver ones don’t let any light through and keep the people under them very comfortable.
".

Your own source is preferring siver(white) because it reflects more light and radiant heat then the Blue(black) one he just doesn't know it!
Really is simple science. Now you start adding in a translucent variable based on thickness, mesh, spectrum transmission etc that makes a big difference but you were talking color!
And your source is also confused about what is causing the heat but he is closer to reality,

Anyhow I got to go to bed lets figure it out on the other thread in the morning,
Ask Rg if you want...

Rebi! I am so hopped up on the 5 shots of espresso and the coffee I had this morning that I'll be dancing along with you for the next hour (assuming I can keep my attention in one place for longer than 4 seconds)

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Sat Mar 25, 2006 8:07 am

No Martini for me,... right now anyway, good morning Rabbi

Good morning Sputnik, Joel ,.. got big plans for the day?

I need another cup of coffee myself , I’ve got no real plans but a mountain of things I’ve put off for way to long and hopefully I can get myself to chip away at some of them today.

Gosh building a fence in the rain and snow sounds like a lot of fun but I think I’ll have to pass on that one, sorry maybe I could help you celebrate when it’s done.

No plans for the day for me other than to hang around the house.

oh and dance...I can't sit still right now.
