Public Safety Announcement.
Everybody should have a way to boil water or cook food if your power is off.
Mrs. Geezer and I bought one of these, it works great. We cooked a meal with a handful of sticks.
Bud the Neighbor could have built one for us or we could have made our own out of a few tin cans but the price was right. We bought ours from StockStorage.com for $135, including shipping.
They have a few different models including a Stainless Steel one. I’m thinking about getting another one so we can use two burners at the same time.
YouTube has a bunch of videos on how to make your own.
Tree Trimming – with a Helicopter March 28, 2011
Posted by Retired Geezer in Man Laws, Technology, Art.90 comments
Flyin’ Brian has worked for an Oil Drilling company for the last 5 years.
The company was sold recently and the bean counters have decided to phase out the helicopter and consequently his job.
He is in North Carolina auditioning for a job trimming trees.
This is what it looks like.
Here’s a link with Guns n’ Roses music. I couldn’t embed it.
Darn Those Joos! March 23, 2011
Posted by Michael in Heroes, News, Technology.51 comments
When there is a catastrophe like the earthquake in Haiti, wouldn’t you think that the Joos could take a break from their own problems (like the bombing in Jerusalem today), and from their conspiracies by the Elders of Zion to control the world banking system? Couldn’t they lend a helping hand with the ill-gotten gains they earned by oppressing working people?
Oh wait, they did.
Thanks to Retired Geezer for the link.
Bonus photo from Geezer of our esteemed President and First Lady is below the break.

When we got back from vacation the mailman said they had a package at the post office. This is what we received. It has the following inscription, “To BrewFan, From your Idaho spud buddy Geezer. Not even Michael has a book of Vietnamese poetry, with added music!”
I will cherish this forever!!

Police: 21-year-old Boise man arrested after using cell phone app to mimic patrol car lights.
Alexander A. Welch is being held in the Ada County Jail on a felony charge of unlawful exercise of the function of peace officers after Boise police say he used a cell phone app that flashes blue and red to try to pull over another car Saturday night.
Boise police arrested Welch shortly after they were called by another driver around 9:30 p.m. Saturday who told officers that someone who they did not think was an officer tried to pull them over in the 4000 block of Fairview Avenue.
Shootin’ with Grandpa December 27, 2010

Visiting with Dad today for some post-holiday cheer and leftover mooching. The gals went shopping. The manly dudes went shooting. What was on the menu today?
From left to right: Colt Detective Special .38 — Kimber Pro Carry II .45 (not as pretty as Dave’s, but shoots as nice) — High Standard Sport King .22 LR — Smith & Wesson Highway Patrolman .357 (it turned a few heads at the range in a “what the hell was that?” way)
When the handguns were being put away, I put some of the long guns out for a photo as well. So, just for fun, and especially for Russ:
Browning Auto 5 — .33 Winchester Model 1886 — .30 Winchester Model 64 — L.C. Smith 12 — Sharps Model 1859 .52 cal
Also, I don’t think a new crime fighter has been introduced. This is Jasper–a.k.a. “Poochie.” I think my wife loves me as much as this dog, but I’m not sure I want to ask.
So Merry Late Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Utah Skinbads to you and urine.

What Should Big Tex Say? September 24, 2010

He’s been a fixture at the State Fair since ’52. I remember being told like a million other kids “if we ever get separated, meet in front of Big Tex.” I love the guy, but let’s face it, his social skills are pretty lame.
“Hoooooooooowdy foooolks! Welllcome to the Greeeeeeeeeeeeat Staaaaaaaaate Faaaaaaair of Texxxxxxxxxas.”
Lame.
If I were in charge of the Big Tex script, I’d make changes this year. Lighten up on the drawl, put in a few jokes.
“Hey, you! Yeah, you, in the Sooner jersey. Pussy.”
“Honey, looks to me like them funnel cakes are goin straight to yore ass.”
“I got yer corn dog raht here.”
“Howdy folks. Y’all here that car alarm goin off? Probably hard to tell down there where you are, it’s comin from over that’away.”
Hey baby, how YOU doin?

My good friend Frank, a photographer for the National Park Service, is selling some of his prints on Facebook.
All of the profits are going to the International Bird Rescue Team.
I am raising money for the International Bird Rescue Team now working in the gulf. I am selling select prints , 8×10 matted and signed for $50.00 each, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the IBRT. Hoping to raise $1000.00 in the next 2 weeks. please share with your friends. I just can’t stand seeing all the oil covered birds, I don’t know what else to do but to try to raise money for the folks who can save them.

Michael, it seems you were right.
Wow. That was difficult.
I mentioned after the big unusual freezes here that I keep saying are unusual AND YET we’ve had em back to back for the past two winters, that I thought we lost both sago palms. I didn’t even bother looking at this one until today.
Look closer…
