Spartaaaaaaaa

Slord - there is a "Roman Camp" at the junior prom this year. They're going to have gladiator games and a toga-only partaay.

Some of the events out there sound fucking hilarious. Just thought you should know that I'm excited.

Getting ready

Hello all!

I have a truck that can haul a lot of stuff. If I drive out I would be glad to have company! I now have two sets of fairy wings..sorry pirates..I'm a fairy! However I will also bring a pirate costume. Jessica, Michael mentioned you are making burkas. Do you need fabric or money? I can't offer much help as I struggle with sewing my own costumes. I'm much better at riding my Mtn bike in the dirt and rocks and can cook OK too. Well, I'm excited for Interfuse and BM. Talk to you all later
Oh...Am I going to be initiated into anything terrible??!!

:-)

Pur Water



This was floating around the MWB message boards. Apparently Pur Water has produced little packets that can treat grey water in 30 minutes. Watch the short video, it's neat!

To be honest, I'm interested mainly to see what it tastes like. Altho being able to remove sediment from excess grey water is an interesting challenge - it's usefulness for me at BM seems limited, besides a shower my grey water is limited to the occasional cup or tooth rinse.

I am gonna try to acquire a few packs for interfuse.

Interfuse Effigy Fire



Two Whom it May Concern:
Zay mentioned wanting to build our flame effect into the television remote. It's fairly bulky - consists of a 3.5' tall cylinder on an Alice pack frame and has a 3' "business end." The business end can be modified down significantly to fit in any package, but the 3.5' tall cylinder must remain upright for it to function. When laying on its side it'll throw an impressive mist of flame but it's nothing in comparison to upright with liquid fuel (and has a small chance of getting air + flame + fuel back into the pressure vessel - the check valve isn't made to work well on its side).

The range is realistically between 30 and 15 feet - it dwindles slightly as the pressure runs out. On a full tank it'll have about half a minute of sustained fire or about a minute of burst sprays (these are pretty!) The ambient heat from a sustained blast has melted fireproof gloves, zip ties and warped a brazing mask - it's hot but not too hot to stand near for a few seconds. (Feels like sunburn.)

I picture us setting off the effigy in a massive display of pyrotechnics and fireworks - shortly afterwards (when the explodie bits are "done") a fully firesuited figure wades in and begins "cleansing the effigy with purging flames." This is open to interpretation as it's a pipe dream. Whaddya think?

RE: [MWBEffigy] [Ignition] Ignition via flamethrower!

Several phrases come to mind, most of them consisting of two words. They are as follows:

Fuck yes.

Hell yeah.

Kick ass.

Fuckin A.

There are probably more. But that’s what I’m thinking at this exact moment.
