That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

I dug up some Lowe’s gift cards and picked up a 10x8 metal shed kit. I’ve been paying $75 a month for storage for over a decade to basically store a giant Christmas tree and kids clothes (I have a workshop but a small house). Plus I am sick of dragging everything from the far back of the yard workshop to the front driveway to work on cars (air compressor, tools, vacuums, Ramps, etc...)

Made a level base with 6x6 posts I had for the perimeter and got the bottom frame built. This is going to take a long time...

5/30 Quarantine Productivity Update:

Running rigging more or less done on the FJ, I hoisted the sails in celebration.



Just need to make some lifters for the hiking straps out of shock cord, and a tail for the spin pole topping lift (also out of shock cord). And then running rigging will be complete!

I also mixed up some of West System’s finest and glued the rudder and centerboard back together.



There was some differential warping of the boards so I’m gonna have to do some filling and fairing, and then I’ll paint them white.

The transom where the upper rudder gudgeon mounts is weirdly deformed, looks like there was maybe some old wood core in there that got punky but they filled it with epoxy but it’s still misshapen. I’m gonna add a stiffener but it won’t sit flat against the hull the way it is now. Not sure how ambitious I feel about dealing with it. Proper fix would be grind it down and reglass it so it’s flat, but :effort:

Glad we're out a good distance from downtown in case any rioting starts there. My brother is ~5 minutes from downtown, I've told him if poo poo starts to take the back way and come out here. So massive protests, memorial day parties and beaches open....how bad is the second wave going to be?

Wife goes back to work tomorrow, has been working from home since early March. I'm more than a little concerned but it helps she has her own office and works in an area that see very few people walking through.

We managed to fit four cars in the two car portion of the garage yesterday so the i3 is finally parked inside. Need to grab a picture, everything fit better than expected.

Finished it now. Was very very good. A few names I completely forgot, a few names I have on rotation and some I'll be adding. There's so much much more they could do but it would never end. John Carpenter was great as the narrator, drawing from his beginning needing to make soundtracks for his first movies etc.

Does it matter? The whole point is so that people who haven't been convicted of anything can go about their lives before their trial. Anyone who's violent is usually getting a very high bail or denied entirety.

I was just wondering how they were going about doing it, like throwing a bunch of money at a jail full of people or if it was more of an organized effort that's all.

When large amounts of money is donated it doesn't always get used for what it was intended for.

Anything "nice" (ie A/C and a shower) are like $25000 for something made in 2007. I think I might just go get a larger travel trailer. Funny enough the dealership I was going to wander around today is on fire. Apparently the propane tanks behind the shop are currently exploding.

You’re more worried about that than police attacking lawful protestors, journalists, and medical personnel?

Or just build from scratch.


Protests were right outside last night. Buncha stores broken into, Residential wasn't touched. Armed robbery and a shooting. heard reports of a molotov, big5 had their guns looted, weed shops were looted and handed out to whoever wanted it. Teargas and flashbangs were involved. Choppers and sirens till around 1am.
This corrupt precinct hits the national news all the loving time and I'm honestly amazed they didn't go whole hog. Maybe they knew that this town wouldn't give two shits about burning itself to the ground for a cause. There's another larger protest slated for Tuesday.
