Hm...just a thought, lit...random, haven't tried this.

But I wonder if making a mixed ester between a polyol and both boric acid, and some sort of explosophore might yield good results. Would be a HE though probably. Something like a dinitroglycerol borate ester perhaps. Could be interesting. things like methyl, ethyl borate burn with a vivid green flame.

I have thought about that too. Many similar substances could actuslly be used in pyrotechnics. I think the US military tried some stuff like that in the 1960's.

I took my daughter to work and she cleaned up in the van when she got bored, between the floor and the center console she came up with this 6 one dollar bills, $69 in quarters, $31.70 in dimes, $7.80 in nickles, $3.39 in pennies plus 2 wheat back pennies,2 Canadian pennies and a 5 pence coin from the UK.  Not bad for spare change :2thumbsup:

Well well....that was pretty sweet...

Just went out on an early morning walk, I'd popped a couple of sleeping pills, but still couldn't get to sleep all night, so I figured on going out to stretch my legs a bit and cool off.

Went out to a local field to check if the masses of wild raspberry andblackberries were yet bearing fruit. They weren't.

But I noticed a 4-leaf clover, as they said, they bring good luck (I have an idea for perhaps something in the way of an artistic gift for a certain special someone.

And what did I see when I bent to pick it? nice bit of spliff, just what I fancy right now :D
Not damp with dew or anything, and a lighter to go with it. Not a huge amount, but I could get three bongs out of it if I really tried. I'm not going to though, I'm just going to stuff it all in one, breaking out an extra-large downpipe and bowl.

I only really went out for a quick walk, a morning fag and to go grab some pods from the various spots I'd clandestinely sown poppy seeds over earlier this year. And as it happened, I was just thinking to myself 'mmm...I really wouldn't mind a wee bit of vitamin THC right now xD

Wow, did she split half the treasure with you?


And, Canadian pennies, did they not end up in CBC's apartment also? Something mysterious going on? :tinfoil:










I miss our kwartjes and dubbeltjes (Quarters and dimes).

I beat Ceilidh in a game of Magic - The Gathering. Mostly because she had dud cards and not enough land to bring creatures out like I did.

My digital camera works.  I just need to buy a memory card for it so I can get the best use out of it.

Blues band played at the market today where I work.

It was a day all about the blues.
