Re: Djinn
Chapter 1 Al strolled along the waterfront of the island town, shaded from the equatorial sun by a light parasol. He was, as he liked to describe it, in his best “Papa Hemingway” outfit – a light linen shirt, khaki shorts, knee socks, boat shoes and a walnut tan peeling and itching somewhat at the ...

Djinn
This is another one from Dinky Inky and myself, with a welcome assist from a character of Shneekey The Lost's in as a cameo.. To be honest, this one is in spots a lot darker than our usual fare. I do want to warn folks against it. It touches on many of the darker points of the human spirit, and thou...

It's been a while....
...but I recently finished a novella in the fanfic universe with Ms. Dinky. I will confess it's a rather dark piece compared to my usual - it does come out right in the end but there are definitely some spots in it that are not recommended for pre-bedtime reading if you are of a sensitive dispositio...

Sorry to be late getting back to this, but RL has been annoying. :) This one was not mechanically psycho but was ...how shall we say this...not right in the head. As in Steven King's "Christine", but not to the same level. That is a story that will come out somewhere along the line when Di...

Greg, you know what I've had to say about it - we've talked.
I hope the Lord and Lady help soothe his spirit and help you and Anne find some comfort in these times.

Re: More Stuff
YOW! Had a 3-foot diameter white pine snap off in a severe storm and do that not-so-gently to my property about a decade ago. Thankfully the only damage was a 3-foot hole in the garage roof where the top of the tree whipped through. Yours looks like it came down slow enough to not do any severe dama...

Re: We have until about Christmas before new material, Where's the portal to the coffeehouse?
In the machine shop we used to use an old crackpot for melting the Plasti-Coat --FreeFlier And what did he melt it in? There's a Freudian slip if ever I saw one. I used to use an old saucepan on a thermostatically controlled electric hot plate for the exact same purpose. It required less material t...

Re: We have until about Christmas before new material, Where's the portal to the coffeehouse?
Actually that sounds like a good way to tenderize flank steak without having to pound the life out of it with a tenderizing hammer. But it's so therapeutic... And the oven has that setting on the thermostat, which is goood because the HVAC system on the shuttle doesn't have any ducts that are in th...

Re: We have until about Christmas before new material, Where's the portal to the coffeehouse?
We can move a good amount of those to my friends for tourist fodder, but most of that lot's probably better off going to industrial use. I could do with a kilo or two of them myself. Let's take this offline before we stir up DeBeers....again. Re: Bront: As long as you don't say it tastes like chicken.

Re: We have until about Christmas before new material, Where's the portal to the coffeehouse?
I have an outlet for the dust, in ton lots even, but these things are too big to use for industrial purposes. I'm not sure what half-karat diamonds convert to in abrasive grit sizes but it's way less than anything usable. They're almost gravel size...can you imagine the wear properties of roads pav...

Opus, mate - we need to talk about those industrial rocks the Orions are sticking you with.I have friends in Tel Aviv in the trade who can take quantities like that and convert them, so no need to fritter (pardon the pun) them away in straight sales. In any case, I am in the market, small stones lik...
