This weekend Cainad and I sharpened a LARP, farted on nobility, delivered "ministry", and swore at them over forgetting the faces of their fathers and their basic geometry.

Was anyone left alive?

All of them. Which is far, far worse when you think about it.

LMNO, I just realized your post count is '80085'. Or 'Boobs'. How appropriate.  :lulz:

There is no reason why flights to Kansas City need to be as much as they are. I mean, it's not like people actually like to go to Kansas City, do they?

And that's why flights there are expensive. The more people go somewhere, the cheaper the flights get.

Living near a hub helps a lot. Got a flight this month to DC for less than 180 round trip from Denver. Because fuck yes.

That's roughly 25+ hours driving time, easily 250 in gas one way most definitely.
We appear to be doomed by our DNA to repeat the same destructive behaviors our forebears have repeated for millenia. If anything our problem solving skills have actually diminished with the advent of technology & our ubiquitous modern conveniences. & yet despite our predisposition towards fear-driven hostility; towards what we anachronistically term primitive behavior another instinct is just as firmly encoded in our make-up. We are capable as our ancestors were of incredible breathtaking acts of kindness. Every hour of every day a man risks his life at a moments notice to save another. Forget for a moment the belligerent benevolent billionaires who grant the unfortunate a crumb of costfree cake. I speak of pure acts of selflessness. A Mother who rushes into the street to save a child from a speeding vehicle. A person who runs into a burning building to reach a family trapped on the upper story. Such actions,such moments,such unconscious selfless decisions,define what it is to be human

yeah, if you live in Denver, DFW, Phoenix, Chicago, Houston, Charlotte, ATL, DC, or NYNJ you're all set.

I didn't include MSP or Detroit because if you're flying Delta you're already fucked.

Rejoined my friends LARP group after a several year absence. Had a great time, reconnected with my friends and ran into the first other Discordian i've ever met IRL.

Both jet mills failed last night, due to defective parts used in the last rebuilds (from the manufacturer).

I can't stand it.

I can't say I wasn't expecting something like that, but I was not expecting the manufacturer to get into the mix.

I think I need to stop using "Go to your room" as a punishment. It's an easy trap to fall into when your kid is freaking out and needs to chill and YOU need to chill, but I think it reinforces some bad ideas. Being in your room is bad and undesirable, spending time alone in your own space is only for when you have done something wrong.

Maybe a rug or an uncomfotable chair.

Or a bean bag, yeah a bean bag. That way he doesn't think they are cool. I am going to buy him a punishment bean bag.

You wanna switch it up? YOU go to your room. Seriously. "I can't handle the way you're acting right now, I need a break" and then retreat.

It depends a lot on the kid. You don't want them to feel abandoned. But it teaches them 2 things: 1, that people aren't obligated to put up with their shitty behavior, and 2, that rooms are a refuge to retreat to.

You can also simply reframe time out; "Are you feeling overwhelmed? Do you need a break?" Somehow, in our punishment-freak society, time out has been reframed as a punishment. It wasn't supposed to be.

"Jeff my good man, if you were so inclined, how would you fuck up a vehicle beyond all repair and have the problem remain undetectable?"
"I'm not sure Junkie, why ever would you ask?"
"Let's not concern ourselves with the details and focus on the problem at hand shall we?"
"Well if it were me, I'd drain the oil, run it until seizing and then refill the oil"
"Excellent. I would like you to do that very thing to that pickup over there"
"Why?"
"Let's not ask questions Jeff"
"OK, consider it done"

There are times, not many, but there are times when this job is nearly enjoyable.

So.

The trip to Kansas City has turned into Suu's Crazy Train Adventure 2014. Using my military discount I can take the train from Boston to Kansas City and back for less than flying. Caveat it takes a day and a half, bonus is that there are layovers in DC and Chicago. Long enough ones for me to go out and explore for a bit. I will be spending just as much time in KC as I will on the rails, but this is going to be epic. Or disastrous. Or both.   :lulz:

I figure on the way back, when I'm not bound by the hours of the convention I will be speaking at, I can take the Notorious Lakeshore Limited from Chicago to Boston, and see how late we run.
