dark absorbers uses an exothermic chemical reaction. that is why 1. they dont last forever and 2. they get hot as they absorb dark.

yup, that's what i meant with the 'computer on but no one home' satirical comment. (lights on but no one home) it was refractory..

full house of sleeping men. son comes in around 1:30AM but I do not think i will be up for that. five go to hunt, one (hubby) goes to work. game cameras displayed on the big tv screen to get everyone psyched. two ten pointers, 3 six points, one four point that looks like a front end loader, one atypical- one way left, one straight down over the eye and nose. like it ran into a parked mountain. and a coyote, but that is long gone. winds favorable for WSW bringing the scent away from the deer. daylight is 7:23 officially. my hunting guide work is done. good luck gentlemen. my freezer is waiting.

So there you have it. Blakes lights are on, but nobody is home, and my computer is logged on and I am here, just not always able to reply to your posts as quickly as I would like. because I am usually busy ruinING MY NEW FR SHIRTS AND PANTS~!~!~!!! Ahem, sorry about that again...

Jeff, I meant the cranium part of 'lights on but nobody's home' with the matter/anti-matter arguments into astrophysistry.

I do wonder if Blake ever worked a tough job, instead of standing around looking pretty. orange cleaner for pipe dope on the cotton twill work shirts.
advice from mom. I doubt you are near even a motel out in the flats over there jeff. safe working and no hot wiring the network adapter or anything...

Blake, marc, fronty, Canuck scotty and other hard working family guys- here's to ya! every one has been so busy this year.

some hunters still out, young ones in and practice shooting bow in the yard. saw three buck, one low shot. had wise neighbor hunter stop by and talk with them for a few hours, they were all transfixed (like a video game). best thing? they are 20s old fellas.
they helped me with chores, bought a pizza and just about the best generation one could ask for. very good day and waiting for the tall tales tonight, good food, good friends and that 'magic' of guys and hunting. awesome to watch the appreciation for nature.
