    We have plenty of room, but it might be an inflatable mattress by this time. I am not 100% that every actual bed has been taken, but it's close. We still are planning on getting some inflatables from people so it shouldn't be a big. Besides if it's like last time, hardly anyone ended up sleeping where they planned. Some just "slept" wherever they happened to fall.

    Urinal upgrades

    After last years suggestion box got full (by suggestion box, I mean my ear) of complaints about the facilities by some of our er shall we say less RURAL members I decided on a radical redesign of the facilities.

    Some of you may remember our previous facilities:


    Come we me as we delve into plumbing 101.

    I conducted extensive research into the history of plumbing, waste removal and septic systems including countless hours of research into urinating different types of beer into various outlets. After comparing urine removal options to funding options, I came up with what I decided is a brilliant upscale voiding station.

    First off, we need something for the urine to go to:



    Now this particular 5 gal bucket is sitting in a hole manually dug by my senior plumbing engineer, namely myself. After tossing a few rocks down into the hold and drilling a few holes into the bucket, I pronounced it formally a septic tank.

    Next up, we need pipe to take said waste materials to said septic tank. Lucky for me I just happen to have lots and lots of extra black pipe laying around from my last er plumbing experiment. Now, I happened to have a piece of 2" that already had a trap in it so I cut it to fit and the stuck an el in the end and cut a hole through this sophisticated covering mechanism that we'll refer to as particle board.




    Now, before proceeding, I decided I should clean it up a bit by burying the facilities just like in a real loo.



    Next, I decided that aiming for the opening on this particular setup might be a little difficult after the festivities get started so I conducted extensive research into the proper urinal type container. By extensive research I mean I walked all around the house looking for an empty bucket of some type and settled on a detergent bottle. It just so happens that the lid on the large detergent jugs are just shy of 2" and with a little persuasion can fit right in the pipe.



    After this I pronounced her good to go. Even gave it a trial run. The trap should keep down the odor. That is presuming you guys can more or less keep the pee in the bucket and off my fence! And just for those of you who are nostaligic about the old facilities, I saved the sign:



    I love it when a plan comes together...

    According to my better half(and wiser half) women can pee standing up all it takes is the correct pelvic tilt and practice.... boom alls good.

    By the way,, you forgot to make it ADA compliant. There may be some folks there that may need a hand standing up that long to urinate(lack of bladder control mostly, or old man syndrome) a simple handrail I feel would suffice

    more upgrading

    bedeeep bedeeep beeeep BEEP... WE interrupt you day for this import announcement:::::::::


    Ok, the preparations continue. After sitting out in the garage all winter, my ball got pretty dirty, especially when I played with it with dirty hands. Anyway today I pulled out the arcade table and cleaned the ball and made it all nice and shiny white. Then I proceeded to test it playing GoldenTee 3D for 9 holes. It's working pretty good. Take a look:



    I also have been working a little more on the side art. I need more paint, though so who knows if it'll be finished by the time you guys make it here.



    Let's see what else did I do today... Oh, I tested the kegerator again. It still seems to be functioning at optimal capacity although being the perfectionist that I am I will proceed to test it periodically. (daily)

    I now return you to your regularly scheduled boredom.

    Is there any urinal cakes in the new facilities? also it looks almost poop worthy, who will be the first? Is there any plans to install one in the Living room as a second indoor unit?

    If you can also add a magazine rack or maybe a framed daily newspaper to read.

    wow....just wow.

    Does that fence lead to a nasty neighbor's yard? If so, funnel it there.

    Was just going to axe what the final dates were. Going to actually get off my ass and work on the VFR so I don't get laughed at again.

    Lots of stuff up in there air for me, new work schedule (new job, TBA) might screw with everything. We shall see.

    I'm still planning on bringing the burb. And sleeping in the burb (sharpie free environment). Trailering out the bike. Probably pick up VFRChick in Boron. Too bad no one else from Tucs/Phx wants to go.
