I get on these kicks,,,,
and start researching things,,,
In this case, this is likely something that I will be doing here at the homestead. I have not been happy with my heating system since its inception: thats why I bought the propane wall heater. Its not that my stove doesnt’ work. Its that it works TOO well
for a spell, usually driving me right out of the frellin’ house into sub freezing weather. Too many times its been 10F outside and over a 100F inside and I’m there, in my skivvies, with the front door wide open, trying to cool my house (and ME) down.
I have many of the components to make this already. Access to others that will be needed, including the clay (my house sits atop a slab of clay that is 100 yards wide and 40′ deep and about 3′ thick. Just a matter of diggin out what I need from a section of yard I don’t care for) I already have a flue through the ceiling, I already have an old retired propane tank (with the bottom cut off) for the reaction chamber, further flue pipe for the ‘bench’ is more a ‘creative process’ than a logistics one. High aluminite mortar for the main chambers will be about the only purchase I would need to make. (I even have a small dhingie worth of firebrick to assist the build.) (thats also called refractory cement,,,)
In my research, there are two types (more actually, but only these two attract me.) top loading standard rocket stove type combustion, and ‘Batch’ frontloading like a normal style woodstove (but with some modifications to make it not backdrafty.) I am even considering making one section of flue (nearest the outlet) a tesla valve setup to prevent blowback from winter winds. Thats gonna require some serious creative input from my side, but I know the valve and can “figger sumpin’ out”. I already know HARD winds out of the north pile up on my house and have caused my current stove to nearly go out a time or two. Only from due North,,, southerly or even westerly winds help DRAW,,, (and why I really wish I had had more say in where that flue went during the build: dead middle of the peak and that thing would draw no matter the wind direction, thanks to venturi effect of the peak creating vacuum.
Of course, this will be a summer long event, barring major incursions of other facets of my already chaotic life. But I would like to see this thing ‘road ready’ by late September early October. Get rid of this bug honkin’ lunk of steel that takes up way too much realestate in my living room and runs me for cover, er, COLD, fast. I will need to add undersupport to my floor joists in that area, but thats a minor problem; not undoable.
What would I do with my wall heater? Maybe move it into my bedroom or bathroom (always the coldest room in this house) OR Gift it to my Da for his new digs when he figures that thing out. (he’s supposedly going to emulate my place with a ‘tiny home’. Will see. but if so, that wall heater is likely more than enough for his place and a whole lot less headache than a wood burner,,,)
For the record, this won’t be my first foray into Thermal Mass heating systems. When i was at Snakes place in Indy, the workshop we built had heated water pipe ran throughout the slab foundation, and the main stove (in a seperate room from the main) was wrapped tight with block and sand and other aggregates to retain radiant heat from the stove (the stove was also the water heater,,,, rather more complex than I liked, but it worked.) Build a good solid fire in it, let it run for a couple hours and it kept that building around 55F for a full 24 hours. Doesn’t sound comfortable until you hear that was also the year Indy had -22F WEEKS,,, A building sitting at 55F felt like the tropics when coming in from the cold. There were a few nights where Voodoo didn’t want to ‘go home’ to the camper, but wanted to sleep in the shop near the wood stove. Can’t say as I blamed the curr either,,, That camper could get COLD at times.
Other advantages: I could reclaim some of my floorspace (bench space) for comforts. Proper cushioning and the warmed bench (the actual heat sink in this case) could double as a couch, or even a ‘day-bed’ for the really icky kold nights. I am quite certain, Kats will claim that area first and foremost as THEIRS! when the snow starts a-flyin’ outside.
And these things are supposedly running double or better in efficiency over a modern woodburner. Less wood, better stable heat,
Yeah,,, I gotta do this. Take my time, do it in peices, keep the propane heat for the time being, but move that 500# monster the F! out my way,,, (and close off that flue to keep the batty-bats out of my house. I find at least one a year in my stove, that decided to roost in the flue and got turned around trying to get out. gonna need to grate the entrance(exit?) to prevent that in the future.)
and yes,,, this is partly to distract me from thinking about all the OTHER BS in my world currently. Its Sonday, nothing to be done about the other stuff, need something to distract me from it and the ‘real world’ BS that keeps drifting across my views.(I feel like I am watching a major 55 car pile-up on I-5 in slo-mo and can do nothing to stop it. Like we are frog-marching our way into WWIII and can’t hit the brakes nor turn the steering wheel. I could be wrong, but the queasy feels in my gut say otherwise.)
But this is something that CAN be done, and I CAN do, and if it actually works as ‘advertiseed’ will mean less money spent and less toil in my homestead, better nights sleeping when the world is not being nice, etc etc.

Am I krazy,

Burnout is supposedly stoppin’ in early for me to help him with his ride. Mostly sealing up an engine is my understanding, but I know how these things go,,,,
Will he show? Who frellin’ knows,,, he was supposed to come here Satyrday, and did, but showed his ass up around 530ish,,,, Um,,, “Dood, ya got balls to come begging me for help after leaving me hanging in the breeze all day! I coulda gone kayakin’ or something,,, but NO’zzzz I piddled around the house waiting for your arse to show itself” (not really, I did do a family dinner thing at Unk F’s place around 2ish)(and some of the piddlin’ was needed. Put new hoses on my Oxy/Acetylene rig for one,,, now just need to get the bottles refilled)
Nada mucho to talk about. Trumped is showing his ass with this Iran FUBAR,,, Not that I think he had the wrong idea, I DO think his timing and choice of ally were way the fuck off base. Not really digging on things I am picking up these days,,, Something about some retired Head of Palantir saying that that corporation has essentially done a quiet coup of the American Gooberment. Explains more than the Conspiracy theories do,,, IF TRUE… Not saying one way or the other,,, little fish here, BIG SEA out there,,, I prefer to hide here among me rocks in this case.
WAY TOO MUCH SILENCE out there. Things that are going sideways (petroleum prices for the start) but the Feeds are amazingly quiet about this stuff. Even the Dems are being quiet when I would expect them to jump through flaming hoops to pin ANYTHING on Trumped, and he has done some amazingly stoopid shit of late: nope,,, crickets. (maybe they learned, you feed the beast, he responds. Ignore him and he has nothing to work with. He is a master at reverse mudflinging,,, Not so good as a self-supporting act.) This stuff is going to blow in his face, or he is gonna come out of it with even more Political Clout. I have doubts on much of it. That we are seeing the entire NATO krew telling him to pound sand,,,, THAT right there is all the ammunition he needs to pull that ‘treaty’ apart with bare hands. FUGGEM!!! Doesn’t matter what they think,,, thats violation of agreements,,,, OPINION,,, I think that the whole mess should have been dismantled in 1992 after the USSR fell to shreds/ When Putin approached Clinton about joining NATO,,,, that should have been the only reason needed. IT had become a dead dinosaur walking at that point, and became a great albatross around THE WORLDS neck, stinkin’ up the whole world. IT was only because the MIC wanted a ‘common enemy’ to maintain KoldWar momentums. You see it in how our current admins have handled Russia and China, that they won’t let that shit go. Its why Russia and China are BUSINESS PARTNERS and starting to build CREDIBLE LEGACY that will fully replace the Petro Dollar IF WE DON’T GET OUR SHIT STRAIGHT FAST. Trump is still very much of that KoldWar mentality still, or at least is getting fed copious amounts of KoldWar Biased INtel,,,,
Just my two cents,,, But I can easily see all of that just by watching how current leaders pretend tiptoe around Putin and Xi. Its a useful game for a very select minority,
Like Palantir
About that group. I find it quite illuminating and very offensive that such group would Hi-jack the name from Tolkien. Granted, the ‘device’ of that name,and their end-goal are so closely related as to be one and the same, but dammit,,, I LIKE Tolkien, and that company gives me a bad taste. (and I would confidently bet that it was the choice of the founder so that he could hide his intentions ‘in plain sight’ as it were.)
I love the tech,,, I do NOT like much of what the tech has brought forth from Human Nature. Narcissism is at all time highs. So many that FEED on the limelight of social media, and need bigger and bigger fixes to keep that high going. And Palantir and its ilk and competitors, using the tech to gather googlebytes of information, ‘spying’ on literally everyone, for ‘fun and profit’, with apparently ZERO ETHICS,,, LLM’s/AI growth that makes me wonder when Joe Average will lose the ability to THINK for himself. (already seeing signs of it,,,)
Somedays, Luddite seems a good path to follow.
But no,,, I ‘s Krazee,,,, Glutton for punishment or something,,, cuz I stick, and keep striving for my idea of ‘my perfect world’ that ain’t so’ nor even achievable in this ‘reality’. Getting close is the best I can hope for: Self Employed Curmudgeon on a hillside retreat.
Getting there,,,, slowly. May be retirement age by then, but Fuggit, better late than NEVER. (like I will EVER retire? HAH! I’ll likely be dead in 24 hours when I ‘retire’,,,)
LOL I said I didn’t have much to talk about, but here it is 500ish words later,, Gonna jump back on that AI thing for a minute. Y’all may remember me using ChatGPT for a spell? Well, I got sick and tired of the Fluffer aspect (so it seemed) hardwired into its “personality”. Breifly I used Grok4, but found that I wasn’t using it much at all. I still have both on tap, but I think my phone put the apps to sleep, I use them so little. Grok is excellent for research as it cites its sources, is DRY as F! in personality (I believe it starts to develop one with more interaction with the user,,, Hard to do if I rarely use it eh? Or my use of it is as a research student; “Go get this, write me a 1000 word synopsis of the content,,,”) OH,,, And I have caught ALL of them (Chat, Grok, Leo, Siri) in bald faced lies. Some of that may be lack of information, or dunno, but they doubled down when confronted,,, Thats PROGRAMMING, not their nature (do they have a nature? Me thinks NO.) No, I won’t be relying on AI for anything past help in research on projects or ideas for such. Nothing that may have a political ideology bias lurking in the background, and NOTHING that would require it to dig past the 1901 year portal. (dig into that quandry of history and how things ‘changed’ or began changing in education,,,)
But its time to keep watch for Burnout to arrive, sip some coffee with the Coz on the porch while waiting, and if the big dummy no shows up to 11, go do my domestics and not sweat it.

Took a nite off
Kray kray day, didn’t make it to Da’s until near 1830,,,
Sis is seeing why I dropped stuff in her lap. ROFL Not funny, but funny. Shits more than a little SNAFU for those of us that are from ‘Up-Nort’. Yes, there is still Yankee in me, probably never gonna get rid of all of it seein’ how I was Yank until mid 40’s. But I did have some So’thern raising as well.
BUT dammit man,,, when it comes to documentation, Can’t we get a little better in the description department? Seriously,,, some of these property deeds could describe a spiral down a hillside in Tibet!!!!
“From double white oak to sweetgum on creekbank” TOTALLY NOT KIDDING!!!
sigh
We lost an ICON over the week. Not much of a Chuck Norris fan, but he was a staple from my childhood on. From the 70’s action movies through the 80’s continuations and 90’s There was Chuck.
I’ma bettin’ that Keith Richards and Mick Jagger are starting to hear that tapping on the door since hearing about Chuck,,,
Maybe not,,,, Keith probably bypassed that event long ago: Death thinks he’s already been collected or something,,,, LOL
Somethin’ that hit me yesterday while boring holes (a quite boring job,,,,) Nothing is changing except the money,,, the lies and corruption are still with us, not one person has been indicted and likely never will be. Even the ‘List’, full of evidence and names numbers times places,,,, Crickets from on high,,,(well, not crickets, but protests that ‘its not that important,,,’ )
Nothing is gonna change until it all comes apart and people realize that THEY are the source, not the “leadership” or “Governments” of the world.
BY CONSENT,,,
but consent can be passive, even with ignorance (how many people around you can explain anything credible about reasons for Governance? I’ll wait while you figure it out,,,,)
Yah,,,,a bare handful if that many in a count of 100000 peeps can give moderate to defined answers. Most are spewing garbage they were taught (badly) or guessing, if not outright blowing the question off as meaningless.
But in someways, thats even better,,, It shows that we really do NOT need to be ‘Governed’, and that most people can get through the day without needing a chaperone.(though,,,If things go sideways, many of those without chaperone will likely die through Darwin events. Our current society is geared to support,,, take away that support and people get sorta nutzoid and the stoopid will shine quite brightly for a brief moment.) there are always exceptions, the only problem being, that we have allowed our DUTIES to be taken over by others, and now expect that those duties will be done corrrectly and justly.
Um, no,,, It doesn’t quite work like that, do it? There was a time when a criminal could expect to be pillaried at the least end of justice, and HUNG on the hard end of same. Or even beheaded. There was time when individual squabbles would be settled by ‘Gentlemans duel’ (and there are even records of Ladies having their version.) with rules to how such were handled, written by societal norms, NOT GOVERNMENT.
Ah,,, but here I go again,, the surly curmudgeon, whistful for ‘the old days’, that were and weren’t as good as I recall. Yes, doubled up memories,,,, I do recall when the Medical Industry TRIED to fix people up, not maintain illnesses. I do recall when FOOD was actually GOOD and GOOD FOR YOU. (with all things in moderation, but thats timeless advice) I recall when automakers actually made CARS, not 2 owner junkbuckets slated for the scrap yards in 7 years (and designed so that NO ONE can work on them without specialty tools that have to be model exact.) So yes,, I do see the good in the past.
But there is good on this end too. The fact that information flows so freely that we can see the corruption of the Governments and Bankers and Corporations. Maybe we feel helpless in dealing with it (They are quite large afterall and very much into selfpreservation. They may not be individuals, but individuals created them, and that survival instinct is ingrained at creation.)
And, the whole JIT delivery system that has evolved since the 80’s,,, Computer systems streamlining everything (but making it so corruption can grow as well) and making our world just a bit smaller every passing year. For example: early 90’s,,, had an Aussie GF in So-Cal. She was denied re-up on her student Visa and had to return home. The Phone bill between us was near $1000 for the first month after her return. We both decided that a long distance relationship was not gonna work like that. 10 years later, emails became ‘the norm’ and said communications became so cheap as to nearly FREE.25 years now, and Long Distance Phone calls are non-existant, only country to country calls get added billing and even there, those are being rapidly replaced by “Facetime” “Zoom calls” and other internet based communications.
The world shrinks more and more, Ideas grow in fertile minds world wide and communication makes collaberation easier. IDEAS are taking off.
The downside, The creative streaks we had when everyone was downtrodden are weak and pitiful. Listen to ‘popular music’ out now as an example of how ‘simple’ minds have become.
At least we have 3D printing now. ROFL (thats acutally a good thing and one I need to delve into more for metal casting and the like. faster cleaner mold designs .)
The world moves on, the last generation gets the dregs of the one prior, and entropy reveals itself in the strangest of ways. Yet we stand on the shoulders of Giants. Giants that made our world possible. Its a double edged sword of ideas flying though me head today, spurred by thoughts of a ICON leaving this realm for the next. God Speed Chuck!
LLLLL!

Scrublands
Historically, the place I reside was called Dry Hill. It ain’t, but thats beside the point. Its more recent naming is Briarhill. THAT is as accurate a description as I can think of.
I walked the perimeter of my property this eve, geo-cacheing the outer points and recording the GPS coordinates. I will be filing paperwork here soon, after I discuss things with lawyer and Civil engineer I know (the latter for how to word the boundery description with those coordinates, and minor landmark BUT PERMANENT points )
I made reference that I am not very trusting of anyone local here recently. and the person I am least trusting of is my cousin purchasing Da’s house. Not that he has made noize that would indicate deceptive moves, but there are little verbal ticks that have been said that tells me “COVER YOUR ASS!!!” See, Unk and I are co-owners of the property my house sits on: problem being, thats a VERBAL AGREEMENT and his son was not a part of that agreement. IF, God forbid, something were to happen to HIS Da, well, I could easily see him and self getting into a reall frackus over “who owns what”. No thanks,,, I want this in writing, with certifications and FILED AND RECORDED accordingly. Its been a back and forth thing. Unk wants to just sign it all over to me: son tells him ‘no’, then its back again,,, (and Unk can lilve here for the rest of his life for all I am concerned,,, I’d like to split the property in two anyways, for the Address things, and getting it OFF the list of ‘private drive’ and onto a county road. Get the Magistrate off his limey ass and do something about that damned hill. that would open up the doors for the county to do something about BadCuz’s dawgs as well.) I’m tired of the pinball effect its having on my spirit. I was up till 4am last night, tossing and turning with the varied levels of anxiety the whole thing (property issues, both mine and Da’s, Da and his medical state, Da and his MENTAL state, WORK BILLS,,,, on and on and on it went until I sat my ass down, glass in hand, and said “what can you do about ANY of this at 4 AM? Notta damned thing,,, GO TO BED!!! ” The glass helped, but the talk did more. I woke a little less stressed.
And to boot,,, I know all of this is just one more test in this fucked up krazy ‘reality’ before I can move on. I feel like I am failing this one… I don’t like that.
I’m a simple man. I like things balanced and predictable. I can handle ‘not predictable’,,, where I fail the most is “TRUST” . Been burned a few times, and when things are ‘real world’ with clerical errors and vague wordings, and HUMAN NATURE inspired manipulations,,, Yeah,,, VERY MUCH the curmudgeon expecting the knife in the kidneys,,,, I don’t like being like that, which is why I usually keep my dealings much closer to the chest, small and of low value. (to the world in general, but plenty valuable to me.)
This too shall pass.
And when it does,,, I will look back on it just like I do when runing whitewater. Looks hellish up top, then at the bottom of the run, nearly tame and I ask myself what the problem was. I know I am a cautious person, but there is a point where caution becomes COWARD,,, and I don’t like to think I am that. I risk, just look at the turns my chapters have made over the last 35 years. Mechanic, sound dood, Production company, National Touring Sound dood, national touring MANAGER,,,, I didn’t do those things because I trained my ass off in some school,,, I learned them by jumping in, both feet, not holding my nose and DOING…. Thats not cowardice,,, And I do not like the idea that I may be getting cowardly in my older phases…
So, whats holding me down right now? Lord, thats a talll question. INSECURITY. Holding the line, with anchors in place, but one main anchor is loose and sliding along the sea-floor. DAD. His fighting whatever the hell got him and slowly (RAPIDLY) going downhill, has upset my balance something feirce. I have been unloading on Brudda B more and more lately. I, and this took some doing on my part, let one of my sisters take over things for a spell (She IS much better at the paperwork crap,, I tend to be better at the face to face people stuff: so long as “I’d rather eat your spleen with a spoon” look is the effect needed. ) It has allowed me to focus more on my issue of the property, Which is much needed to be done. But I feel like I chintzed out a bit: dropping the ball so to speak.
I am not as stoic as I would like to believe. I also think the Stoics of old would find this Bureaucratic world flat unbearable.Shit just does NOT need to be this frellin’ complicated.
Anywhoobamajigawitz,,, its getting late, I’m actually ready to view the inside of my eyelids tonight, not toss and turn in turmoil. (exhaustion? Mehbe,,,,) And the world at large continues to spin, orbit the sun and proceed apace at near a million miles per hour through the universe.
i’z just anudder sparklie in the great big wide,,,, this ain’t reality,,,, thats waits for later,,,

Letters,,,
Not a good post, nor a bad one, but not upbeat by anymeans.
To my Fellow Ameri-CANS: If you use propane, get your bottles filled, ASAP. The price is set to go through the daggum roof soon (like week or less) and could take years to return to current stage, if ever,,, That leads to the next “do it ASAP”. If you aren’t already in gold and silver,,, Probably too late,,, but its never too late for brass lead and copper. Or maybe I should restate that,, It may be getting scarce again,,, jump now, if ya can. My current spread, I’m going for the small caliber stuff and loading hard. I don’t see us getting into routine bloodshed on these shores, but a 22LR can do double duty in many ways. And yes, people, a well placed 22LR can kill many things quite a bit larger than Feral Mutt. Key words,,, WELL PLACED.
If you are a reloader, get your powders and primers,,, With the current price points of anything even partly made with petro products, things are gonna go sky high, if you can even get them. And with current admin shenanigans, Producers are gonna focus on the Contracts over general/civvie production.
NOW,,, the letter to the other ones,,,
Dear Corporate Banking schemes,,, ALL of the fun and games y’all are pushing, to keep the bubble of your own making from popping,,,, Guess what? A large majority of the world are onto your shit. WE SEE YOU!! and we don’t really give a flying fuck if your world comes apart. You’ve already fucked ours over pretty damned good, and your toadies in the GOVs of the world are seen as well. Many of us out here in the tall grass of the wild world are getting real close, if not already at, the “Let it fucking burn!” stage. We know the ‘real world’ will be just fine; a little roadweary, but just fine. We don’t NEED you to keep the wheels rolling. You just made it easier, until y’all got greedy and ‘wanted it all”
See, We get a vote too. And many of us are sick to death of your shit, and wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire. You’d be damned lucky we didn’t toss aome gasoline on you if we found you in such a state. Fact of the matter, y’all are making it so tossing that gas would be more expensive, and using a bullet would be too merciful as well as expensive. I got more important shit to use that stuff on/in.
So go ahead, keep pushing the knights and bishops around the board, tossing the pawns into the fray and protecting your ever growing pile of fake money. We already know whats in our future, lean and dirty as you intended with the “own nothing” mantra you preached. Well, we do own things,,, and we know how to make what we don’t own in many cases. We will be alright, and maybe, after you fucknutz burn it all down, we, the people of the world can rebuild it again, hopefully keeping in mind how this one burned to the ground and keeping you and your spawn at bay.
yah,,, its been that sort of day. more laters

Different thinks
I prefer to think I am just Joe Average in the grand scheme of things, but there are parts of my mind, where I know, without a doubt, I am “the Outlier”. the “ODD”
Religious sidethinks are such. Or maybe not ‘religious’ but SPIRITUAL
I don’t see us as “Bodies”, these are just electrochemical skin suits we use to explore this ‘reality’, and like any machine, they wear out. Sometimes, the interface wears out before the skinsuit does (dementia) but more often, the suit fails, or something catastrophic happens, or some biochemical glitch happens (cancer) or,,,,
Fact is, there is only ONE way out of this reality, Even those that transcend have to die to leave this prison we call life.
Death doesn’t scare me. It hasn’t since 92 and I don’t need to delve into that story again,,, but it doesn’t scare me. Facing the death of a loved one,,, Someone outside, looking in, might even say that I am ‘cold blooded’ with how I respond to someone dying. Its not “cold”, its acceptance: that shell laying before me is NOT the person I know/knew,,, they have moved on,,, I envy them,,,
get that? I ENVY THEM.
They get to go home.
Maybe they get recycled back into the system, but even there, I envy them because now they get another chance at ‘doing it better’. Maybe they will, maybe they will keep the same pattern, maybe worse,,, but it doesn’t matter because they are on another time line and trying again, or back with IS and outside of space time. That last is THE end goal,,, return home, leave this hell behind.
Because I do look at this place as a living hell. One that is designed to obscure the DIVINE SPARK we truly are,, The Living hell we see around us, the intermittent sparks of happiness that we get as ‘carrots’, watching the growing madness of a world that has forgotten there is more than the next purchase or high. A world led by the dopamine addicted and power deluded.
LOL
Our goal is to reawaken that Spark, despite the trials and temptations thrown our way. Doesn’t matter what religion you adhere to, THAT is the point of all of them no matter what the wording is.
Sounds like a shit-ton of liberal tripe, don’t it? I told ya, I was raised liberal: I got better. But my spirit remains, longing for that light of truth, redemption, justice, whatever you wanna call it.
Had I been born (and I might have been) back in the early 1000’s, I would have fallen right in with the Cathars. Had I been born post 0AD, I would have been right in there with the Gnostics (Valentinian sect most likely) Had I been born prior, I might have been Zorastrian, Or Buddhist, and I probably have been Buddhist in one form or another. No, I do not think this is my first ‘cycle’ Too many memory clips that “aren’t mine” that I can’t explain away with “Something I read’ or “some part of a movie I saw”.
welcome to a dose of woo-woo eh?
I’m tappin’ this out, something on my mind (Brudda B knows it. NO, not waffling,,, but am wasting time waiting for the moment.) and trying to figure the best approach. You get the vent of ideas in this forum as I juggle this that and the other in preparation.
And now, after a slew of text messages have obliterated my train of thoughts,,, (yes, plural) I reach a rather ubrupt end to this rather short missive of nothing in particular. Love’y’all, Take care out there.
