Day 193 - Basketblah, Perhaps He Didn't See It Meant Sun Penetration Factor, Did He Recommend Turning on the Beater Bar For Deep Component Cleaning?, A Pile of SyFy Pun Plots, Any Witnesses of These So-Called Witnesses?, What's Latin for 'Looks Like a Big Thingy'?, and The Bone Luge And Other Boneheaded Ideas

9:43 AM Mr. Silver
"Results of Super-High-Tech Analysis to Fail to Improve Popular But Essentially Poorly Designed Game" 
9:46 AM Mr. Blue
Basketball is dumb.
If you're mediocrely talented but 6'10" you'll do great. If you're an impeccable athlete but 5'11" you're going to suck
9:49 AM Mr. Silver
It didn't evolve with the players.
By concept its fine, but it's so obviously flawed.
My only joy from basketball is closing my eyes and listening to the shoes squeak.
It’s viscerally amusing



9:51 AM Mr. Brown
Well the UV was crazy yesterday
9:52 AM Mr. Brown
Brown Jr. had 110 sunscreen on and still got a dark tan
9:53 AM Mr. Silver
Is he orange?  (pictures Mr. Brown applying tanning solution instead of screen.)
9:53 AM Mr. Brown
LOL
He has a farmer’s tan
He wears a swim shirt when he goes swimming, and Mrs. Brown was the one putting the screen on.
She is red right now.
lol
9:54 AM Mr. Silver
Put it this way...Silver Jr., the missus and I were in a lot of sun in Florida, for 6 days, wearing SPF 30 and barely picked up any tanning.
9:54 AM Mr. Brown
Wow
I think it has to do with the makeup of your skin too. I tan but never seem to get really dark.
9:57 AM Mr. Silver
Oh, we burn...
9:57 AM Mr. Blue
SPF 110 shouldn't allow any sun through.
9:57 AM Mr. Silver
It's a bad batch.  Has to be
9:57 AM Mr. Blue
Or it got washed off in water/sweat
9:58 AM Mr. Silver
Nod
9:58 AM Mr. Blue
I tested SPF 25 once by putting a dab on my arm and going to the beach... I was as red as my car with a little white dot where the sunscreen was.
9:58 AM Mr. Silver
That’s what happened the previous trip to Florida...frolicking in the ocean, everywhere the sunscreen washed off I got burned.
10:02 AM Mr. Brown
This was the spray one.  It might not be spraying enough out .
10:36 AM Mr. Silver
"Killz Spray Wood Stain, Cherry.  SPF 110." 






11:17 AM Mr. Brown
This client's IT guy told him how to clean the fans in his home PC and now it will not turn on.
11:18 AM Mr. Blue
Nice
11:20 AM Mr. Silver
"He told me warm soapy water or Murphy’s Oil Soap!"
11:23 AM Mr. Brown
They used a vacuum cleaner, so who knows what jumpers and plugs came out?
11:25 AM Mr. Silver
My guess is that the customer showed initiative and saw the little fan on the metal block inside, saw it was all dusty in there and took it off to clean it too. 
Vacuum on the motherboard?  Heh. 
11:26 AM Mr. Brown
Yeah.  Vacuuming the motherboard with a full-powered vacuum never goes well.
11:27 AM Mr. Silver
"…and you know those copper pot scrubber things? well..."



11:34 AM Mr. Silver
11:33 AM Mr. Silver
Big uns
Of course, just saying "Giant wombat" is fun by itself.
50 giant wombats sounds like a “Stupiduel” attack.
11:43 AM Mr. Blue
50 Giant Wombats vs. 50 Giant Sloths”, Saturday on SyFy!
11:44 AM Mr. Brown
Wow
12:07 PM Mr. Silver
What was their latest shlock...like "Piranhaconda"?
12:10 PM Mr. Blue
Yeah
12:15 PM Mr. Silver
I'm guessing they are still running their "Submit a SyFy movie idea" in the webpage. 
Or maybe they haven't run out of the original entries yet.
12:23 PM Mr. Silver
New from SyFy "Vole-cano!"  Who can escape the rain of voles, stoats, weasels and ferrets?!?
12:23 PM Mr. Blue
Heh
12:23 PM Mr. Silver
"A mysterious mountain in the tropics bursts forth thin furry horror on an unsuspecting team of experts and/or teen campers."
   Alice "I'm telling you, we just need to climb a tree."
   Biologist "Are you mad?  What if they are able to fly?" 
"Vole-cano II: The Fur Flies!”  Coming soon to SyFy!
12:27 PM Mr. Silver
And this Christmas "Mole-cano: Hill of Terror"  
We at SyFy swear they are essentially different films! 
12:28 PM Mr. Brown
I never realized that St Louis sits beside a volcano.
12:28 PM Mr. Blue
It doesn't.
12:30 PM Mr. Brown
It does, unless the show I watched was wrong.
12:30 PM Mr. Blue
Which volcano?  There's the new Madrid fault in southern Missouri?  Is that what you mean?  That's a fault line, not a volcano.
12:31 PM Mr. Brown
Trying to remember
12:31 PM Mr. Silver
"Fault-cano: Doom of St. Louis!"
I'd watch that one, actually.
12:32 PM Mr. Blue
Starring Christopher "Kid" Reid and Anthony Michael Hall
   "We have to evacuate the city now!" 
   "Pssh maaaaan. You crazy dawg."
And Octomom as the Mayor of St. Louis.
12:33 PM Mr. Silver
(tense faces lit by green CRT even though they are 35 years out of use)  
   Geologist "That fault could blow at any time!"
   Extra "Faults don't 'blow'."
   Seismologist "Shhh"
12:34 PM Mr. Blue
   Mayor "I've got to find my children!"  
   "Maaaan. I picked da wrong day to skip work!"
12:34 PM Mr. Brown
Is there a mountain next to St. Louis?
12:34 PM Mr. Blue
No, not at all, and I can't fathom how anyone could believe there was a mountain near St. Louis
12:34 PM Mr. Silver
   (Lieutenant, watching display "The mountain is still tracking on the arch sir...estimated impact 90 seconds."
12:35 PM Mr. Silver
   (Nervous corporal, finger on red button  "General?  The nuke?  Sir, should I fire?!?!"
This is hot stuff...we should write for Syfy
12:36 PM Mr. Brown
I think it was a different St. Louis.
12:37 PM Mr. Silver
Different?  OK.
"St. Lou-lantis: Undersea Mountain Invasion", the newest from SyFy!
12:37 PM Mr. Brown
That’s in the Netherlands.  That’s the St. Louis I’m thinking of I guess.
LOL
12:38 PM Mr. Blue
The *Caribbean* Netherlands
I know that if I heard "Saint Eustatius, Caribbean Netherlands" on TV I’d automatically think "St. Louis, Missouri" in my head.  :-/
12:44 PM Mr. Brown
They only said St. Louis.
I must have missed the rest
LOL
12:47 PM Mr. Brown
It was a show on places we build, like right under a volcano, or on a fault line, or in Tornado Ally.  Most of them places we knew the danger but still put a city or town right by it.
12:50 PM Mr. Silver
We build under volcanoes?
12:50 PM Mr. Brown
At the base, in the flow line.
lol
12:52 PM Mr. Silver
(Realtor showing features to house hunters) "And the cone opening lets in the natural light.  Oh, and the kids all love this...the floor in the basement is hot lava.  Ever play that?  Heh"
12:52 PM Mr. Blue
Heheheh



2:13 PM Mr. Blue
So. Sandusky: guilty or innocent?  Not what you think, but what will the jury do?
I figure they'll find him guilty on a handful of counts, and not guilty on a handful of others.
2:14 PM Mr. Brown
In cases where most of the stuff was from a long time ago, that stuff can get thrown out, usually.
So he will get it on most of the latest counts, I think.
2:17 PM Mr. Blue
There really isn't any evidence, other than witness and victim testimony, and a few creepy letters.
2:18 PM Mr. Brown
Yeah, some older stuff is harder to take as evidence, especially when its witness accounts.
2:23 PM Mr. Blue
Weird case, considering that the guy that decided not to press charges when things first came out 10 years ago disappeared 5 years ago, and his car was found at JFK airport or something, and another witness now has dementia and can't testify.
2:28 PM Mr. Silver
   (Defense attorney addressing the jury) "Unfortunately for the Prosecution’s case, most of the so-called victims are in asylums, dead or missing."
   (Judge) "Wait...most?  How many is 'most'?  There are 127 people listed here."
2:28 PM Mr. Blue
   (Prosecuting attorney) "It’s the damnedest thing.  126, your honor"
2:28 PM Mr. Silver
   (Judge) "Well where is #127?"
   (Prosecution) "Hiding in his secret bunker.  Is this relevant your honor?"
   (Judge) "YES IT’S RELEVANT!!!"



3:06 PM Mr. Brown
3:10 PM Mr. Blue
"Giant, misshapen penis"
3:16 PM Mr. Brown
Yeah, great name
LOL
3:16 PM Mr. Blue
That was also my nickname in high school!



3:27 PM Mr. Silver
Is there a type of anti-bucket that I can make a list for to put this on?
3:29 PM Mr. Blue
Stupid
3:31 PM Mr. Brown
Definitely stupid:  It does nothing for the drink.  Just a novelty.  You could do that with a piece of metal.
3:34 PM Mr. Silver
"I could pour it through a bone, yes.  I could also get the deodorizer out of the urinal in the mens' room and pour it over that if you like.  Or there's this perfectly good glass thing the liquid is already in."
3:35 PM Mr. Blue
"If you like a more direct approach, we could pour it in an enema bag and shove it up your a**."
3:35 PM Mr. Silver
"Used?"
3:35 PM Mr. Blue
"Sure"
3:35 PM Mr. Brown
If you want to kill somebody you can do the enema thing.
3:35 PM Mr. Blue
Yep… Gets you drunk cheaper
How about this for a new shot: Have someone drink the drink and then puke it up into your mouth, baby-bird style.
3:36 PM Mr. Silver
Perfect!
Or people could just get the vodka vaporizer and get it over with.
"Here...breathe deep...hold it... (patron collapses) good booze, huh?"
