Codename: Attoparsec

[gfish]

As if prep for grad school and the summer canoe expedition wasn't enough, I'm starting to work on a video project. It's been way too long since I've done any video work, and it's nice to get back in the saddle.

Today we filmed B-roll of a very beaten up Kia driving in circles, and ran wiring in it to power/control some, um, non-standard features. We'll get the switches mounted on the dash this week, then get started on building the CENSORED and the EXPURGATED devices.

You're totally making your own Transformers movie to beat Michael Bay to theaters, aren't you?

This will either be excellent or somebody's going to get killed. I can't wait.

Why does it say censored and expurgated? If it actually has meaning to the rest of your text, sorry. I just woke up and not much makes sense yet.

What's this about a summer canoe expedition?

Flamethrower. See if that reflective anti-laser/anti-photo-radar stuff they sell in the back of Car&Driver actually works. Drive through a one-way Extreme Tire Damage parking lot device. Later in the programme: what happens if you have a blowout at 55 mph? Front? Rear? Two, simultaneously? How about if someone makes a mistake and puts antifreeze in the oil? Or puts 8 quarts of oil in? What does it actually look like up close when someone opens the radiator cap on an overheated engine?

So the editing happened something like this?

"The Expurgated version of gfish's post?!?"
"The one without explosives!"
"The one without the...?!? They've all got explosives; it's a standard gfish mainstay!!!"
"Well I don't like them... they're too loud!"
...
"All right then, I'll remove them!
*rrriiipppp*
Anything else?"
"The missile launchers."
"The missile launchers, the missile launchers... right! Here they are!
*rrriiiipppp*
There you are, no explosives, no missile launchers! Here's your post... now read it!!"
"I can't read that, it's blotchy."
