Hey Stovestomper!

“LOL
lizs is gonna kill Y2.

Lizs is a midwestern lady, under all that stove destroying skill. No 'relations' of that sort have or will occur due to a stove gift. Not that there is anything wrong with that...... ;-)”

“twigeater could make one, I know.
lizs????? No way! ;-)”

“ho-hum...



LOL!”

“HEY!!! You posted that while I was making my cutesy, innuendo comment above.

Hmmm... what have I done that would amaze you. Well, other than that....

I rigged a self-propelled lawnmower to run with a bungee cord (course, I am the whiz-shebang of bungee cords. one is holding on my Jeep's roof rack in one area)

I PUT A HARD DRIVE IN A COMPUTER! AND MEMORY, TOO!

phhhht!!!

“Hey lizs & twiggy

Did I sent y'all a MRE spoon this past Christmas?

Can't remember, but don't make me ask for them back! ;-) (inside joke)”

“I'm lookin' at mine, buster...and it's staying right here!”

“More phhhhttt! to Y2!

The only way Stovey is putting spots on my dresses is when he's cross dressing IF I'm kind enough to send him a dress (IF I have one)

Now, what the hell thread did that all come up on??!? LOL It was only yesterday or so: Stovey wanted to pull a Klinger to avoid jury duty.”

“They make cross dressers serve on juries here. There was a guy who tried that a few years ago, only to be found in contempt of court.”

“hmmm... I just got brown, plastic spoons, like from the Wal-Mart food cafe or somethin.

Therefore, I will not be spooning with Stovey!”

“Oh yeah, that's right, it was on that Apalachiacolian thread. hehehe”

“Hey, what did I do????? :0D”

“"I just got brown, plastic spoons" - lizs

lizs, lizs, lizs... that is a MRE long handled spoon.”

“LMAO... well what is MRE?

I figured I was missing on a some titanium wonder.

LOL!!! oops!”

“Meals Ready To Eat
US Army gave me a few cases after the hurricane. Each meal comes with a long handled spoon. Perfect for Mountain House meals.”

“you got mail..hope you have power point”

“Has not shown up yet.
I do not have PP on my home machine.”

“so sorry”

“PEPSI CAN STOVE
by Scott Henderson
[Last modified 19 May 2000]

The Pepsi Can stove is composed of four parts: three pieces made from soda cans and some foil tape. Two soda can bottoms are the exterior pieces. The upper can is turned upside down and fits over the lower can. The center "bowl" of the upper can is cut out making a large hole for easy fuel filling and lighting. Small burner holes are made around the perimeter of the top section. A cylinder made from the wall of a third soda can serves as an interior wall to the stove, thus the stove has a hollow double wall construction like the Trangia. Heat resistant foil tape holds the two exterior pieces together and prevents flame leaks.

Pepsi-Cola Company cans (Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Lipton ice tea, Slice, and Mug root beer) function best for the upper and low sections, although other brands of soda can be used. Why Pepsi? The circular ridge on the bottom of a Pepsi can is narrower than other brands and holds the interior cylinder tightly. The silver colored Pepsi One cans look best because they match the foil tape.

The design is largely influenced by the scout soda can stove described by LaMar Kirby and by the Shane Graber stove. These and other homemade stoves are linked at Ron "Fallingwater" Moak's site.

“I got a hummer today!!!!

:-)























OK, it was a little model in a geocache.

LOL! soooooooo cute!”

“someone at whiteblaze is looking for you

http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/showthread.php?t=12356”

“wow, Stovey's reputation preceeds him.

I guess he lost his website cuz he had the hurrican and had to rebuild.

The above is a general rendering of Whiteblaze talk. lol... not EXACTLY right, anyhoo :-)”

“There once was a man named Stovestomper
He hit all the trails... was a romper
He had himself a harem
Said they liked to bare'm
But that tale, well, was a womper.”

“I do not kiss and tell, Miss Smartypants. ;-)


Thanks Ewker, I replied on WhiteBlaze.”

“Lol, Lizs!”

“Hey Stovestomper... What is the camping and hiking situation in Desoto NF?

Or camping along the Gulf Coast in general. My bag nights are about to skyrocket.”

“Unless you are a monkey, hiking in any woods around here is going to be very very difficult. We had this little hurricane blow most of the trees down last year.

The Black Creek Trail is still closed by the Forest Service as far as I know.

“Most campgrounds are either closed or filled with people living in tents and trailers.
This area is still very much a disaster area.

“Not a monkey, but I am the goat!

I'll be down there friday afternoon. Hope to have enough time to find a campsite before the sun goes down.”

“ooooh lala... Stovey and the Goat meeting up... mebbee.

Skeery!!

lol. I hope you guys do get a chance to meet. Remember, Goat, Stovey's been through Preston. Mebbee even Chatfield!”

“Yea! I was kinda scared of Preston. Kept hearing banjos playing the theme from Deliverance in the background.
.....AND I heard rumors that this lizs person lived there... ;-)”

“Yes stove, I grew up just north of Preston. And that is where I met Lizs and learned about this forum.

Funny how people who visit an area they are not use to sometimes hear that odd love tune.

No place in south east MN is quite as scary as that store I stopped at in your hometown. I think I was there to purchase 5 pounds of crawfish. While there, I noticed an outdated sun bleached box of corn flakes on the shelf. This was 12 years ago. Surely, that box survived last years storms.”

“crawdads = fish BAIT ;-)

I don't eat crawfish. Dipped too many of them out of very nasty drainage ditches for fish bait when I was a kid.”

“Stovie you've must have been eating the the straight tailed crawfish!”

“I was told that crawfish live in ponds. Crawdads live in ditches.

I figure the only diference is that the crawfish which chose to explore are considered crawdads.

No problem, I'll eat em. They ain't no worse than the goat steaks I ate in New Mexico last month.”

“You dang coona$$es will eat anything that doesn't eat you first. ;-)”

“LOL@straight tail! yup, don't eat em.

hehe...
