I called and checked on my nitrogen today.


To quote a somewhat popularized format;

I HAS N2!

Almost. It shipped from the warehouse today, and is supposed to be here friday.

About four and a half feet tall and weighing in at 200+ pounds. (Going to have to buy a wheeler for it. More $$ :roll: )

6000psi of fun in a bottle! 8)

Feeding this thing is costing more than building it.

Still cold -39C saturday morning, -30C this morning. This is one of the longer cold snaps I've ever seen. Temps are without windchill.

Where's this global warming thing I keep hearing about? Sure as hell isn't happening here. :(

I'm starting to really hate winter. :evil:

Ha...it ain't happenin' anywhere...'course you knew that already. You're in the Calgary, Alberta area arent you Gippeto? Banff is probably my all time favorite destination in the whole world...so beautiful, so inspiring. Good memories for me in your neck of the woods.... :wink: One of my trips there was back in '94 and it was about the temps you're seeing now....really weird deathly feeling cold, my mustache was frozen with ice in a matter of seconds....light snow powder falling from an apparently clear sky.... :shock: Walked on Lake Louise....8)

...sorry bout the thread hijack....carry on...

Nope. Although, I was in Calgary last weekend, and it was pleasantly just above freezing. :D

I'm a "fair piece" north.

Banff IS pretty darn nice isn't it. :)

Yeah, that would be like a brisk spring day for you guys, huh Gippeto. BTW, I notice you went back to your pinocchio cartoon avatar.
