Wedding After months of a crabby fiance, and more money than I want to think about was spent, the wedding is finally over. Lisas grand vision was wonderfully executed by everyone involved, which was quite a few bridesmaids, family, friends, and a morlock. The groomsmen and ushers did their job and kept me laughing the entire time with random comedy routines. Quite a few comments were made on their ability to provide laughs consistently for such a long period of time. This was of course due to the proper combination of shenanigans and brouhaha I measured out before choosing each wedding party member, keeping my panic level well below 60% for the entire event. The pre party got everyone sufficiently warmed up for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, which meant everyone was well acquainted for the wedding and reception. Despite my lack of an audio booster for the music, the reception was a great success and I finally learned how to do the chicken dance. Thank you to everyone involved for your help in making our wedding such a wonderful memory. We'll be thinking of you all while we're in Aruba enjoying the beach and the sun and you're stuck at work in 50° weather.

Great wedding, definitely the most crazy reception I’ve ever been too, we had a blast and was a great ending to all the prior boring weddings we attended this year. Congratulations Both now make some babies!

Congrats Brisa! You're wedding was a lot of fun. The wedding party and I took the liberty of raiding your presents. Don't worry, we left you a couple candlesticks and a blender.

Congrats dude!! When should we expect to see some Lloyd spawn??

I don't know but the first time i see a Lloyd spawn step outside the Lloyd compound, i'm taking it out with a sniper rifle.

No way, it'll be able to psychically stop bullets via NASA spy satellite lasers.

That was a lot of fun, I haven't had so much fun since I left there. I only can hope that everyone can make it to my wedding so it can be just as interesting. Except we will be going to area 51 and Vegas before the wedding! Congradulations, have alot of kids insure your income with them. Buy a lot of land and have them crush grapes. It was awesome to see everyone been over 4 years. And a pleasure to meet Mrs. Lloyd for the first time or should I say MR. PENVOSE. Lisa you have an awesome laugh don't let anyone make fun of it except for me.

With my projector missing a proper 5.1 sound system, I decided on the HTS3555 after seeing it for $190. Not only does it upconvert my format of choice (DivX) to 1080i, it's able to play the files from a DVD or USB thumb drive. I was surprised to find a quality (and heavy) center speaker, with the 4 others more than sufficient for my tone-deaf ears. The sub woofer is predictably weak, but sufficient when maxed out. After an hour of splicing and routing speaker wire behind the wall, I finally had proper audio in the Morlock theatre to compliment my now mounted projector with patented licence-plate cable concealer. Now I just need Whineyho to buy the HD DVD drive for his Xbox360 so I can steal both and have a complete HD theatre setup for under $1,000.

Do you EVER run out of money??? I'm gonna cry again.

I believe before the Part 3 update you'll need a beta tester on your Home theatre, I’ll gladly volunteer for a minimal fee of Kettle favored popcorn. And I hope you use the projecter at the Lan parties; connected to the server as an observer.

When you come to Mississippi we'll compare notes on Mississippi theatre vs wanna be theatre.

NASA Jobs At least 5 of my friends forwarded me this job opening at NASA today, 4 of which enjoyed pointing out I'm exactly 1 inch taller than the maximum allowed. My dream of working for NASA still lives, but I've already accepted I won't actually be in space, especially after learning of my inability to fly a helicopter and not get sick. Earth-bound support duties would be more than enough to scratch the itch, and Lisa is more than happy to move back to Ohio when I get my job at Glenn Research Center. I'm hoping to expand that to include Florida before I finally get the urge to switch jobs.

After a day at the renaissance fair with the Kelleys and Whineyho, my bachelor party began. Senator Kelley setup a phased party beginning at the local Hooters which was obviously not chosen for the food selection. Next up was a visit to Luckys bowling alley/arcade which I had never bowled at before, and was impressed with the lane couches, ball speed clocking, and the wide variety of girl drinks our server was able to provide on demand. It was quickly proven the more intoxicated you were, the better of a bowler you became. The final phase was the classic strip club, which only the brave Whineyho attended with me. His metrosexual charm and finely tuned ability to befriend anyone makes him the best stripper lure of any of my friends, and thus was the best choice for the final phase. A good time was had by all, and followup bachelor party is definitely in order.

The girl kissing you in the hooters picture looks distgustingly like Lisa. That's just wrong.

Fun times indeed, I hope you used your mousepad to aid you with you posting this!

HC1500 After providing shelter for two consecutive morlocks, my empty first floor was left without a purpose (aside from LAN parties of course). A visit to the Leinnintigers a few months ago put the idea of a basement theatre in Lisas head, and about a week ago she made the mistake of mentioning how she'd like to have one. That very night I found this deal on a HC1500 projector with decent brightness/contrast and pulled the trigger. What was once a dark and musty morlock cave is now alive with 110" of 1080i goodness (points for guessing the movie). While 48" shy of Ron's and embarrassingly low-quality for Duane, it fit my cheap bastard pricing requirement perfectly. Now I just need to get a proper hardware setup to replace my temporary cat house projector stand.

Top notch stand there, Brad. And doncha mean "pull the plug"? :P

Umm. I get the bonus points! That movie is "Stealth" when he's trying to get fuel mid-air! Damn, I'm good. I'm also crying inside as I miss my projector. Bulb went bye-bye and I can't afford a new one. I went from 123" of goodness theatre action to a lowly 36" of TV sitting on a cart in the middle of my theatre room. A moment of silence please...
Excelcier
When you find a better one with 1080P i'll take this one off your hands. BTW it's stealth the Canadian is right.
Senator Kelley
Soon your eyes will adjust to the darkness and you will forget the warmth of the sun.

SpaceBrad Stavos has been secretly working on this masterpiece for some time now, and he finally decided to share it with me. A better use of the original photo there is none. I already know you're going to ask if you can use it as your background so I'll go ahead and proactively approve it.
User Comments for 09-19-2007:
You can thank Google Picasa2 for finding it for me. Otherwise it would of been lost forever. You know it's real because that's the classic Brad pose. I expect all his wedding Photo's to look similar.
StavosWS6
Speaking of wedding photos... that better be proudly displayed somewhere at the reception.
Duane
Pretty nice handy work there Stavos! I too agree with Duane that it should be at the reception but I will settle for nothing less than a Fathead of it hanging behind the altar.

If you're stalking me you've noticed the Gnome Cam has been in a blackout for the past 7 days. The BT-176WC camera that has served me well for over 2 years finally decided to bite the dust and only display melted images. Anticipating a failure in the near future based on previous issues I had a cheap eBay knockoff camera ready to go that I finally got around to installing. As you can see I got a great shot of me installing it, which is always a treat, but more importantly you'll notice the crappy quality. Evidently the factory that built this camera is operating in a time bubble sometime prior to 1979 as the quality is slightly less than home video cameras of that era. Rest assured I have an eBay alert set for my trusty BT-176WC in the hopes I'll find it at an affordable price. Until then enjoy the memories of disco fever and use your imagination to fill in the missing details.
User Comments for 09-18-2007:
From the looks of the picture of you installing the camera, you are well on your way to becoming a Morlock. Has lisa kicked you out of the upstairs?
MorlockPrime
When will we see multiple Gnome cams?

Wow, that camera does suck, lol...

Disturbing Gnome With the Morlock all growed up he decided to have a housewarming party to celebrate his move down the street and food chain. In addition to the expected beer and burgers, the party offered up such exotic things as hookah pipes and special brownies. To help him better fit in with the neighborhood, Lisa bought an appropriately disturbing gnome for his housewarming gift. A much more satisfying gift than the kegerator he also received.

With my first efficient power supply up and saving the world, another cheap deal suckered me into saving the world yet again. This time the energy savings was only 12 watts for my home server, bringing the total for both computers from 300 watts to 264 watts. I've decided to hold at two so I can avoid having my power supply fetish cross over into a mental treatment required situation. It also goes without saying that if you need a power supply in a pinch, I've now got plenty of spares.
User Comments for 09-13-2007:
Looks like I'll be running my computers extra hard this weekend to offset Brad's new savings. Global warming my ass, its cold as hell outside...

I'll just turn TransAm for 20secs and it will destroy everything Brad has tried to accomplish toward the environment

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 09-12-2007 All About Dollar Coins View Webcam for 09-12-2007 1 COMMENT
$1 Presidential Coin Forced to make another Mountain Dew purchase after seeing EternalOne drinking a bottle at work again, I headed to the vending machine and discovered I was fresh out of single dollar bills. Fortunately the machine next to the pop machine makes change for $5 bills. For my $5 bill, 5 gold colored coins with John Adams on the front tumbled into the change tray. Fearful of a government conspiracy to rid the world of the Sacagawea dollar I had finally grown to accept, I ran to EternalOne in a panic and showed him my discovery. Unimpressed, he returned to his bottle of Mountain Dew and I consulted the giver of knowledge. Turns out Sacagawea wasn't as popular as the US Mint had hoped in replacing short-life $1 bills with longer-life coins. The success of the state quarters prompted a similar attempt with a presidential $1 coin program. Even though it feels a bit Canadian, I've grown to like dollar coins and was glad to also learn Sacagawea will still make up 1/4 of all dollar coin production for the life of the presidential coin program. And although it's more fun to actually say it, I thought I'd type Sacagawea one last time to make it a nice round total of 4 times for this post.
