So last night I was using my lovely Sumble button (brought to you by StumbleUpon)  When I found a very VERY cool makeshift AirConditioner.

This morning, I sign on to read Toady's lovely updates, and I see things being brought to a standstill by the heat.  The Dry Heat.  Stagnat Air.....

Hrmmmmm....

So, Toady, Save Scamps!!!  Here are the blueprints (or the site which contains several different forms of blueprints)  Beat the heat!! (It's also cheap)

The origional, Just so you get the basic idea down:  http://www.gmilburn.ca/2005/06/15/geoffs-original-homemade-air-conditioner/
A closed system one, using a cooler:  http://www.gmilburn.ca/2005/06/15/petes-homemade-air-conditioner/

(I'd donate the 25-40 bucks for it myself, but My job stopped paying me 2 months ago....  And one guy keeps stealing my stapler...)

I suggest that you burn your office building down.

Anywho, seems like a great idea, if Toady doesn't end up electrocuting himself.

I suggest we pool our money and just move toady one to somewhere colder.

I would suggest Alaska but he'd be the smartest person there and thus would be named emperor.

I'm sure that comment is directed at the either their governess or the fact that they live in an icebox, but either way there are few places Toady isn't in that status.

 But yes, I propose our money goes to having Toady going to a nice place for a little bit to avoid the heat. Like an amusement park or some air-conditioned theaters. This heat making coding unbearable is a good excuse to get out.

 Of course, now this post is sounding a bit like Tarns mother.

 "Tarn! You spend too much time in the home! Get out more!"

Scamps is probably shedding hair all around Mr. Adams' house. I know what it's like.

I wonder if tarns mother visits these forums and comments on all the toady-worship around here.

[Okenido]

She'd be highly disapproving of the forums.

I am kinda disapointed that this topic developed rather quickly from "Lets give Toady a Air Conditioner" into "Lets just talk nonsense and derail the topic like it was an olympic event"

[Okenido]

You thought that would change in this topic good sir?

If it was, we would have a bunch of gold medals.

 The sad thing is, despite my efforts to be on topic and be amusing, I derail the topic for the derail people to take advantage of.

 But yes, no need to spend a hundred or more bucks on an air conditioner with summer halfway done. Just gotta get out for the occasions where the heat becomes oppressive and get some fresh air. If this was the first week where the heat got like this then it can't be too common of an event.

Toady's mother is so slim, only her angelic grace keeps her from falling down grates!

This is now an anti-"your mom joke" thread.

It is.

[Keiseth]

Wow, this is a fascinating device. I'm tempted to try to make one myself, though the fan I have is on the ground.

[Jreengus]

Screw Alaska if we move Toady anywhere it's got to be England. Portsmouth to be precise.
