Thursday night – Booga and preppers

Just back from a quick trip to the city for a great partner meeting. didn’t get to see many folk soutside the meeting because I had to get back here. I did manage to meet Max for a quick beer and dinner as he’s prepping for leaving for Burnign man tomorrow. He’s helping drive their 5 ton 6 wheeled truck Booga out to black rock with a team of 3 other drivers. (it can only go 45 mph).

 

here’s an ealrier project that I helped max with a year or so back..

 

 

   I spent a very happy hour helpign the guys try to debug a last minute electronics issue with the LED lighting. they were still at when I had to leave for the airport. I’m betting they have it fixed by now..  It was great hanging out with Max… and a bunch of our old friends.. Doc Adventcha’, ben. perry. terry. flip and a bunch of new folks

it was a beautiful chaos..

i got to the airport in planty of time.. but the TSA guys were down to one lane, and the precheck line was closed … so I had to wait for nearly an hour.. Barely made my plane.  Ran to the plane and they shut the door behind me.. Whew.. Had a great conversation with a JetBleu Pilot Randel which made the flight really nice.

Just as we were landing, the episode of Doomsday Preppers that I mentioned came on.. I was able to see the first half of the part with by buddies Tom and Beth..  It was great to see. I thought they did really well.. They looked great and showed some amazing stuff !  It was so fun watching it on a plane !


 

The funny thing is that they got on the show because they have awesome skills.. but the way those skills got to the attention of the shows producers is more indirect. A woman I know via burnign man casts for that show. If anyone out there is a prepper.. please let me know.. and I’ll pass on your contact info to my friend Jen…

ok.. 1:30 am.. time for bed

nite all nite sam
