Craigslist Ideas, Volume 1
If I had money, I would do stupid things. Mostly involving Craigslist.
For instance, for a few grand I could buy this and paint it like Optimus Prime.

Grilled Corn. Very simple. Very easy.
Best damn grilled corn you've ever eaten. The trick is laziness, or as I like to call it "Efficiency".
Step 1) Get your corn on the cob from the grocery store, your local whatever, run across the street and poach it from the farmer with the least shotguns. Regardless, get yourself some corn.
Step 2) Resist the urge to touch the corn, peel the corn, pick out the strings, all of that. DO NOT TOUCH THE CORN! Take the whole ears and soak them in some water. If you're only doing a few ears, do it in a pitcher.
Step 2b) Get your charcoal barbeque hot. By the time your grill is hot the corn will have been soaking long enough. A half hour is a pretty good amount of time, but more or less really isn't that important. If it's a gas grill, you get to sit around for a half hour twiddling your thumbs instead of poking around in your charcoal barbecue.
Step 3) Corn --> Grill.
Step 4) Consume delicious beverage while corn cooks for a half hour. Turn it halfway through.
Step 5) Pull the corn off the grill, let it rest for a while so you don't burn yourself like a fool.
Step 6) Peel back the husk to create a convienent handle so you don't have to use any of those lame little corn handle things that never work good, add some butter and salt if you swing that way, and consume.

I have a blog now.
So apparently I'm fascinating..... and have to have a blog, so here it is.
This blog may contain automobiles, stupid machines, electronics & computers, delicious food cookery, adorable fuzzy animals (only occasionally, I promise!), ranting and raving on random topics, manly redneck stuff, nerdy pale geek stuff, and the otherwise day to day adventures of my life.
Today's adventures at hand: Lazy construction, foolig around, and barbecued stuff.

| Got four pallets of paving stones delivered in the morning. |
 |
| Grilled non-meats. |
|
| Grilled delicious corn. (There were cheeseburgers involved too made, home-ground chuck. They disappeared before photos) |
 |
| Started the new patio. I know it's not level, that's because I do not care. |
 |
| Remaining paver status: Mighty throne. |
