Kπ (and his mom) are bike riding in Croatia right now. 
Here's a 0" shoulder you don't wanna cross...

b1-67er: I'll bet there are some missing trees in that olive grove.

Bluish

b1-66er: Now playing at home.

Special K: How do you like it?

66: Let me put it this way: I don't want more.

K: Solid.

b1-67er: Maybe just a little bit more?

50¢ Paperback Tomorrow

b1-67er: $300 seems cheap for color night vision and 48 Mp

66: No kidding. 
This is the good part of living in the future.

67: That's true. While we don't have solar system colonization, we do have $30 drones the size of a credit card, and $300 color night vision goggles. Science fiction is cheaper than you'd expect.

b1-66er: Be sure to watch the video...


b1-67er: That butterfly wing film is definitely a little bit Text of Light (but more organized)

We're gonna need a hook of some sort

1 number to pull out of here:

b1-67er: That is a big number.  Could be a bit of a shocker if they abruptly de-distort the market by limiting index funds.

66: It's like having the pet goldfish you won with a ping pong ball in elementary school... That's now 400 pounds and eats 2 pounds of food a week...

... NOW what do you do?

67: Right.  I think you keep feeding it and hope it doesn't take your hand off before you die.

Keep your sheet on!

b1-66er: Be sure to listen to the interaction with Mission to hear the sound (near the end) 


Special K: Starliner is haunted. 

b1: I have to agree with that. 
"Cursed" seems like a possibility as well.

Maybe it's the planet's fastest haunted house.¹

K: Yes.

Knowing your limits

b1-66er: For b1-67er and Suttonhoo 
(Suttonhoo's in the volcano domain of Iceland right now.)

b1-67er: Flying near volcanos in Russian aircraft, in the fog, may be stacking too many risk factors.

Suttonhoo: Yeah. I probably would have stopped at "Russian," given the current state of world affairs

67: Yeah, if I'm a Russian oligarch I wouldn't go anywhere higher than a milk crate.

I guess that means you have to work at night...

b1-67er: I could watch salamanders in a wind tunnel all day. Great idea for figuring out what is happening.

Write it in cereal

b1-66er: Special K!


Special K: Evil and sad. 

b1: I'll use that as your epitaph on KTXT.
