   Can we get a torch making instructional video?

   Next year, I’ll make a few dozen torches and get a load of people to stand in front of City Hall with me, holding them. That, I think, would make a better Xmas card. And those without torches can bring pitchforks. We’ll do it on a dark night with a lot of snow. It’ll be beautiful.

   It’s a drive, but I’d shoot the video in Lansing instead of in front of the court house.

   Are torches technically legal? It seems like if you’re allowed to openly carry an assault rifle in Michigan you should be able to carry a torch.

   Pick a vacant lot, build a fake building, set fire to it. (With the approval of the Fire Department.)

    Mark, have you thought of writing on the drone insurgence? I wonder how many people in Ypsi got a private one for the holidays?

    Look out! Uh… Oh, no, LOOK UP! !

    Maybe this is a good reason to start wearing a helmet whilst walking down the street…. or while chillin’ in the yard…. LOOK UP for drones…. Should we be excited and interested or scared ?

    Applebees just had a problem where their “MistleToe Drone” inside the restaurant clipped off part of a news photographer’s nose: http://time.com/3624191/tgi-fridays-seasonal-mistletoe-drone-literally-cut-off-part-of-someones-nose/

    Where can we buy defensive combat gear locally, Mark? I miss Harry’s Army Surplus! Let’s open a survivalist’s sustainable preppers coop in ypsi. What do you think? We can make our money by opening a free store. :-)
