Title: Mystery Photos!
Post by: Kerry on February 22, 2005, 12:32:23 AM
Look out world -- Kerry's actually creating a frivolous message thread!

I hatched a nutty idea while looking at some of my recent pictures.  If the thread dies on the vine I'll understand, but I thought I'd at least give it a shot.

I'll start.

Can you identify what this is a picture of?  I'll wait for a few guesses before posting the full-context picture.  If anybody gets it right, they'll be IT.  (Their turn to post a photo.)

I like this stuff. :thumb:

Dirty snow? The inside of an ash tray? A sand of some sort? The macro lens blur on the bottom tends to mean it was shot very close to the subject. I'm guessing whatever it is, it's very small.

You're kinda-sorta close on one of your guesses.

I won't say which one.  :roll:

No, I don't think it was too easy, the hilarious thing is I was just thinking about a cactus because on TV there was this Cowboy movie and some dude had just blown the top off of a cactus with a rifle. I clicked on the thread and ran down to Ed's pic and...lo and behold...there's the little prickly bumps onna cactus :lol: Ok, I'll have to wait till Bebe get's home to post my pic 'cause I don't know how to do it  :oops: . (And they had me running an engineering dept. with Ford Motor Co....hmmmm, maybe that's why the Fairmont never was such a big hit) But I think I know what I'll post as the pic.

As a mechanic for a lot of years, boy would I be interested in what goes on in the minds of some of your ex-department....  Got any good stories about designs that didn't make the cut? Care to answer a few "What the F were they thinking" questions?  That would be an interesting off-topic topic!  :cheers:   :thumb:

Post by: cernunos on February 22, 2005, 11:40:31 PM
Ok, I sent an E-Mail to Kerry (Sorry Kerry but you started the darn thing) with my puzzle pic. Maybe somebody can show me how to post the things myself? Ah yeh Commuterguy there's all kinds of weird crap people come up with and a lot that don't work. I remember the Tempo always being such a slug with the little 2.3 4 cyl engine and I wondered why powertrain and chassis development never put some spunk into it. I was talking about this with one of the PT engineers and he said something like "hey we could put the SHO motor in it ha ha", like it was some kind of joke. About six months go by and he comes to me wanting me to work up some durability testing for some new throttle and speed-control assemblies. I asked him what they were for and he just grinned and told me they were going to try and shoe-horn the 3.0 six into the temp. I thought, WOW, a Tempo with the 3.0 Yamaha SHO motor! But it turned out it was just the old iron-head push-rod six like used in the Ranger and Base-Six Taurus. Still, those things ran pretty good and if you can ever find a Tempo GLS with the 3.0 you'd be surprised how well they run. Give a Z-24 fits for sure. But they just made a handful of them...they didn't sell very well and the bottom line is money. BTW, would you believe if I told you the actual NET profit/vehicle for Ford in 1990 was around 30 dollars US? Funny that a lot of people think car makers make thousands of dollars per vehicle...the dealer is the one who makes high profits on each vehicle. But when you consider that Ford makes vehicles by the hundreds of thousands it comes out pretty good. Love the bike and the forum.

to post a pic, you need to have an online hosting account (I use village photos) once you upload the photo to your account, you go there and click on the photo. scroll down to underneath, and you should see a link for public viewing or direct viewing choose the direct viewing (should start with img or image) copy that link and paste it in your post. the proper format to post directly is       (//paste%20the%20link%20here)

Kerry is much better at explaining that, but that's the basics.

If you want, send it to me and I'll put it up.

Yeah, I knew about the low profit on autos. But 'net profit' is kinda skewed anyway. by the time you get to 'net' they've run out of creative ways to chop down 'gross' with trumped up expenses so they pay less in taxes.... most companies do this, mine included.

I remember the 3.0 tempo, also remember the AWD tempo with that teeny little diff in the back... it was so cute! :lol: ... also remember wondering why in the heck they tilted that master cylinder at an angle so sharp. you had to jack the back of the car up 3 feet to bleed it if you ever got air in the mastercylinder (either that or pull it off and re-bench bleed it, install the lines with it level, and let it gravity bleed before re-bolting it to the booster...
Title: Mystery Photos!
Post by: cummuterguy on February 23, 2005, 12:07:09 AM
oooh....  speaking of tempo's   what was the whole reasoning behind the foam rubber coated wheels?  it was always funny to see one come in after a caliper had locked up and melted the face off of the wheel :lol:

sorry, just thought of that...

By the way, Kerry, I sorta accidently maybe slightly thread-jacked here... my bad...  I like your  photo contest entry, I had frost on MY seat two weeks ago (yup, all the way down here in Fla....)

1) UPLOAD: Upload picture to image hosting site such as www.photobucket.com.  make sure the site allows hotlinking before u sign up with them.  

2) HOTLINK: if u are using photobucket its real simple.  there will be 3 lines under each picture in ur photobucket account.  chose the line with the [ IMG] and [ /IMG] tags.  copy it.  paste it into your post!  thats all there is to it!

I won't even bid on E-Bay for cryin' out loud. Just give me a break here and I will send the pic to the Grand Kerry Cowbah this once and I'll never ever ever guess what the pic or the puzzle or the moral is again if it means I have to go to a "host" (mmmm it just sounds so parasitic, although I know it's supposed to be more symbiotic).

I was stationed in Cuba with a friend who was stung in the armpit by a scorpion. When he whacked at it the thing fell down into his shirt and by the time he got it out he was stung again on the index finger. His whole arm swelled up like a balloon and we thought he was a goner. They transferred him to a base hospital and he recovered but said that the arm still felt tingly all the time. Scorpions are some evil little creatures. Yeh, don't like messin' with those water meter covers either. So, Kerry, where's yer pic? (you started this you know). Love that little GS and this forum.

Wowee this thread went 6 pages in 1 day and I didn't even see it ... Anyway ... In India We had a friend whose house was infested with them ... have you tried to kill one ... It is so damn tough ... it feels like a piece of leather you are hitting ... anyway we had to have them trapped with an indian style broom and clobber it with the base of a cricket bat ... you'd still end up in many cases with one that needed a few blows to die ... And people build immunity to the stings ... My friend and his family were all immune ... hurt like hell I presume ...
Cool.

why do scorpions live in watermeters??
Title: Mystery Photos!
Post by: cernunos on February 24, 2005, 11:17:28 AM
Hell yes they're hard to kill...like a giant armor plated bug with a .22 for a tail. I was always afraid to sleep lying down so I got to where I would sleep in a squatting position...didn't help 'cuz I would wake up on my side or back and start swattin' at myself in case any of the buggers had crawled on me in the nite. I did almost sit on one and a friend noticed it...that sure would have been a pain in the ass :lol: . When I turned around and looked at the bugger it had its claws stretched out like a fighter and I could just hear it thinkin'..."bring it on down here jar-head, I got sumpin' fer yer ass". Love the scooter and the forum. Bring on da pic Mat!!

Concerning this scorpion sidebar story: I've been stung a few times. Scorpions can control the amount of venom they inject, presumably to allow for the need of multiple strikes or mutliple threats. I've been stung and had it feel no worse than a thorn prick. The big baddy gave me his best shot since when I lifted the meter cover I accidently grabbed him underneath it. They like dark, damp areas, but will also come into nice dry homes in darkened rooms. I've killed three this week. One dropped on me from above, the little terrorist paid with his life. I find a quick stomp with a shoe suffices to kill them. But, very few chemicals will do. They can swim in ant & roach spray, but spray carburetor cleaner works REALLY well. :lol: Arizona is scorpion country, unfortunately.

My friend's cousins live in the bottom of the Grand Canyon...they work for the Parks Service...anyway they hold the scorpions down with a bent serving spoon and slice off the stinger with another serving spoon...without their stingers you can play with them safely.  Then they would take the stingers and put them on a necklace...with the pointy part of the stinger snipped off, of course.

Although I'm not fond of the scutters I also don't see torturin' the poor things by pullin' off their tails. They're just lookin' for a meal like anything else. Hey, if you wanna play with 'em, why not just play a game of tag and see if you can tag them before they tag you? And I guess they would make a cool pet...we had a Black Widow as a pet for a while until the power went off during the winter and she froze to death. It was so sad watching Bebe cry over that spider. Oh well, love the bike and this forum.

You know what? I'll give ya hints. You'll find it here on Earth, so no nebulas or anything like that. I'll give ya scale also. That image covers about an inch of space.

Here's a re-post of the image so you don't need to go back a page just to see it.

OK You put some thick liquid creamer in a cup of coffee and it billows up like that ... of course you have to be one incredible photographer to get it ... and I think you are likely to be Kerry ... that 1 inch was my hint ... making the thing fairly sizeable ...
Cool.

:lol: Actually, it's my photo and it's nothing special as you soon will see whenever it's guessed. So another hint? Hmm. Has nothing to do with motorcycles. In fact, it's organic.
Title: Mystery Photos!
Post by: roguegeek on February 25, 2005, 11:57:41 PM
The more I think about it, the more I think no one will get it without more hints or dealing with it directly. In fact, I think a good group of people might not know what it is even if they saw the original image.

Ok. Definitely a living thing. Not human nor comes from a human. One could consider it a pet of sorts and is more than likely grouped with other organisms (some like it, some not) in the same environment. I think I gave away too much with this hint.

Post by: cernunos on February 28, 2005, 04:31:18 PM
Not for sure but it appears to be a 1924-26 TT enclosed cab truck with optional steel doors. Earlier models used a canvas top and even earlier had an open front. Later models started using steel wheels and a little bit more aero package :lol: . At any rate it would be a nice piece of history to restore. And Frost; yes I really do love my Baby G and this forum too.

The black area is paint, but you can get different colors/finishes.

It is smaller than a cell phone

It has been around for decades

No electronics

Not able to cut anything but can cause an injury

Not a gun

I will post the full size tonight when I get off work just after 11:00

I know what it is!

It's gotta be the spark wheel on a Zippo lighter.

(Had to put it in photoshop and lighten it up a little)

Errr...  Maybe not a Zippo - what appears to be the case hinge is on the wrong side, but some kind of lighter spark wheel.

Heh.  In retrospect that was kind of underhanded.  I rotated the original image 90 degrees 'cause I thought it would be too easy otherwise.  Silly me!

I've put up another piece of the Mystery Pic to try to provide a little context.

This should be a bit less unfair.

I've been riding with a couple guys for last few weekends,  even though I don't totally blend in.  There's an '04 CBR1000RR, '05 R1, '04 R1, and two other guys that ride newer gixxers, but I don't remember whether they're 600's or 750's.  

Yeah its way fun, I get to watch them do their wheelies and stoppies and chill out in the back of the pack.

One of my favorite sea critters, the mantis shrimp

(http://members.cox.net/ridemygs500/mantis.jpg)

The eyes of these Crustaceans have eight classes of visual pigments for detection of color, as well as additional classes of visual pigments for sensing the polarization and distribution of light. In addition, they have the ability of depth perception with a single eye.
Humans have a measly 3 classes of visual pigments for color detection (fewer in color blind folks)

Close enough

(http://www.uwm.edu/~mpmaes/Photos/st2000.JPG)

Its whats used to handle 35mm film for movies.

This is a particularly funky one though. Its and endless loop system, so the start of the film is spliced to end, creating a 10 thousand foot loop of 35mm film(about a 2 hour movie). So if you dont stop it the movie would just keep looping.

Bingo, its known as Hiawatha's belt. The first block (from right to left) representing the Mohawks who live in the east, next the Oneidas, the Onondagas, who are centrally located and also hold the Grand Council (the seat capital) are represented by a tree symbol, the Cayuga Nation who are located near Rochester N.Y. and finally the Seneca Nation who live furthest west. These Nations are all connected by a white path of peace. The white beads that extend outward is also an invatation to other nations who wish to join and live by this Law of Peace. The purple represents the Great Law of Peace, Kariwiio and all the laws and customs the Creator has given the Haudenosaunee to live together in peace.

Nope.  Not jaws of any kind.  It isn't rusty either.  Technically, the ridges aren't even called teeth.  I'm probably going to give this away now...

[clue=1]It's just dirty from sitting in a drawer with lots of others just like it.  They make special cabinets to hold these things.[/clue]

[clue=2]Thy make special removers for these things in case you break one off.[/clue]

[clue=3]Most shops that use these will have a good sized stock of them.  The next size up or down is just as useless as not having any.  (relates to #1) [/clue]

Well, it might be tangentially related to beer, in that drinking too much beer might make you accidentally involved with one of these.  But most places that work with these have policies dealing with that.

It is a ring?  Like a ring that would be on your finger.  But how would getting drunk involve a ring on accident?  Or any sort of stone?  Unless that is a kidney stone that has been passed and then sent to the lab.  And now the kidney stone is being looked at through a mircoscope.  But when would a kidney stone ever be involved in sex?  Romancing the Stone?  Nope.  Too freaky even for RG.

I love this bike. It's gorgeous, powerful, yet subtle. It isn't seen in wide numbers, but it's got a huge helping of style. I'm quite partial to the black and red, but the blues are always nice... well, the '06 is ugly because the blue is too bright and a matte color, but whatever.

I assumed it was the old version because I didn't see any color in it. I forgot that the center part was still the regular color. I don't get to look at money much anymore. The downside of being a poor college student, I guess.

From www.rattanshack.com:
Wicker refers to the process used to make the furniture, not the fibers used. Wicker furniture, therefore may be aged of willow bury, rattan or any pliable material. Wicker furnishings are made by weaving coarse fibers loosely together around a frame; a process dating back to early Egypt.
