Teresa sent me this picture of Jarhead's Bunker while she and LarryJ
were snooping around looking for some Beer!

LarryJ throwing a fit over the lousy food in Jarhead's Bunker ::)
Warph,
If Larry doesn't like MRE's and pickled okra---and persimmon wine, then the ol chap better find himself another bunker and quit the whining.
Has anyone heard a peep out of ol Teresa since she found my stash of cash ? Maybe I should go count it. I would hate to think I financed her a trip to Hawaii.
MRE? What's a MRE? I thought they were called C-rats. Loved the C-rats. I don't like anything pickled, okra or otherwise...well, when the missus gets a little pickled, that's okay. Never tried persimmon wine............Chateau La Salle when I drive down to the beach. Totally Wines in Tustin is the only place that I can find it.
Now then........as far as the money........Teresa and I are both honest God-fearing folk. We would never steal......well, the money. We would've stole the beer if ol' stingy had left some. Jar, ol' buddy, you need to restock in case of attack. Can't drink greenbacks. There might be a little bit missing though. It got a little chilly down there (the heater wasn't working) so we had to build a fire to keep warm. Oh, and sorry about the damage. When Teresa couldn't find any beer, she got mad and let off a few rounds. Send her the bill.
Gotta go pack now for the trip to Ha..............wait.......you didn't hear anything from me about any trips.
Larryj
You guys are too funny.
Oh yeah, and Warph............I wasn't crying over any stinkin' health foods. That is the video that Teresa shot when we couldn't find any beer in the bunker. I do apologize for the tantrum. I only do that when I am thirsty. In the meantime, I got an e-mail from Slappy. He ain't too happy with you lately. You haven't been buying your share at the nineteenth hole. He is beginning to think you are a flake.
Larryj
Larry, you did what ? Burned money to keep warm ? If you would have looked on a shelf ,there is a little propane cook stove that would heat my bunker.
If you and Teresa needed something to drink there is whole case of "Bug Juice". Tornado siren goes off and kiddies pile into the bunker then get scared, a bottle of Bug Juice makes everything OK.
Oh yea, the bunker also has 20-30 quarts of tomato juice so you bring the beer and we will all sit down there and partake of a few red beers.
RED BEER????????? MY G-D...
Where's the SCHNAPPES!?!
Red Beer??.... tell that to Hitler... who's quite pissed, btw...
cause he wants his money back, Jarhead! Hitler is so upset
about Teresa and Larry breaking into Jarheads bunker
and stealing his money on his birthday that he trys to call his
mommy...
Hmmmmm.. okay, that didn't work too well....
What to do...?
What to do...?
Upset he couldn't get his mommy, he calls Obuma...
After he's kissed off by Obuma, he decides to
have Jusin Bieber killed,
Hitlers commits suicide upon hearing teresa and
Larry took off to Hawaii together with Jarheads
money...
After Hitler's demise, Teresa shows up, dressed
in a Nazi Uniform with machine gun in hand,
and takes care of the rest of Hitlers crowd.

Did you know that there is at least one Irish pub in Los Angeles that serves green beer on St. Patrick's Day? And what is with this BYOB stuff? I the visitor, you the visitee......and don't invite Warph. According to Slappy, he is a cheapskate not buying his share.
The only thing I mix with tomato juice is vodka, a pinch of pepper and when I feel the need to eat healthy, a celery stalk, but that doesn't happen very often.
Besides, Slappy and Warph will be celebrating the anniversary of Arizona's statehood today, along with millions of Mexicans and American Indians who really don't give a d... about Arizona's statehood, but use any occasion to party.

Larry,
Warph ? Warph who ?
That is a question that's been on the minds of most Americans from the very beginning of time. 'Who is Warph?' You might as well say, 'Who is John Galt?' There are basically four 'sets' of Americans with entirely different trains of thought on who he always was and who he is now. One group knew who he was and is from the 'git go'; a second group did not exactly know who he was but were sucked into supporting him through his eloquent golf shots and the promises he made for a better game tomorrow, but are now finally beginning to wake up and see the light; a third group knows who he is now but refuses to change their minds due to deeply entrenched, personal ideological views on him being a skinflint, and a seemingly extreme inability to admit they made a mistake and try to correct it; and a fourth group that doesn't even care who he was or is as long as he delivers them their 'golf gimmies' on the next hole.
Into which group do you fall? ...Slappy
P.S. Warph told me he didn't care about being invited 'cause Larry and Teresa drink all the beer and he wasn't about to drink any of that "bug juice" ... probably made with ol' moldy chum and fish heads. and yeah, Warph owes me 73 beers... real cheapskate!
Fifth group..............those who are vaguely aware of who he is, but appreciates his input to this forum with his wonderful sense of humor................Wait..........................sorry, I was gagging. ;D
Janet, you are right about all this nonsense. I did read this string to R.A.M.B.O and Sir Charles. R.A.M.B.O. is ROTFLHAO and Sir Charles is still waiting for the punch line............he is a little slow. R.A.M.B.O is a little amazed at the ugly conditions of Jarhead's bunker. He is a little tired because he just finished installing the central air system in his/our bunker. Sir Charles was little help as it was his first attempt at working the crane and missed the hole the first few times. They also managed to finish the walk-in fridge and have stocked it with gluten-free beer. They also put the finishing touches on the wine cellar and stocked with all kinds of wine. The local electronics store will be delivering the big screen TV's today and after R.A.M.B.O has his nap will install all five of them. The wall-to-wall carpet layers will be here tomorrow. And, on Friday, all the satellite and Wi-Fi connections will be done. The one big achievement I am looking forward to, is the installation of the elevators. I get tired going up and down the stairs. I have ordered and expect it to arrive soon, a sign for the entrance that says............
I SPEAK ENGLISH FLUENTLY.
Larryj
From where will you be getting the electricity, or will this be a Robinson Crusoe/Rube Goldberg set up?
I'm sorry, Diane, I forgot to mention one of the first things R.A.M.B.O. did was install 10 underground generators each in it's own separate bomb-proof vault and each separately wired. In case of a failure, the others will kick in. He also ran a secret underground conduit to the local police station which would have electricity in case of emergencies. He also has installed solar panels for a third backup. Installing the 1000 gallon propane tank was a problem due to lack of space, but he was able to bury it in the neighbor's back yard without his knowledge. Of course, there is a line connected to the natural gas which we will use unless it fails. 10 cords of firewood are part of the camo which hides the entrance, but will be a last resort. A 10,000 gallon water tank is buried in another neighbor's yard, again without his knowledge. He has also dug four wells for another source of water. It features indoor pump handles all throughout the bunker. All the water sources are connected to a hot water pump, providing instant hot water for showers, etc. This cuts down on the amount of water needed. One of the projects on tap (pun intended) is to run a pipe over to Warph's nineteenth hole and hook up with the beer tap, but until they start selling gluten-free beer, this is only something to have in place until they do.
Now.............I think I got everything covered.
If anyone has any more questions, feel free to ask. R.A.M.B.O's answering service is on 24/7.

I want to go to Jarhead's Bunker. :( :( :( :'( :'( :'(

WHAT.... and drink that Bug Juice !???! Janet, before you do, let me give the tel. no. of
morticians Bennie & Hymie Wedgebaum "Desert Paradise Of The Valley"... won't be any
charge for embalming fee after you drink the bug juice, I'm sure. And if you need a
good law firm for Wills, I recommend Labovitz, Solomon and Rakuover.
Janet,
I no longer have a bunker. After reading about Larry's high end bunker I wired mine with C-4 and blew that puppy. I have been called a prepper but that danged ol Larry is a prepper with class !!!
Darn, Jarhead, I was going to offer to send some Muscadine wine to store in your bunker.
Warph, I wasn't going to drink the bug juice. I just wanted to go. Now I can't. :'( :'( :'( :'(
Dang it, Jarhead, not only did you blow the bunker, but now that will probably end this exhilarating thread, just when I was going to mention about the pooltables and the antique jukebox. And I was going to surprise you when I told you that when someone rings the doorbell, it plays the Marine Corps. Hymn. I do hope you removed that cash before you set off the C-4.
Larryj
He didn't. It is drifting down all over Elk County.
UHHHH.........Wilma.............that's not money that's drifting down.............
Larryj ::)
Larry... Thanks to pkarck, my changes to improve the C library for Microchip's MRF24J40 802.15.4 modules has been ported to the Arduino library. I'd written an Arduino library some time ago, but hadn't been maintaining it as I don't really deal with Arduino much these days. However, it's gotten some love :) It's now easier to use, and has support for the power amplifier on the MRF24J40MB modules, if you're using those. It also makes some quirks I was dealing with in a mixed xbee/mrf24j40 module environment optional. In general, this collects up some of the various reported issues over the last year or so, and I didn't have to do anything to speak of at all.
Basically what I did was connect an Arduino to a 12-bit DAC chip (TLV5618) using the SPI 3 wire interface. It sends numbers on a timer to interrupt the DAC to specify where the beams are, 0, 455, 900, etc... all the way up to 4095 for 10 beams. It holds each position for about 500uS (half a millisecond) and switches laser blanking on (or is that "off") for this time. When it reaches the end it brings the mirror back to the start position of the Satellite. The output of the DAC chip is 0-5V... this is then converted to -5v / +5v using a TL082 Opamp chip from Radio Shack. Finally it's passed through a Balanced Line Driver chip to give the full (-/+) 10v ptp) differential signal required by the mirror (laser galvanometer) amplifier.
Anyway, to make a long story short, two hours later I was into the memory banks of Navigational Satellite Otto#32930 of the Space Surveillance Network (SSN), which is a division of The United States Strategic Command. While viewing all recorded info from the southeasten part of Kansas the month of January through Feb. 16th, I didn't see an explosion of any sort whether it be C4, RDX rag bomb type or Dynamite explosions that took place during that time. I did get a fuzzy picture of someone or something around quad#46vDre7 area (Elk Co) running to and fro' in what looked like a diaper with an Marine Corps insignia on its butt-end at 03;42am (GMT-6) waving what looked like sparklers in each hand but no explosion.
So it is my opinion that Jarhead DID NOT blow up his Bunker. This should be good news for Wilma and Ms.Bear and her muscadine wine but not so much for R.A.M.B.O. and all his hard work on your bunker. And as to the money, I bet he still has it. He still owes me $10 bucks for those fly decals... you to, come to think of it.
What I think Wilma saw was green frog rain. Sometimes it's a few dozen frogs... or a couple hundred or even thousands. And usually, it's not just frogs because waterspouts can carry all sorts of items. It was either that or she got into Ms. Bears muscadine wine.
So whaddya think, Larry?? Jarhead still has his bunker intact?????
Warph,
You Fly-Boy's are too nosey with all your high tech gadgets. No I did not blow my bunker up. I just said that so Teresa wouldn't be coming back to replenish her possible bag with more of my "Frog Skins'---that would be Green Backs to you Az people.
Thank MsBear for the offer of the Muscatine wine but I got quite a bit of it---but---I noticed several bottles of it had "chunks" floating around in it. Not sure what's up with that but if a person don't mind chewing their wine I think it will still make you tipsy. Maybe it will be a good year for elderberries and I will replace it .
Larry, this homemade wine is around 19% so it might be a tad stout for R.A.M.B.O. but I think I have a 6 pack of Billy Beer he can drink
The dandelions are growing really well this year, probably have enough for a small batch of wine.
My bag needs a bit more "frog smell"..
Be by later this week.. and this time when you see me comin'... don't be hidin' in the back under those old bushes.. I seen ya peekin' out. This next time I'm bringing my old trusted Sally Slingshot.. That will bring you out of those bushes.... begging me to take your damned old frog skins..
Yeah, Warph, what you said.................
I got a little high tech also. I called the guy next door to the bunker on my telephone and he said it was still there.
$10? I'll leave in my will.
Teresa, you need to go over and straighten ol' Jarhead out. He is just a little too sassy lately. Nothing worse than over-the-hill sassy ma.......Marine.
I gotta go now. R.A.M.B.O. is holding auditions for the sushi chef.
Sir Charles won't be any help. He was charging around in the yard earlier and ran headfirst into a big flower pot. He was a little confused for a few minutes..............wasn't real sure which way was up, but he is okay now. The hard hat probably saved him. But he does have a headache. Dummy.
Larryj
Oh yeah, Jarhead, only 19%? That's kinda tame. I have reverse osmosis water stronger than that. Besides, R.A.M.B.O. has joined AA and doing the twelve step program.
