From peteralway, stuff you don’t have that I have, a place you haven’t been that I’ve been:



Name a CD you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:

Satan Claus from Something Fierce

Name a book you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:

Void Where Prohibited: Rest Breaks and the Right to Urinate on Company Time, by Marc Linder And Ingrid Nygaard.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:

Powaqqatsi: Life In Transformation

Name a place that you have visited that you think no-one else on your friendslist has:

The Clinton Nuclear Power Station in Clinton, Illinois.

Name a piece of technology or any sort of tool you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist has:

My friends make this tough. What could I possibly have that none of them have? At least by American standards one of the hardest-to-find tools I own is a conventional construction-worker-style retractable steel tape measure with the tape marked in both inches and centimeters.

National Association of Rocketry contest rules call for Spot Landing distances to be measured in meters, and Super-Rock lengths to be measured in centimeters.

The nice thing about living in southeastern Michigan is that Canada is nearby. So the last time I went to Point Pelee with my ex, we stopped at Canadian Tire so that I could get myeself a 50-meter a dual-unit tape measure.

I confess that I had to use a very broad definition of technology for my answer to this question.

I had a hard time when I first encountered the board game "Power Grid", because the black wood counters used for oil in that game look EXACTLY like the wood counters we received on our tour of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station that were supposed to represent nuclear rod pellets. ;)

And yes, there is nuclear power in the Power Grid game. It's counters are small and red.

OK, let me be more specific. I've been inside the containment building while the reactor was operating at full power. Have you been there? You people make this difficult....
