RSS Burnout

Hey folks, just wanted to let you know I'm still working out the kinks and still trying to keep up with all the rss feeds coming out. I'll do the best I can, fortunately I have a lot of time on my hands. If there are any rss feeds you feel I should have featured on this blogs, I'm all ears. Peace and hang tight for a little bit while I work this stuff out

Westfalia 2.0

This is a really sick idea that I found in the works recently. I am totally stoked on this.
the problems:
1. Volkswagens are notorious for breaking down

2. This vehicle fully loaded, will not make it up Teton Pass in the middle of winter.

3. Too many tables and crap that is unnecessary. I would rather pack my cold creek camp chair. I would take out the tables, make sure the batteries in the car were lithium ion.


4. I would probably have to get quite a few lithium Ion batteries to keep any kind of charge that the solar panels received during charging hours. The problem is that the batteries are really expensive.

5. I would fit every appliance in there with energy-efficient ones i-e; electric water heaters that can boil water in less than three minutes, a refrigerator for the beer, cationic space heater for those -40 F nights.


6. I would probably want to mount a Thule box on this monster. Which would make the solar panel incorporated into it, a pain in the ass to deal with. You could theoretically cover the Thule box with solar panels but this would take a lot of time and energy.

7. On top of all of this you would have to find a bio diesel gas station. or get a kit like the one you see here and work out a deal with your local McDonald's or restaurant.

Other than that I don't see too many other problems. When all is said and done, it's probably easier to retrofit your old Volkswagen than buy a new car and then fix the problems. But still inspirational that other people are considering designs like this!!

Whenever you have doubts about a higher power watching over us. Be reassured, he or she is busy frying ants under a magnifying lens.

Imminent signs of the end of the world

Teton Snow Info

Here is a really useful website that I have recently discovered. I thought is was pretty amazing, check it out

www.tetonsnowinfo.com

The Mission Statement

First off, let me tell you what I won't do:

1. I will do the best I can to NOT make the articles and info redundant. I know this is somewhat of a challenge, especially with how many websites are out there.

2. I will NOT turn this thing, whatever it may be, into a form of self-worship to justify my existence on this little blue planet.

I don't really care about my ultimate impact on society. All I care about, is that in the wake of economic collapse and meltdown, OUR traditions of snow worship and rock humbling experiences, culture, lingo, lifestyle, etc. get preserved. So future generations can experience the same things that we choose to dedicate our lives to. I merely wish to facilitate this and create a place for you, the hi-tech ski bum nerds, to express your opinions, links, ideas, photos, videos, thoughts and cynicism's. A place to recognize how ass backwards society really is. A place to bitch about sociopathic CEO's and continue to laugh at them. Because as you are all well aware, we were broke anyways before everything went to hell.

Fuck Madoff, and all his other self-righteous cronies. Let'em Burn, Amen.
Thank you & Goodnight, -Mclovin

UP and running

Hello everyone, this is a blog designed for anyone who has ever been called a dirtbag, hippy or ski bum. For anyone who has been told to get a 'real job', to get a degree or that they have to contribute to society. For all those people who replied to such comments with a resounded "Go f@#k yourself, I'm going to do what makes me happy and there isn't a d&$n thing you can do about it!!"
