I don't care if reality is real or merely a totally convincing copy, after this past week and the overnight of spinning plates of eggs on poles[1] that finished it, I needed some foooood. Hearty stuff. Stuff that's not all that good fer ya.
This stuff: ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtuwTuVPaxwPKkhT1DIczllg99JWAa2HOtD0kyudo83RrgjMgLTwSTI08vH7ee8PjlrR_v9yKX2D_uEciMJ-pdVpCjXe2mVWEe_kduUfHSJtijMVoqA3rbBYAQa0VP6ZMaBxSgdo8Da20/s320/DSCI0054-1.JPG)
What we have here is sausage, diced Yukon Gold taters[2], sliced "Baby Bella" 'shrooms and scrambled eggs, with diced green onions, radishes and red bell peppers added once the burner is off. It needs just a touch more and we end up with this: Of course, if you're going to eat that well, it calls for dessert. I had a Lindor "Ultimate Dark"
All this while watching "Collateral," a gem of a film I'd rank with "Gattaca" and "Blade Runner." Some directors take over your eyes -- Micheal Mann is one of 'em.

1. At one point I had two stardrive transmitters running on the same channel using different transmission modes and the signal from one that currently produces income, er, I mean interstellar drive was havin' to boil a ginourmously big vat of heat-conducting oil before it could head up the tower. A vat, mind you, nearly sealed and which we had learned a couple of days before was not, in fact, quite large enough for the heat load it needed to bear. Had fans blowin' on it an' lighted joss sticks to Hephaestus an' kept walkin' by an' layin' hands on it, or nearly, anyway, since it was skin-searing hot. But hey, no pressure. Literally, which is a good thing: I look bad covered in boiling oil.
2. Good but an experiment and I think Idaho bakers fry up better; I'll have to try other varieties, too. Yukon Golds are totally superior mashed.

How many Watts are putting into the antenna for HD?
Into the antenna? For now, it will be a bit under 2200 W, for 15.1 kW ERP; but things are supposedly not yet done gettng sorted out and it could change. In terms of average power, it is a little more than 10% of the present analog power level for the same coverage area.
The UHF DTV we run now, on the other hand, runs more average power out than the analog VHF peak power. And that's the story of UHF: it takes more oomph to get where you're going. A lot more.
YUM!
I'm not going to have a delicious meal like that until we hit Dalandzadgad!
Try the New Potatoes with the reddish purple skin and cook them with the skin on. They ought to hold together very well cooked.
word verification: "vovvohhh" wtf??? LOL
Cool (watch out for the boiling oil)! But what does one of them that stardrive transmitters look like? Send me a photo, I could not find one on the internet. I don't think I'm allowed to know what they look like.
That's FOOD!
My little Philips HDTV antenna on the bamboo pole in the living-room keeps dropping Ch.7's signal and we have to go and reload the box - it figures it's a UHF matter...
The screecher-kid is out in the back yard again making weird loud noises...I wonder if its ever gonna learn to talk?
