          @Filthy:

          Sometimes I work in a mill/coke factory and we drill solid masses of C18Fe7N18/ prussian blue out of this heat exchanger at their water treatment plant. The shade of indigo in these jeans reminds me of this stuff.

          I really like the cobalt color of these jeans and how the black kind of cools down the indigo shade of the denim even further. They seem to have a cooler color temperature than regular 25 XHS does, with a more neon blue.

          When this stuff further oxidizes it turns completely black. I wish I had a picture to show you but I don't. They tell us it is an oxidized form of cyanide. I take it that it is not lethal because I would be dead.


          I guess they used to paint with the stuff to. According to Google this painting is famous for an extensive use of prussian blue as a pigment. It's strange that this stuff can be used as a pigment because it doesn't stain your skin. At least the stuff I am talking about is.

          The artist is Hokusai. I found it trying to find an image of the stuff I am talking about. I didn't see a good representation of the color I am trying to describe other than the graduations in this picture.

          I'm back at my least favorite place today… 😭🔫

          It's got a chalkier look this time. Hopefully that means less cyanide.

          I looked like Mary Poppins earlier until I wiped my face off. 😂

            Drove down to LA yesterday for the weekend with my wife – first trip outta the Bay Area since this bs started. Feels good to be on the move. Feels like the world is opening up a bit. Feeling good. I had her take some cute photos of bevs I drank today. Should I be a hand model?  😉

            Idk if anyone here's had it, but that bev (Spuma) in the first photo is WILD. I used to drink it in between serving ppl when I worked at a restaurant in the Ferry Building up in San Francisco. Just can't be found anywhere and had been about eight years since I'd had any. If you can order it/find it? BUY SOME.

                You guys musta been thirsty!  😛

                & the fact that you're in LA could only mean your chances of crossing paths with a hand modeling scout is up.

                              I figure life is/can be oppressive af and so I wanna try and be upbeat as much as I can.

                                        I get my second dose on Wednesday! Very excited. My arm was pretty sore for about a day after the first. No other effects. Fingers crossed.

                                          Everyone is working to get the wood fired boiler back on line. maybe @Filthy  will know what to do?

                                          Water leak in one of the tubes.

                                          Harvey did most of the work. He got it back on line. Making steam again with wood.

                                            Yeah I was gonna suggest to pressure test it and plug or weld over the tube that leaks. Or sometimes if they can pull a vacuum on the steam side you can cover the tubesheet with shaving cream and plastic to find the leak.

                                            Or they make this florescein dye you can put on the steam side and flood the hotwell with water and use a blacklight to find the leaks.

                                            https://www.amazon.com/Green-Water-Tracing-Detection-Flourescent/dp/B00LEM6UOI

                                            You can pull the tube out with a thing called a production spear and a slide hammer, or a hydraulic air return cylinder then weld a new tube in place but you have to have some specialize tube expansion equipment to make a good seal on the tubesheet first.
