Yesterday the Kadizzles took the tire
to get it fixed. Finding a place that will repair a flat in this
modern age is another problem. Prior to our most recent flat tire,
we had to drive from Pick City North Dakota to Billings Montana
before we could get a flat repaired. Luckily after one false start
we found a place in Pumpkin Center, AZ that could fix our tire.
The first place we stopped two people
were waiting for the place to open. Both the woman and the man fit
the typical small town desert MO. Both were fried by the sun, and
both were deep in the hand gun culture. In fact that was part of why
they were there. Al the 75 year old inventor was going to install
his invention in the little desert woman's truck. The invention was
very clever. It held you gun securely until you swiped your
fingerprint across the back of the gun holder. Instantly your loaded
gun was available to shoot the dastardly bastard that needed to be
dead. Al has a video that shows him drawing the gun from it's holder
near his back door in under three seconds. The great thing is the
gun is safe from children, but loaded and ready to go. Kadizzle is
not an advocate of hand guns. In fact hand guns should be
registered, licensed and controlled, but until the NRA is defeated at
least we can have some better safety devices.
If one went by appearance one would
never have guessed how smart and what a good inventor the old guy
was. Kadizzle enjoyed talking with him and the discussion lead to
another invention he is working on. Al is working on a heat engine
that will work similar to a steam engine, but will use freon. If his
idea is practical it seems someone would have perfected it. For
about an hour we discussed using his idea to capture the waste heat
from power plants. After seeing Al's gun invention he just may be
able to perfect his freon engine. If he does he will make more than
Bill Gates.
