Greetings me Droogs N Droogettes!
Couldn’t let January go by without a great big dose of “What the fuck was that!?!” i.e. something stomach related. I’m just now feeling a wee bit better… still pretty weak TBH. Food poisoning I reckon as Sapper and Gretchen have been fine, but it’s still weird AF as we all ate pretty much the same exact thing, with the exception of the BritRat Muesli I had two days ago for breakfast… and even then I only managed to choke down two spoonfuls before I quit as it was pretty fucking gross.
So, two days of non-stop toilet fun and games.
To top it off with us getting word that yes, Gretchen has Teh Boobie Cancer dammit.
I’m growing weary of these ‘issues’ that keep cropping up. And no, t’ain’t me causing it. Unless I peed on some unmarked Babylonian King or Queens Tomb when I was in Iraq (entirely possible) there by activating some ancient curse… It’s been one thing after another, after another, and so on and so on.
“O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.”
Matthew 26:39
I mean personally, I’d reeeeally like a ‘bye’ on this particular shitshow that’s now inbound. Ins’Allah, this too will pass, but only in The Lords time I suppose.
The biggest piss me off tho is why did it have to be titty cancer? I mean hers are works of Art man… “Breastages by Botticelli” I swear… Chris Muir got ’em so right I had to ask Gretchen if she’d ever met/dated him when he did the Naughty Gretchen Nurse cartoon for Mike Hendrix’s fundraiser:
I think the majority of y’all saw her in a bikini shot I put up on occasion… for a 52 year old chick, she’s still racked, stacked and packed.
HOPEFULLY we caught this shit early enough that they don’t get damaged…. that’d be a literal crime. For grins and giggles we’re going to try some alternative natural methods… dietary and whatnot… the stuff -I- did to help beat the Lung Cancer that fucked me up back a ways ago.
We really appreciate all the suggestions and whatnot, ideas, plans, diets, my DMs have been getting blown up. I’m going to do a fundraiser maybe as much as I hate the idea… I’m not going to comment on the stuff we do as I don’t want flak from either the (non)insurance company nor the Croakers. We’re going to be ‘good lil obedient patients’ doncha know? </sarc>
They play word games, so I too can play word games.
So, that in a nutshell/case is what’s been happening around here. Part of the stomach issues too I believe is a psychosomatic reaction to the news… they told us and as soon as they did, I had to grab the garbage can and ralph right there n then…
Now, other late Empire Stoopid:
Seems that we hit 84 sites in Syria and Iraq?
What?
I swear to God… 3 Engineer Support troops get cashed in, along with 30+ wounded, and not only does it take like what? A week, week and a half? to start blowing up shit, but when we do start blowing up shit, we pick on the smallest, least likely-to-have-done it groups and areas???
It’s like the ‘MuricanBully gets punched a few times by the local IranianBully (lets face it, Iran IS the Big Dawg in that A.O. now) so in turn, for vengeance, The ‘MuricanBully instead goes after IranBullys retarded little brother, Iraq and his autistic sister Syria, both of whom already had the shit beat out of them by the ‘MuricanBully…
Is it me, or has GloboHomo GAE gone completely and utterly insane? I mean those of us here have known it for a while… but it appears to be becoming moar and moar pronounced as of late. My hunch is that “Team Carcass” is literally shitting in their collective drawers now, much like their puppet. The Pretender to the Glorious and Harmonious P&PBUH (Plus 10%) Orifice of The (p)Resident, The Dementor-in-Chief, Emperor Poopypants the First, Chief Executive of the Kidsmeller Pursuivant, Good Ole Slo Xi-Den has, as of late outdone himself in ‘teh stoopid’
That particular gaff was sooo bad Snopes initially said that it was “Fake” and they had to reverse themselves, after stating that “… it’s not uncommon for working class people to put their helmet on backwards while working.”
As if anyone from Snopes has ever worn a Hard Hat in their entire fucking lives, outside of the Tonka Hard Hat that we ALL had when we were 6-7 years old, playing with the Dump Truck or whatever… they wouldn’t have a CLUE as to the proper wear of PPE…
Hell, in Iraq for some of the jobs we had, I had (for a while) a cowboy hat safety helmet:
Had it until I went on leave, and someone decided they liked it moar than I did. Rat bastard… never did find out who snatched it…
SO, “Team Carcass” is in trouble. We know it, They know it.
The latest out from James O’Keefe’s latest sting is proof positive that those surrounding the Corpse in Chief is never going to make it over the line to another full term.
The problem stems from the fact is that they ain’t got a good second choice. According to the source, one Charlie Kraiger – who is a Cybersecurity Policy Analyst and Foreign Affairs Desk Officer in the Executive Office at the White House pretty much gave up ALL the intel to O’Keefe regarding the ‘behind the curtain’ action in the Oval Orifice.
The article link is HERE
What’s even moar hilarious is Kraiger didn’t recognize O’Keefe desipte being the “Cybersecurity Policy Analyst” who, under normal circumstances this guy should be well aware of any potential adversary. But, I guess trying to ‘dip his wick’ was more important. Yeah, he’s a degenerate fag. They set up the meet up on Grinder or some such queer version of Tinder.
Shit like that is exactly why back in the day, Homosexuals were not allowed to hold clearances or sensitive positions. I think this’s the second, or may even be the third gay guy they’ve caught on tape giving up intel, mainly to show off “how important” they are and impress their “date” with what a big deal they are…
Fuck man… what a maroon.

Not sure how this particular ‘thing’ is going to play out or how they’re going to spin it:
Uhhh
Ok…
Got a hunch they’re going to spin up Ye Olde Memory Hole as fast as fucking possible… Like a Warp Speed Spin Up…
The last thing they want to do is have this give –anyone else– any ideas in the same groove. Not for nothing, got no idea if the guy is a full-on nutjob… I mean he obviously is but there’s ‘nuts’ as in the guy has a loooong history of being a Schizophrenic and/or on an even loooonger list of psychotropic drugs, OR he’s ‘nuts’, as in he just finally said “I’m fucking DONE!” and went full house-psycho on his old man…
Story is here: LINK (Let’s see if it gets memory holed)
So, there’s got to be a story behind this. Dad was 68 and a Boomer. Kid, named Justin Mohn is 32, so that makes him a Millennial. Dad worked for the FedGov for 20+ years. My guess? Kid being 32, still living at Home, and maybe BoomerDad gave him the ‘bootstrap lecture’ one too many a time, and guy fucking flipped his collective shit.
Yeah.
“Off With His Head!!!”
But, the reason I say they’re gonna memory hole this?
The money quote from the article is:
“Mohn went on to say he was offering a $1 million bounty to anyone who could kill top officials including FBI Director Christopher Wray, Attorney General Merrick Garland and former Attorney General Bill Barr.”
The Daily Mail
Yeeeeeah…
Unless they’re absolutely fucking retarded even more that -I- believe, they’ll bury this story deeper than Epstein’s Client List. Now, considering just how stupid some of the jackholes who’re running the show in the country right now, they might just go Full Retard and blame MAGA and Trump or some such… Thing is, this right here is something I’ve been watching for.
I’ve said it a multiplicity of times.
The Head Honchos out there?
Pretty Untouchable.
Lots of Guards, Security… what have you.
The Support Staff/Lower Bureaucrats and whatnot?
VERY Fucking Touchable.
Never mind their ‘support staff’ to include families and ‘other’ things. I mean look at what happened to that Mayor in France who was promoting his Village as a migrant sanctuary.
“The mayor of a small French town whose home was set on fire amid a bitter battle over bringing in migrants is resigning from his job of overseeing an increasingly divided community.”
Associated Press, May 11, 2023
Seems the Mayor ‘got the message’ and GTFO while he still could. They firebombed his crib with him and his family inside, and torched two of his cars in the driveway.
He’s lucky.
Like I said, not sure if the kid above is a Genuine Nutjob or a “Momentary Loss of Sanity” Nutjob… either way, gotta say, it takes a lot to remove a human casaba off of one’s neck and/or shoulders.
Now I’m not promoting anything. Nope, I’m just a JAFO. Just Another Fucking Observer. And I’m figuring we might… waitaminute… come to think of it, IF some individual DID take in on themselves to start ‘cleaning up certain issues’ they more than likely wouldn’t let anyone know, ‘cos THAT would most definitely spawn a HUUUGE level of copycats, so no…
Probably won’t be hearing anything about wide swathes of FedGov Drones and Petty Bureaucrats being found dead of ‘suddenly’ and/or random muggings like the DemoncRat Kid Seth Rich that they had murdered for comping all of Killary’s emails and dirt to Assange.
Word I got was that he was murdered by two hired hand MS-13 thugs for leaking the thumb drive full of dirt to Assange. The MS-13 hitters were hired to do the deed, and then when they showed up to get paid, they in turn got whacked by a dependable contractor who’s known for doing dirty for the Clintons et al. No one was going to miss a pair of illegal MS-13 Gang Members Aye?
Shit is right out of a Reacher Episode innit?
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes!
Bah
Doctors and the like. Fucking hate the croakers. Even WITH Insurance the cost of all of these visits is starting to cost. Next on is a $300 up-front copay for the next MRI? CAT? Mammo? Not even sure. Anyways, feel free to hit the Paypal if’n you can as it’d help.
Now, Besides being run thru the titty-wringer (literally in Gretchen’s case) I’ve been watching and seeing the whole unfolding of the Taylor Swift/NFL/Travis Kelce PsyOp unfolding right in front of us…
A fucking disturbing video IMO…
From the comments: “TFW When you realize the target they’re referring to in the video is you.” Indeed.
They’ve been all over the news worldwide.
It’s enough to make one puke.
She’s a flat-assed 34 year old brainless singer who’s fully co-opted by Soros and Company. She started out in 05 as a moderate Country Singer out of Nashville, and somehow managed to get noticed by all the right (or wrong depending on your perspective) people.
Before this marketing push, she was best known as a chick who was famous for singing about all the shitty men she chose to slore on her cock-carousel.
Somehow, this managed to translate to all the tween girls out there, and next thing you know, she’s “dating” Travis Kelce of the Chiefs…
Reason I use quotes around that was Enty over on CDAN had a blind months ago saying that the whole relationshit was transactional. The NFL has been suffering for years with a significant drop in viewership and ticket sales. What not a better thing than to get “The ‘IT’ Girl” of the Year and promote a relationshit with a well know Hero-Sportsball player?
Then, make sure that the Team that the Hero plays for not only gets into the Stupor-Bowl, but wins it? Yeah, I’m calling it now… Chiefs 42, Other (I don’t even know who they’re playing) 38, with some oh so close calls and a last minute WIN!
Maybe I’m wrong but hey, it is “sports entertainment” according to the charter. Just like the World Wrestling Entertainment, it’s a show. IT’S NOT. REAL.
I figured that out when the Patriots went to their very first Stupor-Bowl. Remember when that was? Yep. Right After 9-11.
Of course that “PATRIOTS” were going to be “The Winningest Team EVVAR!!!” that year. Not only that, when the team was introduced onto the field, for the first time ever, instead of naming off the individual players, they all were announced as ONE BIG TEAM!!!! running onto the feild all at once…
How ‘Murican!
How Patriotic!
Yay Sportsball!
Jeez…
So lots of people have come to the ‘wake up’ time… especially in light of how hard they’ve been pushing it. In fact, that’s part of their problem. They lack intelligence in pushing this sort of shytte, so they lack subtlety. This particular shitshow is so blatant and in your face, I think it’ll backfire.
Vivek and Jack get it…
I mean she’s never been one to hide her true feelings:
There’s also a reason you never see her being interviewed. I found ONE clip that’s out there from around 2020, and let me tell you, ‘ditzy dumbass blonde cumdumpster’ is a pretty accurate description.
If she picked her nose, the roof of her skull just might cave it, as she’d be undermining the support structure that’s there.
Jes’ Sayin’
So, high-on-her-own-supply, and probably in coordination with the PsyOps kids, as well as the DemoncRats, they think they can mobilize the “Swifties” to voat… some numbers being tossed around is 15 percentage points of the idiots out there who ‘follow the programming’ will voat for “the current thing”.
Sums it up nicely there Aye?
The good news is that in the same poll, 17 percent of folks said they’d do the polar opposite of what Tay-Tay calls for…
So not everyone is that retarded out there thankfully. It’s just amazing to me how many fucking sheep buy into this sort of thing. Hopefully we don’t get a (s)election this year… that’s my wish.
Let ’em suspend it, postpone it, delegitimize themselves.
Can’t hurt me:
So, Your thoughts?
My thanks for y’alls support, patience and prayers.
Makes a world of difference to me.

So, t’was our turn to Celebrate the –6th– Birfday of the Redheaded Nuklear Powered Gran. She hit the marker on this past Tuesday, but appointments and reasons we couldn’t attend the celebration on the day itself.
So today was the throwdown.
Maaan… she’s six
Where in the ever loving hell did the time go???
We took her to an honest to God toy store that’s up in Wesley Chapel… Turtle’s Toys or some such. It was a massive throwback to the ‘old days’ when toy stores still existed. Wasn’t overpriced either. She got to pick out three toys. One from each of us, being Myself, Gretch, and Sapper (who actually ventured out with us, which is unusual as normally Sunday is his busy day at work). The only limitation was $$$ and the ‘type’ of toy… none of that “Bratz” pseudo-slut female gggggggirl dollys or shytte like that Aye?
She actually picked out three very cute and nice toys. One was a Barbie-ish (offbrand, so cheaper Yay!) doll with a wardrobe of clothing and outfits to change into, as well as a princess doll w/ MOAR outfits to change her into, and some coloring book thingy.
Had to talk her out of the $100 Giraffe…
Even if I -did- buy it for her, how the hell was I going to fit it in our itty-bitty Hyundai?
Then, after the toys were handled, it was off to the Main Event.
Literally.
That’s the name of it “Main Event”
It’s a BIG chain like “Dave and Busters” except with more ‘stuff’ to do… Bowling, Pool, Laser Tag, Video Games… a major entertainment complex. We did lunch first, which after she had her pepperoni pizza, (“heavy on the cheese” mind you) she got her birfday dessert:
Oreo Cheesecake…
And nope, there were NO leftovers for Big Papi to have (queue sad face). Once she got done with that, and after she had talked up like everyone in the immediate area, we did the bowling thing. And no shit, she damned near handed ALL of us our asses.
She didn’t use the kid bumpers, but did use what I took to calling the ‘ball launcher’ as she couldn’t really heave the ball. Not even kidding, she got 2nd place out of the four of us playing, and the ONLY reason I won was I got lucky and got a strike. Lil Goober had mad ability compared to the rest of us.
Sapper almost requested the bumpers as his handle came close to being changed to “Gutterball”.
In all reality, we, the adults, were definitely feeling out age(s). I was so stiff, I couldn’t do the traditional “walk up, slide and bend and throw/roll the ball” towards the pins. It was more like “Lurch up to the line, and heave that fucker at warp speed, damn how loud or hard the ball hit when it finally made contact with the alley”…
Sort of a “Hulk SMASH!!!” approach to bowling.
So, that was today. Living life, albeit sore and a wee bit sorry after the fact. As far as the -other- stuff, I greatly appreciate everyone’s comments, concerns and prayers for Gretchen. We still have another round on the Titty-Squisher™ to get comparables so’s we can see what may or may not be going on. Never fear though people, I’m on the case.
I mean I know how to deal with these CancerQuacks.
DeadDad earned that moniker waaay too early due to them pushing the “Regular Treatment Plan” consisting of Loads of Chemo (at $26k a throw, mostly covered by insurance thank God) and Radiation (which left him feeling like shit, and bald AF), and finally, towards the end some surgery.
Seven. Fucking. Years. he had to go through all that shit.
Agony. Miserable. Hating it.
His last year (I was in Iraq) he decided he was done fucking around, and called ENDEX (End of Exercise) on all the shit so’s he had a few months of quality left with MomUnit before he cashed in.
Because of having observing this (from afar, as I was overseas the majority of that shytteshow) and hearing and on the occasion of seeing it (like at FedBros wedding and a couple of other times), when -I- got diagnosed with Stage 3 Lung Cancer, I wasn’t falling for the “standard protocol” bullshit.
Not that they didn’t try that like O’Shytte.
I was lucky and got to be treated at Moffit here in Tampa. When I went in, I was pretty fucking upfront about the treatment plan. ‘Plan A’ was that I told them to cut the whole lower left half of the lung out ASAP.
It took some threats and coercion on my part… I had to explain to the FrogDoc (French Canoehead CancerDoc) that IF he tried to debate me vis-a-vis cutting it out RT-RT (Right There/Right Then) that ‘Plan B’ was that I’d go home, have a couple dozen drinks of Jim Beam to wash down a handful of Oxys, wait 15 mikes, and then have an accident while cleaning my 9mm that just -happens- to blow a large-ish hole thru said afflicted airbag.
Told him if he didn’t believe me, to pull my psyche file from the VA (who Moffit is partnered with surprisingly). Gave him a few days, and whaddya know? They went with ‘Plan A.’
And I’m alive and kickin’ because of it.
Now, I’m praying hard that this’s a false alarm. I’ve become rather fond(le) of Gretchens Hooties. I’d rather -not- have them get fucked up, as that’d be like desecrating a classical artwork…
However, there ARE ways of mitigating the damage. Our good Fren Doc Samizdat is doing some research for me as he’s ‘wired in’ so to speak in that particular field. Can’t thank him or y’all who’ve been helping across the board.
As the title said at the top, life don’t stop… you can’t really let everything keep you down. Right now we’re int he midst of some of the wildest shit that’s been seen in over 200 years here going on, and as the Carnies in Gip-Town say about the spinning wheel, (as a metaphor for life), “Round and round she goes… where she stops, nobody knows!”
“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.“
Ferris Bueller
We’ll see where things end up. I’ll do a bit of a breakdown tomorrow as I’m curious to see what happens after the warmongers in DC have made a call for us to hit Iran again despite the fact that our ‘current day DotMil’ is at it’s lowest and weakest that it’s been since right before the Korean War.
Going to be getting weirder.

This’s getting –OLD–
I’m so emotionally drained it’s not funny.
Like zombie-mode
1000 Yard Stare Mode
No update on Gretch. Waiting on test results and whatnot. Some of y’all figured it out. The E.R. found a lump, which under normal circumstances, not a big deal.
HOWEVER
BIG history of breast cancer in the fam. Her Granma cashed from it. Her Mom got it, and survived, albeit significantly boobie-reduced. In Gretch’s case, well, seems said lump (which I hadn’t noticed despite the regular groping and titty-time) has already grown a wee bit.
I know it just may be -me- thinking it, however, it -has- gotten a wee bit larger and pronounced. Tests and whatnot ongoing, and the prayers have been really welcome and appreciated. I’ll deal with it as we go, as it’s not my first rodeo with the “Big C” having had a nice bout of it myself a few years back.
Only cost me 1/2+ an airbag, but who’s counting?
As the Sergeant from the 1980 classic “The Big Red One” said:
“That’s why they give you two.”
Of course he was talking about Smitty’s ball(s) being blown off by a castration mine, but balls, lung… whatever… I’m shy half an airbag and still kicking thankfully.
Hopefully we get better news tomorrow or at least by Monday.
This’s been the longest, slowest week I’ve gone through in about ten years. The waiting is killing me. Anyways, that’s the update for her… moving on to sadder news
Tonight and the reason I’m poasting is I got word thru Facebook that a very good friend of mine from Iraq died a few days ago. Hilal Ahmed Abu Dlou, better known as ‘Spidi’ or ‘Speedy’ to us ‘Muricans, cashed in after a heart attack five days ago in Lebanon.
He leaves behind two really cute kids, a wife and a big family.
Damn it.
He was about 8 years younger than me.
I always gave him shit about his diet… he never met a hamburger that he didn’t love. Guess it finally caught up.
Again, Damn it.
I talked to him not even two/three weeks ago… yeah… I stayed in pretty close contact with him… especially when the Izzys went batshit and started doing full on ¡Genociding! of the Palestinians.
I offered up to sponsor him and his immediate fam to come here to the states to live if the Zio-Clowns in Izzystan decided they wanted to roll hot North into Lebanon where he was located. He’s Palestinian by birth BTW.
People can talk shit all they want about the Palestinians being worthless motherfuckers who’d rather destroy shit and be parasites and whatnot rather than get their collective shit together? Of course. Look at the blaq BLM population of the Untied Staatz and tell me they’re any different from Hamas. Only dif is that BLM lacks the balls to do something significant against their ‘supposed’ oppressors. ALL groups have “that retarded group” of asocial fucktards… ALL of them… White, blaq, Asian, Hispanic… everyone has “those people” in their tribe… however, in this case?
There are some great Palestinians out there, ones who genuinely are hardworking and awesome folks. Some of whom I’ve shed blood with and for, and some of which I proudly claim as brother, albeit from another mother. Speedy was one of them.
My brother Speedy, may you rest in peace, be it with Allah or whatever Greater Power there is. In the words of your own, Insh’Allah we will meet again Habibi.

Thank goodness for .xml files. I was able to pull the Flammenwerfer original poasts and save them to Word Documents, which I’m reproducing here.
Now, with the understanding that prices have gone pretty much insane since 2019 when I did the original project, expect MOAR Fiatbux to be spent on the whole kit and kaboodle.
Also, this’s the Mark One, Mod Zero Flammenwerfer.
There have been Modifications that’ve been done to improve the build and ease of things. I’ll include details on that after the fact. But, Poast One, Page One:
DISCLAIMER
THIS IS STRICTLY FOR LAUGHS AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. REAL SMART PEOPLE –DO NOT– BUILD HOME MADE FLAME THROWERS.
PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK, THE WEBMASTER AND THE CHAIRMAN DISAVAOW ANYTHING STUPID YOU MAY DO.
DO NOT RUN WITH SCISSOR, NOR TAUNT HAPPY FUN BALL
YMMV
“In the United States, private ownership of flamethrower is not restricted by federal law. Flamethrowers are legal in 48 states and restricted in California and Maryland.”
Yep. Legal. Suck it Fuzzballs.
It dawned on me just -why- they’re so terrified.
(insert music and deep voice) Since the Dawn of Time, fewer things have terrified man, and proto-man more than burning to death. (end music) Horrible way to go really. And here the fuzz were in a stand off with an at the time mentally unbalanced dude with the ability to roast them alive. As you can see, the ‘throw’ on it was about 40-50 feet, but thats because I was running pure 87 octane which burned off w/out sticking… if I had been running Napalm, the throw goes out to 80-100 feet…
In CQB thats good enough to count along with Horseshoes, Hand Grenades, Nukes, and Bad Analogies.
Kevlar doesn’t do shit. In fact, Kevlar is a ‘no-no’ as it melts and adheres to the skin. If I had decided (not that I could) to go Full Retard, the night might have made international news, never mind national or local. Thankfully it didn’t happen.
But in the interest of these now Screaming Socialists and Retardigans running for the Orifice of the Criminal In Chief, I thought it was my public duty to inform my readership as to the alternatives to an AR-15. Home defense has never been so much fun, but be aware it’s as dangerous to the user, and I -highly- recommend that the novice NOT fuck around.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Do NOT try this at Home. Do NOT build a flame thrower if you are a fucking moron with delusions of being a handyman. Do not use to dry pets. The author is strictly relaying humorous and theoretical anecdotes so please don’t blame me if you F.A.F.O. DO NOT BUILD IF IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND OR CALIFORNIA. Them fuckers got no sense of humor.
That being said and out of the way? as I said.
Legal.
Scares the FUCK out of Coparoaches.
Did I mention easy as fuck to build if yer not a complete fucking idiot?
And cheap? I got ALL the parts on Amazon with Prime shipping for less than $350. (This now being Modified by X2)
Red Flag Laws you say? Flammenwerfer I say. F.A.F.O. Mister “I’m here to arrest you because you didn’t follow the law!”
Thats rich.
Confiscation?
Bring it.

ASSEMBLY TIME
For the sake of clarity, Parts will be in BOLD BLACK
Tools will be shown in BOLD ITALIC
So Step One:
I started off by doing accountability of ALL the parts. Once I had them together, I literally started from the top down. First thing, Take the Main tank, the 20LB Large Tank, and using the 1 ¼ INCH WRENCH remove the Tank Fill Valve. Depending on which model you bought, there may be a spinning black plastic guard. This does NOT need to be removed. In fact, I suggest leaving it on there to assist in protecting the Tank Fill Valve.
Step Two:
Using the Yellow Teflon Tape, wrap the threads of the Tank Fill Valve on the upper part of the valve. DO NOT WRAP THE BASE OF THE VALVE. This’s because it’ll make it impossible to remove it from the tank when you are trying to refill the Main Tank..
Gather the following parts:
1/8” Male NPT To 1/8” Male NPT X 4.5” Length https://amzn2kQ656A.to/
1/8” Male NPT To 1/8” Male NPT X 3” Length https://amzn.to/2ncG5mN
1/4” Male NPT x 1/8” Female NPT Reducer https://amzn.to/2kRvigX
Female Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Male NPT https://amzn.to/2mXkvTe
Male Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Male NPT https://amzn.to/2mPuxpg
And do the same. Wrap all of the threaded sections of the gathered parts with between 2 ½ to 3 turns on the threads. Make sure its neat and tight and that you cut it away -cleanly-. Put these aside for now, but have them ready for:
Step Three:
Parts Needed:
320 cga Female To 1/8″ Female NPT https://amzn.to/2lpsuYE
This is made up of 3 individual sub-parts including a Large Brass Nut, a Small Brass Nut, and a Plastic White Washer
From the set aside parts, get the 1/8” Male NPT To 1/8” Male NPT X 4.5” Length https://amzn2kQ656A.to/
Paintball Universal Fill Adapter https://amzn.to/2mWhXVs
Take the small brass nut from the 320 cga female to 1/8″ female NPT and thread it onto the 1/8” male NPT to 1/8” male NPT x 4.5” length Tighten as much as you can by hand.
Take this assembly, and insert the tube into the Large Brass Nut like so:
Once you have this ready, the Large Brass Nut should be hanging relatively loose. Get The Universal Paint Ball Fill Adapter, and insert the other end of the 1/8” male NPT to 1/8” male NPT x 4.5” length
Into the 1/8th hole in the side of the Fill Adapter. Once its hand tight, get the 11/16” Deep Socket ½” Drive and the 1/2inch drive socket. Slide the Large Brass Nut off of the Small Brass Nut and insert the Small Brass Nut into the 11/16” Deep Socket ½” Drive and -FIRMLY- crank the 1/8” male all the way into the Paint Ball Fill Adapter. Make sure its nice n’ tight, as this is a potential leak area where the propellant gasses are going to be feeding the Flammenwerfer. Once its good, slide the small nutback into the Large nut, insert the Plastic White Washer into the Large Bass Nut to secure the small nut inside. Click it in place so the tube is locked in place.
Once this’s completed, you should have an assembly that looks like this:
The next step is a Pressure test. I suggest doing this first so that you know you ain’t got no leaks. Especially before you start drilling on the tank itself, because once that’s done, chasing itty-bitty air leaks is a stone bitch (as I found out the hard way.)
Step Four: Air Pressure Assembly Test
Reassemble the Tank Fill Valve onto the tank. Be careful re-threading it on the tank. The tank is aluminum, and if you cross thread it, say goodbye to about $100. Once you have it on, (being careful of the plastic guard, give the Fill Valve a slightly more-than-hand-tight spin. You -don’t- want to crank down on it. Just enough for the rubber gasket to fully engage.
What You DO need to get ready is the 1-1/8” wrench. You’ll be utilizing this on the Large Brass Nut to crank the assembly nice n’tight. The Universal Filler Valve needs to be vertical with it’s valve on top.
Once thats locked in and EVERYTHING is tight, grab a 24oz CO2 Tank https://amzn.to/2moGdzl
And take it down to the local paintball store to get it filled. Should be about 5 bux to get it filled. This’s why I like to have a few extra (2X for a total of 3) on hand. Once it’s filled, bring it home and get s dish with some soapy water for a leak test. 2:1 ratio dawn detergent so it’ll blow nice bubbles if/when it leaks. Install it into the Universal Filler Valve. Make sure that you have both valve(s)closed BEFORE you install the CO2 tank.
Insert the CO2 tank into the Universal Filler Valve first. Look and listen to see if it is holding pressure. If so, Open the Valve. Watch the seams on the junction points. Dribble some soapy water on it. Observe. No bubbles = good. Open the Main Tank Valve. You should hear the tank fill with CO2 and become pressurized. Be VERY CAREFUL while doing this. I recommend Eye Protection and leather gloves in case -something- ruptures.
If there are no apparent leaks, Turn off the Valves in reverse order. Remove the CO2 Tank SLOWLY. Bleed off the CO2 CAREFULLY EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. Fuck around, and you’ll find out the hard way.
Now, We’re gonna tackle the main Tank Prep, as in Prepping, drilling and tapping, then installing the bayonet valve that the hose will be attached to. For this evolution, You’ll need the following part:
20 lb CO2 Tank https://amzn.to/2muHXH0
And the Tools to use:
Drill press with 1/2” chuck -or- (b) Power drill with 1/2″ chuck
1/2” drive socket wrench
9/16” 8-point socket 1/2” drive
1/2” Dewalt pilot-point drill bit
37/64” Drill bit
3/8″-18 NPT thread tap
Cutting oil
Setup is as Follows. At this point you’ve reattached the newly built Universal Filler Valve and tightened it down when performing your pressure/overpressure test. With it set in the drill press (or workbench) measure out 90 degrees on either the left side or right side.
Because the hose that feeds the fuel to the nozzle is only 3-4 foot long (I used a 3 foot hose) you need to insure that you cut in on the correct side of the tank. If yer a righty, cut on the right side. If’n yer a southpaw, cut left. Once you unfuck yerself on the whole left/right thing, just realize that the pressure container, the 24oz CO2 Tank https://amzn.to/2moGdzl is going to be centered on the back of the tank on your frame.
Once you have the side picked out, Remove the Universal Tank Filler / Pressurization System. Mark the side you want to use roughly one inch from the bottom. Once you have the tank stripped down, roll it 90 degrees up to the side you wish to drill. Measure ONE INCH from the base of the 20 lb CO2 Tank and https://amzn.to/2muHXH0 and then prep to drill.
Make sure the tank is secure. Squirt a lil cuttin’ oil on the spot your going to drill. Using the 1/2” Dewalt pilot-point drill bit, begin cutting into the tank -SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY-. You’ll be getting a huge amount of shavings and keep adding the cutting oil as needed. Take your time and do it in stages is my approach.
This is your starting hole. Once it’s cleanly punched through, change out to the larger finishing bit, the 37/64” Drill bit. Add more cutting oil, and cleanly cut out the remaining metal, expanding the hole to 37/64ths.
OK. So now you got the hole. Take the square side of the 3/8″-18 NPT thread tap into the 9/16” 8-point socket 1/2” drive and insert the threaded side of the 3/8″-18 NPT thread tap into the 37/64” hole. Begin cutting the threads by turning the 3/8″-18 NPT thread tap clockwise ensuring that the 3/8″-18 NPT thread tap is perpendicular to the surface of the large tank.
There is NO SUCH THING AS BEING TOO CAREFUL OR SLOW! Make sure you cut slowly, adding cutting oil regularly so’s the thread cutter doesn’t get bonded or stuck to the metal. Continue cutting until only 6-7 threads of the 3/8″-18 NPT thread tap are exposed above the surface of the large tank. This -should- complete this evolution.
Step Two: Rinse out the tank.
Now that you’ve drilled and tapped the tank, you HAVE to make sure you get ALL of the little fiddly bits of shavings and metal out of the tank. Very carefully so as to not to damage the threads, use an old toothbrush or gun cleaning toothbrush to remove any clinging bits of aluminum around the tap hole. Blow out / shake out all remaining bit. Me? I triple rinsed with water, shaking the shit out of the tank to make sure it was clean. One itty-bit of metal in there when yer doing ‘flame on’ can cause BIG “Fiery-Ball-O’Death” Issues. Big Safety Tip: Thoroughly clean the tank.
Step Three: Install the feeder nipple.
Parts Needed:
Male Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Male NPT https://amzn.to/2mPuxpg
20 lb CO2 Tank https://amzn.to/2muHXH0 (Now with hole drilled and tapped)
Yellow Teflon Tape
Tools Needed:
1/2” drive socket wrench
11/16” deep socket 1/2” drive
Take the Male Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Male NPT and wrap two to 2.5 times around the threads. Mate up the threads to the 37/64” hole and thread it in. Once you have it cleanly started, finish securing it completely to the tank using the socket wrench and 11/16 drive.
Annnnnnd more to go… we’re almost completed on the hard stuff… the rest is pretty easy. Lotsa pressure checks and a bit more modifications to the pressure washer wand, but for the most part, some of y’all cool kids make be able to figure out the rest….
and one last time for the slow kids in the back:
DISCLAIMER:
I AIN’T RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIT.
I KNOW NUTHIN’ I HEAR NUTHIN’ AND I SEE NUTHIN’.
THIS’S STRICTLY FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES
AND IF YOU ARE CRAZY ENOUGH
TO FOLLOW THE BOUNCING BALL, ITS -ALL- ON YOU.
Now: Part 4 of this is going to be the Hose and Gun Build.
Parts Needed:
Female Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Male NPT https://amzn.to/2mXkvTe
Female Quick Disconnect x 3/8” Female NPT https://amzn.to/2kNQODg
High Pressure Hose 3’ https://amzn.to/2kQddzS
Teflon Tape Yellow https://amzn.to/2n9LJ98
Tools Needed:
1” Wrench
7/8” Wrench
¾” Wrench
Simple really. Wrap all the parts with the Yellow Teflon Tape. It’s really important to use the yellow as it’s resistant to petroleum based stuff like, oh Napalm and gas… using -regular- Teflon tape and yer hosed (pardon the pun.)
You’ll want to connect the hose(s) to the fittings hand tight at first, then crank them down with the wrenches thusly:
Scissoring them nice n’ tight. You do NOT want any leaks in the hose area. Things could get HOT muy malo.
OK… once thats done, you can connect the hose to your previously built tank and see if it fits. The quick releases are the bomb so to speak b/c it allows you to clear each section IF and only IF you have a clog or something goes pear-shaped during the running of this.
Onward now to the Gun Itself: For this
Parts Needed:
Blue Hawk Pressure Washer Gun https://amzn.to/2mrzQLD
M22 Male x 1/4” Female NPT https://amzn.to/2mpaEp2
1/4” Male NPT x 1/8” Female NPT Reducer https://amzn.to/2kRvigX
Red Brass Seamless Pipe Fitting, Nipple, Schedule 80, 1/8″ NPT Male X 3″ Length https://amzn.to/2kSl6VD
2X Anderson Metals Brass Pipe Fitting, Coupling, 1/8″ x 1/8″ Female Pipe https://amzn.to/2lrNJsP
Erie Tools Pressure Washer Twist Connect M22 X 3/8″ Quick Disconnect Plug 4500PSI Hig Pressure Brass Fitting 300° F Max Temp https://amzn.to/2lpJq1j
Bernzomatic TS4000 Trigger Start Torch https://amzn.to/2lsdnh7
Quick Disconnect Hose Clamps https://amzn.to/2lhikcP
16.4 oz Propane Cylinder (I buy mine at Lowes or Home Depot)
Tools Needed:
½” Drive socket Wrench
3/8” Drive socket Wrench
5/8” Socket ½” Drive
½” Socket 3/8” Drive
7/8 Wrench
OK Starting with the Red Brass Seamless Pipe Fitting, Nipple, Schedule 80, 1/8″ NPT Male X 3″ Length https://amzn.to/2kSl6VD, Tape all the threads again: (Small hint: do this to ALL THE THREADED PIECES PARTS. It’s a given that like -everything- on this puppy needs to be neatly sealed.) Once it’s ready, take the 2X Anderson Metals Brass Pipe Fitting, Coupling, 1/8″ x 1/8″ Female Pipe https://amzn.to/2lrNJsPand mount them on the pipe you just wrapped (heh… that sounds obscene…) Use the two socket drives thusly to insure again a -tight- fit:
Then take the M22 Male x 1/4” Female NPT https://amzn.to/2mpaEp2and crank THAT on. Once you have that installed, attach it to the front of the sprayer. You now have the gun completed ALMOST. The only thing left is to attach the Erie Tools Pressure Washer Twist Connect M22 X 3/8″ Quick Disconnect Plug 4500PSI High Pressure Brass Fitting 300° F Max Temp https://amzn.to/2lpJq1j to the end of the feed assembly.
Once this is done, you should be able to do a pressure test once you’ve connected the hoses to the tank and gun respectively. Give it a shot so to speak.
And it should look roughly like this:
Which then needs to have the propane tank slung underneath. For this I used some shims to stabilize it, and used the aforementioned Hose Clamps to strap it on. Adjustments will vary person-to-person. For that matter, it’s pretty much at this point complete.
Whew…
So there you have it.
“How to build your own Flammenwerfer”
That right there is the mini I made for a customer. I also modified the air feeder from the brass to a 10 foot coiled hose (you see above) which alleviated the stiffness of the brass and the C02 tank ‘hanging’ off the feed. Too much tension IMO, so with the coiled hose, I was able to put the C02 bottle into a pouch, and hang it on the frame:
As I said, YMMV.
Hope you all enjoyed.
Like I said, I know nuzzin’!!!

Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes!
Missed last night ‘cos I was (again) wiped out. I woke up literally at 14:45, or 2:45pm to you civvies. >YAWN!<
I’m still a wee bit tuckered out.
Taking care of biddness is a mo’fo ’round here. Waiting on Gretchen with her being down with a sickness, plus working, as well as maintaining all the rest of the house. I do 90% of the cooking around here, so I also am primarily responsible for meals. Dishes, cleaning, laundry… it never ends.
BTW, glad a lot of y’all are enjoying the Tater Soup. It’s a simple but hearty winter chow that is IMO a perfect meal for the cold nights. Glad y’all have enjoyed it.
I’ve also undertaken to re-write the “How To Make A Flammenwerfer” and -hopefully- will have it done by tomorrow. Fingers crossed. If not, it’ll be done when it’s done. I also have a Substack that’s getting finished, and a lot have requested a new video. Man I need to be cloned.
Otherwise, on “News That Caught Me Gimlet Eyeball” I found this lil bit:
Reading the actual article, it’s HILARIOUS that the Brits are becoming unhinged at this. Like “How dare he!” Link HERE
Moscow said it was taking the steps after Britain excluded Russia from the ‘most favoured nation’ trading status in March 2023, with German Zverev – president of the All-Russian Association of Fisheries – declaring the 1956 agreement was one-sided with no upside for Moscow.
The Daily Fail Jan 19, 2024
40% of the fishies that the Brits knock back on the daily is caught in the Barents. It used to be that Fish and Chips was a good, cheap meal in Britistan. When I was living there for about 4 months, it was the daily lunch, wrapped in a for-real newspaper.
Never did cotton on to the vinegar thing that they all slathered on… just lemon salt and pepper for this here Whytteboi. Got a hunch that the cost is now going to be significantly higher.
Gotta love it.
Fuck Around, Find Out Aye?
And as far as any potential conflict IF the Royal Navy decides that they’re going to stop the Russians from stopping their (the Brit) fishing boats? Well, lets check in on that:
That’s mighty fine work there Lou.
I’d have to say that the Brits as of now are done.
Over. Past Tense. No Longer Viable. Conquered.
C’est la Vie.
Now, back to a poast a few days ago:
“DeadMan” Austin, the DeadSecDef.
There has, as on now, ZERO real proof of life.
CONgress has subpoenaed to testify before a special congressional committee on February 14 for his being AWOL. In turn, he’s supposed to be answering in writing on February 7th, as “he’s too sick” to show up in person.
Going off MY theory?
That’s the equivalent of the Krain putting a big Red Circle “X” on their “Political Assassination Targets” website. The one where they’ve publiocally stated that they were going to be going after and encouraged others to be going after and killing “Enemies of the Krain” and whatnot…
Russia’s website was similar, but didn’t call for the extermination of folks… just a “Who’s-Who” of the enemies of Russia.
And now Austin’s profile has been removed.
As said by that blaq a few years back: “Yo, that nigga dead yo!”
Granted a bit outside the box, but telling nonetheless. I personally think it’s going to be hilarious when they announce his retirement and subsequent ‘death due to long illness.’ Not that they really care or anything, but It’s not going to help any of the Leviathan Credibility UNLESS they can get a real-life dood to start walking and talking that’s actually him. The very fact that they’re sloooowly sliding him out show that that nigga dead yo.
BTW: finally found the pic supposedly of Biden visiting DeadMan:
I don’t buy it.
That could be James Earl Jones on that bed…
Hell, it could be James Earl Ray in Blackface on that bed…
Either ways, it’s good times, good times all around.
Mainly because we still have the ability to order a pizza, buy moar bullets and guns, and we’ve still got the lights on. Thank God for small miracles Aye?

Greetings and All That
Gretchen woke up in a heap o’pain today, so off to the E.R. where I got to have my blood pressure shoot stratospheric as it was full-on packed with illegals. All sniffling, sneezing stuffy head fucking probably contagious AF literally packing the E.R. It was 6+ hours before she got to a room, and then an additional 6? 7? hours before the doc got in there.
She’s got a Kidney Infection. They scanned her (CAT) and sampled ALL the fluids (checked the oil, radiator, transmission and the like) and then drugged her, set up some scripts and then sent her back home with me. She’s resting and ok far as I can tell…
Reason I know they were illegals BTW?
NONE of them spoke a -lick- of English.
Not one stinking dink body of them
They had a fucking translator there to assist, which stretched out the fucking wait as the translator was working way double hard overtime. There were actually two, one who seemed to be speaks something other than Spanish… Peruvian maybe? The majority of them were Squatamalens that I could tell, not Mexicans… they had that Peruvian/Andes look to them, rather than that lighter skinned Castilian Spanish… VERY Brown and VERY South of the Border. I was half expecting to see a Burro or Llama or two in the parking lot after seeing that shit.
Jes’ Sayin’
So, I’m sorta-kinda done. Going to have to work Saturday now to make up the lost hours dammit. Ah well, fuck it.
