house here, I've hooked up what resembles a giant hamster wheel. It's hiding
outside under a cover to keep it cool, but also so the neighbors can't hear it
or see it easily.
Now, inside that wheel are all those damn dogs and cats from the neighborhood
that I've wanted to put a bullet in for friggin years!!! You just
chain'em up to the
center of the wheel and they walk themselves. There's a little motor on the
bottom to keep the wheel in perpetual motion so they don't try to stop or sleep
at all. Catch pan for the other messes, though really it makes excellent
fertilizer more than anything else - really large tomato crop this season!
So I run those little bastages day and night, charging Li-ion fuel
cells packed
together in an assembly I made myself. Rather nice! Kinda like a solar array
but it'll hold more and last longer, less memory build-up. I know, I know, the
first question you have is 'what about them animals? Don't they keel over?'
Uh, well ya. Stink the place up too if you don't keep up on them. But on
average I only have to troll the area once a week and stick'em in there, just
remove the dead ones from their leashes. They keep moving till it's too late
and then the others move their carcasses out of the wheel because they need
it clear to keep running themselves. Once in a rare while they get jammed up
and stop the wheel, that's a real mess. Hate that.
But, as a whole with a load of about 7-10 animals running 24/7 each week
I produce about 15K/wh of pure, clean and natural energy that allows me to
not only power my gaming system and multiple LCD's in my mansion, ya
know because I'm a rich American and all that, but it also powers that little
motor to keep them running and recharges my GM concept all-electric car
from Saturn I've had hidden in the driveway. I can do like 65mph and go about
150 miles on a charge! So they keep that puppy (oh, sorry) fully charged all
the time. So A/C, 360, LCD HDTV's, Saturn All-Electric. All outta one big
hamster wheel and some useless animals that no one really cares about
because in the US - they're expendable!! Or experimental, depending on
what they're paying for the things at the test lab each week. Right now
scrap metal's far more valuable so it's more fun to go strip the neighbor's
houses and turn all that stuff in!
Oh, what a riot. Should've seen my one neighbor Bob's reaction when I
swiped his 1860's all-copper franklin-style stove. I mean priceless! I got
like thousands and even video-taped the meltdown, showed it to him later
for a laugh. Good times, good times!
Now of course he came to my place to watch it because I use all-natural
power off the grid to help save the environment. Police weren't so entertained
but they did give me a stern warning and let me off scot-free because they
saw how environmentally responsible my home was!
