7X7 would work to, but it leaves more spaces unless you wind it in a tighter coil, which would defeat the purpose
How many rotations per inch?

How about angel hair in a twill weave, with alternating parallel and diagonal layers, and use a Ragu binder in a 1:1 weight ratio with the pasta.

You could make it hollow to save weight, and if the first test fails you still have a nutritious meal

I think the Ragu binder would make it too loosey-goosey, better off with an alfredo binder, more cheese molecules to bind with the pasta

I'm especially delighted that "Cuz Tom" is delivering "Lazarus" to you...

(.....and I know NOTHING about the 'other' stump issue......)


I'm sorry I can't be there for the Delivery and your first meeting with "Lazarus" -- but know that I'll be thinking of you.

Enjoy the ride home and know that the entire Camaro Team -- the engineers, the designers, The camaro "CORE" team - the Camaro 'Disciples" and our great men and women at Oshawa are hoping that you will be simply 'blown away' by your new ZL1.....




Enjoy the ride home - and be careful of the temps with those tires!!!
Thank you, Scott. I'll call you on the way home....squealing with delight....if you don't mind.

The ZL1...as a car...already blows me away, and then some. The fact that this one is MINE...my own.......my....precioussss......that will simply drive me over the edge, you can rest assured.

So, Pete and I think we need to twist the noodles in 10 strand sections for as much strength as possible.









I couldn't agree more. I'm pretty stoked for Joe!

Oh and.... I'm gonna be there... Got my tickets yesterday.
You suck.

Wait. You're going to be there?

You don't suck....as much.
