Utterpower’s Lexicon

There’s so many words and phrases I have wanted to put in one place for reference.  Since I soon forget them,  I thought I’d start to write them down today.  We DIYers create a lot of our own language..

lex·i·con/?leksi?kän/

Ahwillem

A question we ask ourselves, does the author attempt to deceive others, or does  he deceive himself as well?  A website and company called Hydrovolts is an inspirational place to study.  A mention that the DOE has recognized their efforts is educational indeed! .. especially for young engineers.

 DOE 

This is very similar to the idea of giving enough Monkeys type writers. The word is used in the same context as Duh. A qualifier for the proper use of the word.. you should verify that the worthless machinery or Idea would not have been created in the private sector due to the fact that no one there would have funded it.  

Used in a sentence>

A mixture of fuels that defies common knowledge, scientific principles, basic physics. The fuel is claimed to deliver far more energy than its BTU value.

Note:  Joe Biden often promises ‘fairy fuel’ is just around the corner.

Utterpower

The power of a World Wide Community of hands on DIYers sharing ideas and solutions, and distilling them down to KISS.

Obamacare

2. A transfer of wealth from those who paid in to those who never have… all in the name of buying votes. 
3. The act of offering what looks like a free lunch in exchange for political support.

History will remember this as a similar event to having stolen the Social Security fund  and transferring the money to the general fund where it could be looted.  The public? .. too ignorant to notice their pants were down, and they were bent over..

Liberal Thinking

Evan Sayet, he ‘Sayet’ all.

Kept Man
