If you wanted to get real semantic about things you could call a can of beer a “high carb meal replacement malted beverage”. In which case beer wins, hands down.

Nedry was a narcissistic criminal who’s actions led to the deaths of three people and hundreds of millions of dollars in property damage. He also completely botched his whole plan and got himself killed. He is not the best character to choose for delivering uplifting dialog.

I just looked at this place on google earth, and I’ve done a fair bit of kayaking.

This is a sketchy place for kayaking specifically. If there is a company renting kayaks there you won’t be the last person in this exact scenario. The channel you’re talking about is the bottom of a funnel created by the two islands, low pressure system to the south of those islands will draw all the water and air toward it. This basically turns these islands into a geographical kayak gun aimed at the South China Sea.

If you want a door you need some sort of frame and jamb, you can get real fancy and customize that however you want.

My suggestion would be to get a bifold door kit, you can cut three inches off top and bottom of the door a lot easier with a bifold than with a swing door. With a hollow core door when you cut it for height you end up with a hollow cavity at the cut and have to fill it in. With bifold doors you have to use the cut off pieces as a guide to drill similar holes in the new fill pieces. The door comes with a kit and instructions, you can install it directly in a drywall opening without any demo, the kit allows a bit of flexibility for adjustment for getting it right for height and plumb.

There are lots of other options, but this is the cheapest and most straightforward in my eyes. The main things you have to watch out for is that the holes in top and bottom get drilled in the right location. The depth doesn’t matter and they don’t have to be perfectly plumb, but if they aren’t laid out properly the door won’t swing right. Being smart about using the cut off as a guide or jig, and double checking before drilling is best bet. If you mess up you can re-drill the holes or replace the piece but it’s a bit of a pain.

It was pretty damn cold this weekend too. I was hunting an area less than twenty miles from where this happened, although I didn’t hear about it at the time. It was mid twenties overnight with heavy snow at times and mild wind. Definitely bad conditions for being soaking wet and a mile from shelter.

It’s third largest by volume and largest by surface area…I grew up a stones throw from Lake Superior literally had to learn this in elementary school, not trying to be a dick just immediately popped in my head. Lake Superior is a beast, I’ve done all sorts of stupid things in and around that lake, it’s come close to killing me twice, probably my favorite place in the world.
