Since I got paid to calculate meas-.....never mind....I can't help myself. The 119 miles/sec could be anywhere from 118.5 mi/sec to 119.5 mi/sec., without specifying to what resolution (the number of digits) the speed was was specified to Anywhere from 426,600 mph to 430,200 mph would account...

Bear ? Bear ? Bear..... Shoulda said "KaPow"

Three for Three, RIP

Right. Me:, "What pumpkin ?"

My Harley is faster

I guess HIS lifetime ban from baseball has expired, but Rose shouldn't have had to wait to get in the HOF until he was dead. It's more of a black eye for MLB than betting on his own team ever was. Most games played. Most base hits. Perennial All-Star. That's first-ballot stuff.

It's Bullshit that MLB makes MILLIONS from on-line betting. Should MLB be banned from baseball ?

MLB makes millions on on-line gambling. Pete Rose bet on his own team and is banned from the HOF ?

Easier to shoot from a stationary position and stance much ?

My dad flew B-24s in Europe, and was telling someone that he landed after a bomb run and counted over a hundred bullet holes in the side of his plane. Any one of them could actually have been me.

Was that on the Collings' "Nine-o-Nine" ? When the USS Iowa was in the Mothball Fleet, the B-17 pilots unexpectedly flew over her. I had told myself that I was not going to stick my camera out of the plane, and I was standing in the roof opening when I saw her. I ended up sticking my camera...

Is that near Tower Bridge ? HMS Belfast was there a long time ago when I was there last, but I don't remember seeing her in camoflage. It could have been, though. It was a damp 'grey' day everywhere in London that day. Imagine that.

I'd seen somewhere that the Royal Navy (British) were dabbling with that particular design (around WWII, maybe ?) I'd figured camoflaged ships were submarines

That's great news ! Sounds like what my mom went through. She was fine with the temporary bag and did great. She was in too much of a hurry to have the ostomy reversed, though. She was our mom, and there was only so much we could do to stop her. I wish we could have got her to wait, but her...

Perforated is for targets. Not for people. (Well, maybe certain bad people.) Still hoping for good news... (I'm sitting here with a guitar in my lap so music lyrics seem to be hop-scotchig through my brains apologies to Tom Petty) "The waiting is the hardest part"

Duh. For his junk.

I take it life's been good so far ?

I did not know that. I'd rather have dropped O'bama instead of Netflix. Netflix was good for something. O'bama was good for nothing

To be clear-this thread is about guns and ammo. Not Yugos. If any family member gives me a YUGO for Christmas, two things will happen- I won't bring it home, and they won't be a family member anymore. But think about it. No California 11% gun or ammo tax AND no sales tax- that's getting close...

I had a friend who had an AAR 'Cuda 340 6-pack (AARs Cudas were SMALL-block homologation road racing cars for SCCA TransAm racing-think Boss 302/Z-28s but NOT Pontiacs ). He had long WHEELIE bars and he drove it on the street. They stuck out at least 3 feet past the bumper. I don't want to say...
