    That one isn't hard, people saw other creatures eating it.  

     

    The 2 foods I wonder about are olives and mushrooms.   You ever try an olive right off the tree?  So bitter it almost turns your face inside-out. 

    And mushrooms...."Well, Og ate one that looks like this and it killed him.   Erk ate this type and was dead before the Sun had moved 3 fingers in the sky....maybe this one won't kill me. "

  2. I am going to conditionally disagree with the "Everyone should put down their cameras and help!" mantra.  How many times have you seen a swarm of would be rescuers trying to get someone out of a crashed car but most just prevent anything really effective being done?  

     

    If you are one of the first 3 or 4, of course you work to free the victims rather than record it for YouTube.   But once you get more than that many (usually) untrained people working on the car all more people add is confusion and hindrance.   Then recording the event for police or insurance might be the best way to assist.   

     

    Of course,  if one of the people at work on the car asks or tells you to do something,  you do it.

     

    I learned half a century ago that sometimes the best thing you can do to help is stay out of the way, but be ready to assist if called to do so.

  3. Amazingly complex pieces of music. 

    Penny whistles

    Ocarina 

    Jews Harp

    People whistling 

    People...grunting?  huffing?

    Guitar 

    Those tubular bells

    Harmonica 

    Drums

    Special effects for the whip cracks and gunshots 

    Horns of various types 

     

    All blended into genius sound tracks.

    The 1916 Manual.   This opens up to the page for Chipped Beef but you can browse through.  I've tried several of the receipts, not just the beef, but also salads and desserts, and they're not bad.

    Well you know, if you only hear one side you don't really know what was going on.

     

    If she was sitting in the back of the truck, strumming on that acoustic, and singing as "loud" as she was talking - yeah, them neighbors was jerks.

     

    On the other hand, if she was sitting out there shredding on her electric, with the amp cranked up as high as it would go, and bellowing into the microphone - I'da called the law too.

     

    You don't know what was going on when you only hear one side.

     

    I'm going to take her word that she was sitting on the tailgate just like she said. 

     

    And, before 2200 she had every right to do that, even if  she was "shredding on her electric, with the amp cranked up as high as it would go, and bellowing into the microphone."

     

    But looking at some of her work on YouTube,  that's not her style.

    We wouldn’t be a real Air Force base if we didn’t have a golf course 🤣

     

    There are 2 holes at Airways golf course that share a fence line with the taxi way and people hit balls over the fence all the time. During daily airfield inspections we will find these stray balls and remove them so they don’t end up in an aircraft’s intake. 

     

     

    But that was you talking about picking them up?
