You never read Bill, I take it. Bill was a soldier. Lived in a time when medicine was so advanced that anything could be transplanted. So when people got killed, they would take anything that was usable and put it in the refrigerator until it was needed. Bill got his left arm blown off. And his best friend, who was a black guy, got blown up. They had no left arms left in the refrigerator, and the only part of his friend that was usable was his right arm. So that's what they put on his left side. So he had two right arms, and one was black.

That is amazing. Do you suppose that because he's an infidel he has a right hand on his left arm? Or the fact that he had a right hand on his left arm made him an infidel? Added: if that left arm was black I would believe that was Bill the Galactic Hero.

Coleslaw, in my opinion, consists of thinly sliced or chopped cabbage. I have received coleslaw in some restaurants that has the texture of potted meat. I believe the people that made that, instead of chopping or slicing the cabbage, ran it through a mincer. Has the flavor of coleslaw and the texture of applesauce. I think that's the apparatus he's referring to.

I did like that very precise charging of the powder. I saw a similar video within the last couple of months. They had one guy with a red sharpie, and he was drawing a red line around the case mouth of the loaded round. Looked like there was sealant on the cartridge.

I like that one myself. Although he was definitely miscast. In the movie he was Trooper Thornton, a heavyweight. In the short story they based the movie on Tiger Thorn was a bantamweight. And he still beat the hell out of the brother. They should have cast Audie Murphy.

I am 69 12-month years old. That would be 83 of your metric 10-month years. Only being 68, you have a ways to go.

I didn't. I've been confused about that ever since I saw it. Cop says who are you. Tim says he's Santa Claus. He's Sinter Klaus. He's Kris Kringle. He's Father Christmas. He's Pere Noel. He's Topo Gigio. All of the others are names for Santa Claus all over the world. But Topo Gigio??? Santa in Italy is Babbo Natale. Made absolutely no sense to me.

That doesn't make any sense. Their yards - meters - are not the same length as our yards. Their miles - kilometers - are not the same distances as our miles. So why would their 10 month years be the same length as our 12 month years? Next you'll be telling me that their 20-hour day is the same length is our 24-hour day.

Since they do metric, does that mean there's only 10 months in an Australian year? So 68 Australian years would be --- 680÷12 --- 56 2/3 real years?

And tuna salad and shrimp salad.

Big Jim McClain. Wasn't really a cop though. I think he was FBI. Him and Marshall Dillon were over there after communists.

Generally John Wayne played a cowboy. If he wasn't a cowboy, he was usually in the military. And there were a few where he was neither one. But he made - to the best of my recollection - two cop movies. Brannigan, and McQ. Which of those two did you prefer? Or did he make another cop movie that I can't remember? I know he played law enforcement in several westerns but I'm talking about - I started to say modern times but those movies are both around 40 years old so I don't know if that would be considered modern.
