I used two 2x6s. Much cheaper than one 2x12.

Number 3 is the frame size. It is the 44 caliber frame. Whether the gun is a 44 or 45 is irrelevant. The American is a number 3. The Russian is a number 3. The Schofield is a number 3. And the 1881 double action is a number 3.

It seems to me that they were doing that a little fast. It's a march. But if you tried to stay in step with that you would have been running. Just my opinion of course.

Probably because the actor doing the fingerprinting doesn't know what he's doing. I just sat here and counted it up, and I believe I have been fingerprinted 13 times. The hardest thing about it was to let the man control my hand. Don't help him. But in none of those did they push hard on my hand.

Pothole in Texas.

I thought I could stand it. Even when he started talking about the Smith & Wesson Model 3. First, there is not and never has been a Smith & Wesson Model 3. It's a number three. The lowest model number Smith and Wesson has ever had is the Model 10. People insist on calling the number three the Model 3, but they are wrong. But then when he explained that the number four most popular revolver in the old west was the 1873 lever action rifle - I just gave up.

Is that anything like 420?

The last one that I can watch before Instagram locked me out was the English guy who had been living in Germany for 10 years with speaking English. The way Germans do. Funny.

I just experimented, and cube Roots works the same way. Just has one more step. 27. We will guess that the cube root of 27 is 2 27 / 2 / 2 =6.75 (because this is a cube root we have to do things three times, so we divide by the Guess twice, add the guess twice, and then divide by 3) 6.75 + 2 + 2 = 10.75, / 3 equals 3.5888 New guess 3.58 27 / 3.58 / 3.58 =2.106 plus 3.58 3.58 =9.266 divided by 3 equals 3.088 new guess 3.1 27 / 3.1 / 3.1 =2.809 + 3.1 + 3.1 =9.009 / 3 = 3.003 New guess is three 27 / 3 / 3 = 3 + 3 + 3 = 9 / 3 = 3 Cube root of 27 is 3

Guess. Divide by the Guess, add the guess, and divide by two. This gives you a new guess. Example 25. We will guess the square root is 4 25 / 4 = 6.25, plus four equals 10.25 / 2 = 5.125. 5.125 is the new guess 25 / 5.125 equals 4.87, plus 5.125 equals 10.003, divided by 2 equals 5.0015. New guess is five 25 / 5 = 5 + 5 = 10 / 2 = 5 Answer is five

One of the many things I find interesting. In Europe, all grain was called corn. When people spoke of corn it was mostly wheat they were talking about, but corn was also used for rye and millet and oats. Any stalk with a seatSEED head on the top of it, basically. So when the Europeans arrived in North America, they found that the Indians were growing this grain. So naturally they called it corn. Now here in America, the only grain we call corn is maize. While in Europe that's about the only grain that is not corn.

I just tried that. It's even slower. Part of the reason is because I'm reading 9s as 6s, so I have to really concentrate. And then the numbers are on the wrong side of the cards. But once I've got a lock on this, I will try it with the top oriented to the right instead of the left. My brain will either get trained, or implode. One or t'other. It's like writing left-handed. I can write left-handed, but it's a whole lot slower. My right hand knows how to make the letters that I'm telling it to make. But I have to tell my left hand how to form them. Unless I do a DaVinci thing, and write backwards with my left hand. That's fairly easy. My left hand does not know quite as well how to form the letters, so my handwriting is sloppier. But it is legible. If you hold it up to a mirror. Or if you have trained your brain to read backwards. I have, but only with my handwriting.

I just made an interesting discovery. I play solitaire on my phone. And when I'm winning a game, I'm just flying along. When the game between 2 and 4 minutes. But I just discovered that while my phone has sideways viewing ability, so I can turn it on its side and still see what I'm looking at, this solitaire game won't rotate. And it takes a whole lot longer to play this way. Because the cards aren't oriented the way my mind wants to see them. And I have to retrain my brain. When I first tried this it took close to 10 minutes. The second game also started off quite slow, but about halfway through I was moving the cards almost as fast as I would if they were oriented correctly. My brain was making the connection. I'm going to give it a couple of days before I try that again, and see if I can still do it quickly with them sideways.

When I started band, the local music shop would rent you an instrument for 3 months. That way if the kid gave up on it, Mom and Daddy weren't out all that money. My rental was a LeBlanc. Then when they decided I was actually going to stay with it, they bought me a Conn. Still a decent horn, but not quite on the same level.
