Oh my God, we have corrupted him. He said beets, not beetroots. They are liable to kick him out of Oz.

You got bread, you got beetroot, then I think you got bacon, then something yellow, then an egg, then finally the steak, lettuce and then more bread. What's the yellow thing between the bacon and the egg? I would have guessed lettuce except that there is lettuce under the steak and it is green.

Abso-dam-lutely. If I have to develop a taste for it, obviously it doesn't taste good. As a teenager I also drank beer because everybody drank beer and I would "develope a taste for it". But I didn't so I stopped.

THIS is a backpack shotgun. Will not be available here because - a) it is NFA, and b) it was (they made it for about 15 years but it's been discontinued) made in Russia and therefore I think it is unimportable. Tula. Folding bolt action 20 gauge shotgun. Designed from the get-go to carry in your backpack when camping. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOZ-106 Wow. The link could not be embedded?? Well, hell. I guess you would have to cut and paste the url. Folding stock, 14 inch barrel, two round detachable box magazine, comes with two magazines. Under folder.

And some people just don't like the taste. My in-laws bought some Maine lobster one time. I have had people tell me that the reason it had the texture of rubber is because they overcooked it. Maybe so. But it tasted like shrimp. I like shrimp, but I can get shrimp for a whole lot less money than that lobster cost. So I have no intention of ever buying lobster. When I was a young teenager my father got from somebody a jar of caviar. To me it tasted exactly like sardines. With sardines at 49 cents a can and caviar at $10 a jar I saw no sense in eating caviar.

I'm not really sure why, but that video made me think of this one.

At first I was shocked about the pickles. But then I realized it was a bacon cheeseburger without the bread, so why not have pickles.

Boy howdy, I would sure love to be considered to be the reincarnation of a character in a video game.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense. Been a while since I shot a match, but we used to use pieces of 1-inch dowel about a foot or so long, painted red, with a piece of string attached to one end. Stick of dynamite.

Saw this video clip. Thought it was a SASS match, I noticed the guys at the top of the screen with the plastic pistols in their pockets. But they say he might be the reincarnation of Arthur Morgan. Who the heck was Arthur Morgan?

Many years ago I was reading a novel. This guy with a traveling carnival had a boxing kangaroo. He would invite people to come up out of the audience and fight the kangaroo and they always lost. One day the person slipped one through the roo's defense, and hit him in the face. The roo quit fighting and went over in the corner and crouched down. His owner was pissed. Said he was worthless now. He would fight, as long as he never got hit. But if he ever got hit he would never fight again. Said that's the way it worked in Oz. Roos would fight each other to establish dominance so they could get the girls. And whoever lost the fight would never fight again. All it took was one punch in the face and they were done. I don't know if that's true or not. I have no idea. But judging by this little video clip, it might be true. That roo don't look like he wants to continue the battle. When I first saw this I thought the roo was killing the dog, and the dog's head and neck was covered with blood. But the more I watch it the more I think that's a red bandana.

To do the 20 miles? It was a race. Whoever got there first. There were four cars. One was steam powered and the other two were propane powered. Both of the propane powered cars did not make the 20 miles, because (the book said) propane burns much hotter than gasoline and they did not take that into account when they converted the cars. Both cars overheated. And it looked like the steam car was going to win but he had to play like the tortoise and the hare. Waited until the last second, while the electric car - actually coasting downhill now because the batteries were all dead dead dead - and when he romped on it to make that quick rush across the finish line and beat it, he blew the packing out of his boiler. Let's hear it for Dave White And The Electric Wonder Car!!!

I absolutely could be wrong, but that bill looks like a goose, not a duck.

They started with a little bitty Renault, and then stripped as much weight away from it as they could. It was a "proof of concept" college thing, only had to go 20 miles. That was one of the problems they had. The guy thought that they should have three sets of batteries. When the first one went dead, put it on the charger and run on the second, and when the second went dead hook it into the charger while continuing to charge the first and by the time the third set was dead the first one should be back up. But they didn't have the room and they didn't have the ability for the extra weight.

I was out getting the mail one day. The lady from across the street - a transplant from Boston - asked me if she should be doing something special because of the hurricane. What she should do to get ready. I replied that I had not heard there was a hurricane coming. How big? She told me it was a category 3. I told her not to worry about it. I bring the garbage can inside when it's a cat 4. Make sure the truck is full of gas. But a 3??? Northerners. Remember how that cat 2 shut down the state of New York? The Storm of the Century!!!

It would not cause issues with lead because lead is soft. They went with copper jacketing because copper is harder than lead. If this bullet is copper plated - like a Rainier or a Berry - then the copper coating is so thin it would not matter. But he said it is jacketed, and he asked for opinion. I gave mine. I even gave my reason for mine. He absolutely can ignore my opinion. I ignore people's opinions all the time.

If you were attempting to build an electric car, and you were going to use standard 12-volt lead acid batteries, would it make more sense to get regular car batteries, or deep cycle marine batteries? I'm reading a novel. This is fiction. This is all made up. I am not building an electric car. The way the book reads they're just buying car batteries. It just seems to me that deep cycle marine batteries would be a better choice. This is a - what do they call that - dual power(?) car. The car will run on electricity from the storage batteries. They will also have a four-horse four-cycle gasoline engine hooked up to a charger. When battery A is run down they switch over to battery B, and put battery A on the charger. That just seems to me that the deep cycle would be a better choice. Car batteries, as I understand it, are not designed to run them all the way down before you charge them back up.
