A very good friend did that in Minnesota - sandals with no socks too!
No socks, how gauche! At least I wear socks with my flip flops in the winter.

Looks like it's time to break out the winter shorts.

They now ring the bell 30 times to honor Gordon Lightfoot for telling the story that would otherwise be forgotten....

With subs it's the fear of the unknown. You can't see it, which is the point. Look at all of the effort, technology, resources that go into "anti-submarine".
All of those "other" ships weren't there to protect the battlewagon from other battlewagons.

Use a .44 Auto Mag, it removes the fingerprints if used properly!

Probably stealing it for trade bait with the beavers.

He opened up a whole other door that I'm not sure that humanity was ready for.

suppose i just won the magabuks for a billion. that'd be $500M lump sum,and $300M atfter taxes. Now, I have cousins all over this region, I dont bother them, they dont bother me, but I bet they'd come out of the woodwork. I dont think I'd give any of them a sawbuck. Three schools I'd give something significant to. SaSS is not a 401c3 so i wouldn't give them anything. A whole passle of charties would ask for handouts. I cant think of one I'd give to.
One thousand dollars doesn't mean much to someone that has a million....but a dollar means a lot to someone that only has one hundred dollars.
Far as charities, Hospice and local, no kill, animal shelters come to mind.

Pineapple on a wedding cake? A wedding cake is a white cake with white frosting. Pineapple??
I remember pineapple upside down cake. Mama made it a couple times in the 60s. I remember it was good. I also know I haven't had it for 60 years. They still got box cake mixes in the stores though. At least they did about 4 years ago.
Don't ask me, I don't make it...my gal does. I eat it and it's REAL good. I guess it's an old recipe she got from a lady who's now deceased. If I can find the recipe, without my gal finding out, I'll post it in the pinned food section of the Saloon. She keeps her favorite recipes "secret" for some reason.

#1 - Just had cottage cheese and pears a few days ago. Cottage cheese on top of the pears/juice with a little nutmeg on top....YUM. Pears have to be chilled for it to work.
#2 - I always thought it was nasty.
#3 - I still make this on occasion. Quick sandwich that tastes good to me.
#4 - Being from the South, I always liked liver and onions. Like other organ food also.
#5 - Like the bacon and blue cheese but never have like lettuce...no matter what anyone puts on it.
#6 - Never liked anything to do with Spam.
#7 - Seriously? How in the heck did that ever make the list?
#8 - Still make SOS on a regular basis. My gal doesn't like it, oh well, means I get three pieces of toast instead of two!
#9 - My Ambrosia definition and theirs differs greatly.
#10 - Pineapple has no place on anything other that a "wedding cake". My gal has a killer recipe that people love, me too.

As an electrician, I've done that before (in a way), it didn't work out like it did in this video.

I remember seeing Farmers Almanac at my Great Grandparents house. They were farmers in Plant City with a decent piece of land that they farmed various crops, depending upon the time of the year. My Grandfather continued the farming way with a crop in his yard even though he worked as a chemist at Grace Phosphate, now Mosaic. He always had copy of it also. I would peruse it's pages every time I went over there.
Another piece of old Americana quietly goes away. Some call it progress. I don't. Sad day for a land that will only be remembered in lore.

As much as I would love to see the Iowa class battleships roaming the oceans again, it would be damn near impossible to do regardless of how much money the government had available. Building submarines would be a much better choice imo.

Yeah, chump change for him. Inflation doesn't affect people like Brady, underinflation does....slightly.

Now the real motivation becomes apparent. Stoking media attention and public conversation that money couldn't buy.
With that kind of savvy for pumping his investments, he ought to run for congress.
Seems to me that he isn't all that savvy with "pumping" his investments. Look up Tom Brady and FTX. He got ripped to the tune of about 30 million.

Do you carry a firearm for protection?
How about smoke detectors in your house?
If so, have you ever needed either one of them?
Up to you, but I'd ground it if it were me.

Very nice.
I kind of doubt the lightning is very prevalent in Arizona but proper grounding of the pole is very important to protect your property. Consult a licensed electrical contractor if you're unsure of the grounding of the pole.
Just a heads up.

Glad yours worked out good. A few slingers when breaking it in isn't uncommon. I had one, worked great, sold it....but wish I hadn't. I just didn't like the takedown procedure and the proprietary magazines. A 20 round magazine is available, kind dorky looking but it is available.
I can vouch for GunClips.Com. I've ordered from them several times with great results. I never ordered Hi-Point type magazines so I can't vouch for the manufacture of the hi-cap mags listed.

Never cloned a dog, but the next thing - have had dogs , close relatives, from the same pedigreed bloodline. Though not by any means identical, they have been very similar in most respects. I would not take a shelter dog because I like large breeds and there is no way to determine in advance how they will behave or how they have been treated. I would hate to be bitten, or possibly worse, shoot a dog in self defense. People have been killed or maimed by adopted dogs.
People have been killed and maimed by dogs with high AKC pedigrees also.
My best friend I ever had was a cross between a black lab/Doberman that came from the SPCA of Pinellas County, Florida. He was the smartest, most loyal and the most friendly dog I've ever owned or seen. There wasn't a mean bone in his 80+ pound body, unless someone tried attacking myself or my ex. He was my best friend for almost 14 years and the ONLY dog I would ever even consider cloning,

I thought about it all day after reading the story this morning. I came to the same conclusion as Blackwater.

There were a few "ifs and buts" during the seven game course. The ones for Toronto that stick out in my head are....
- The stuck ball as Hardpan mentioned.
- Bonehead moves by both Bichette and Springer. Both of came after late strike calls by the ump and they were caught advancing to second erroneously. Just plain dumb moves caused by habit and not paying attention.
- At least twice during the game seven, Vlad just stood by idly by, not even attempting to pay attention to the first pitch thrown. Inexcusable in any game, let alone the World Series.
- Barger getting caught WAY off 2nd base for a great, heads up, double play. Not paying attention and lackadaisical base running on Barger's part.
There were other instances such as lack of hustle when hitting the ball. Seemed like Gimenez and Barger (except for getting caught off base) were the only ones that gave it their all every time.
Oh well, congrats to the Dodgers. They hung in there and came out on top.
Go Rays in 2026

That place in in Clearwater, Florida. It has/had a wrecked airplane next to that sign. I don't know why they want to hire more gators though.
