“Who was that?”
“Must be a king or something.”
“How do you know?”
“He hasn’t got s**t all over ‘im.”

Just curious, why would you open something like that? You’ve just validated their contact info for you and show a preference for gun-related spam, which will be shared across the internet.

About 10 or more years ago I fired 2 rounds of .454 Casull through a revolver. No desire to do that again, much less a .500.

Depends on the vehicle. A Hummer EV battery weighs 3,000 lbs of the vehicle’s 9,000 lb curb weight, for 30%.

In my 40+ years of living in the Kansas City area, I've run across a number of people who claim to have a personal connection by birth or association to Jesse James, or "reliable" knowledge that he didn't die in St. Joseph, MO.
I also heard Elvis was seen in my neighborhood recently...

Was living and working in NYC at the time. Got to watch the first ever Tall Ships parade sail down the Hudson River. Despite large crowds under and on top of streets, everyone was in a good mood and behaved themselves that day.

Here's are shots of part of the river at various times during the same hunt:
That third pic looks like old Aunt Edna being escorted home from the party again. 🤣

And there was Miss Julie who made it back to England. Miraculously, only the bombardier was lost. I can’t find the account, but the writer said the howling and shrieking of the torn metal could heard from miles ahead of its landing.

Looks like dolphins are competing with Aussie “drop bears”. Glad this worked out for all involved. I love to hear these blokes explain it to the boat insurer.

I’m wondering if the state is paying a subsidy to make up the difference for the uninsured.

The F-8 Crusader introduced in 1957 is the last fighter to have an internal gun.
F-18, F-15, F-22 and others have Vulcan cannons. I believe the F4 was the last fighter to not have an internal gun.

Okay, it is very easy to remove on the Rossis and it looks like it is the same on the Heritage. Remove the bolt, drive the pin out, then you can lift the safety out [watch the spring]. The hole remaining is easily filled with a cut down .25 ACP case.
Or a nice looking plug sold at www.stevesgunz.com

He had a laugh that could be genuinely humorous and sinister at the same time.

Good one.
Although not a true “trail cam” photo, this is from my son’s attic a few days ago. Hoping he’s trapped by now. Appears this acrobatic little bugger was getting into hole at the base of the chimney on the second story roof!

Slim,
Partially correct. The YB-49 exhibited a measure of adverse yaw. The amount of adverse yaw only affected the bombing accuracy with dumb iron bombs. One must remember pinpoint accuracy is not a requirement with Nukes. Close Counts 🤪
Sorta kinda/yes and no. The Nagasaki bombing was “less” effective than Hiroshima because it was off target and terrain shielded industries they intended to destroy. Splitting hairs I know, but that’s the way it was judged at the time.
🤓 -
The thing I read about the YB-49 is that the original piston engine fairings are what gave it some measure of lateral stability, but keeping the engines cool was a major problem. They switched to the then-new turbojets, but lateral stability was worse. Even the addition of top and bottom vertical stabilizers couldn’t solve the problem, making its role as a stable bombing platform untenable with that era’s technology.

Not yet. It takes 28+ hours to reach the space station. According to what I read, they could depart Wednesday
