Profitable and prophetable. One leads to the other.

Folks at the Munich Conference in 1938 and other isolationists felt similarly. Look how that turned out.

Maybe you can get Marshal Mo Hare to find one for you. Apparently the guy that makes them lives in Russia.

There’s some cool stuff in there, but the post is from 2009.

That beer looks like it might be a Sierra Nevada, if it is he has good taste in beer at least
That’s not beer. It’s a child water bottle. Seriously.

I’m well acquainted with them. A skill scoffed at originally, but valued many years later when refinishing the floors of my house.

X2, She is leaning away from the gun, no magazine, finger on the trigger with her instructor's hand near the muzzle, that is genuine ignorance from both of them.
Could be. Perhaps it’s simpler than that, and the pic was just posed for the gag.

Reckon she's left handed with a right master eye? I watched a right-handed boy with a left master eye shooting a 22 rifle almost the same way.
If you hand a long gun to someone who’s never held one before, they rarely know where their hands go and which eye to use. I’ve seen that a lot with young scouts.

Excellent movie. Natalie Portman was awesome at a very early age.

Back then I was living in NYC on $12,000/yr. That wasn’t much, but it wasn’t a struggle either. It’s all relative.

They would go shopping together, and occasionally go out to lunch. The 3 of us would go square dancing together. My ex and I also danced the rounds between tips. When I needed a break the two of them would dance the tip with my ex as the left hand (man's) part.
My ex and her husband would on a somewhat regular basis would treat us to dinner out.
Ummm, yeah…you live in a galaxy far, far away from mine.
Seriously, I’m happy for you.

One year, the Year of the Perfect Tree, we got to the tree farm in two vehicles, I got there first in my pickup, my wife drove my ex and arrived about 2 minutes later. She walked up to me and said, "I found the perfect tree!" Mind, we hadn't even explored the trees, she saw it as she drove up. She stood by it as I wandered to look over the others. But she had "The Perfect Tree!" And indeed it was. About 10 feet, full, very symmetrical, gorgeous. So we bought it. Got it home, managed to get it into the stand. We always let a tree "relax" a day before decorating it, Half an hour later it fell over. Got it back up, and it fell over again. Put an eye-screw into the wall to tie it off. It fell over.
When it fell over at 0300, I got a quarter sheet of plywood, mounted the stand on it with carriage bolts, put 3 cinderblocks on it. Tree didn't fall over again.
But LORDY! was that tree gorgeous!I’m still stuck on the idea your wife and ex-wife alone in a car. I can’t wrap my head around that scenario in my world as a fatality would have occurred.

Many cars have steel lug nuts with a decorative cap over the steel. After several years corrosion forms between the underlying steel nut and the decorative cap. This causes the cap to swell so that a lug wrench will no longer fit.
Happened to my late wife's mini van. Fortunately the tire dealer had a set of special sockets just to remove these cheap chinese abominations. Replaced them with an all steel nut.
I just keep 18 and 19mm sockets handy at home for my Jeep. 19mm with the cap, 18 without. For traveling, a cap that fell off makes a dandy shim to keep with the wrench that came with the car.

We were living on the Marine air station at Iwakuni in May of 1959. On May Day that year, a bunch of commies rioted at the base entrance, so the base fire department turned the hoses on them. Thus ended the riot. Seems we could resurrect that tactic for some of today’s antics.

That's a nice looking car for the era. I wonder how many could afford to buy one?
