  2. And it's a "picher". In Georgia, a traffic light is a "red light".
  3. Back in my bar hopping days, I knew a guy who decided that he wanted his brown hat to be black. He figured, well it's fur. What's fur? Hair. He used black hair dye on it. It turned out pretty well.
  4. Oh these weren't truncated cone, they looked like an ice cream cone. Maybe they were a 1970s attempt to help feeding problems in old WWII guns. Looking very much like these, which surprisingly ARE 120 gr. Lyman Bullet Mold 9mm/.38 120gr. But these still don't look like the bullets Abby was looking at.
  5. I wondered the same thing when I saw it. I've never heard of a 120 grain bullet in a 9mm, lead, yes, but not 120 gr. When I was a kid, I knew a guy that loaded a conical lead bullet in 9mm, but not a round nose like Abby was looking at.
  6. Should say "We'll correct you if you're ON the Right.
  7. It doesn't matter. Blame it on America and tax American's, (only the ones that work), accordingly.
  8. 11. Iced tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when you're two. We do like a little tea with our sugar. It is referred to as the Wine of the South. Also known as Sweetea, all one word.
  9. Dollar to a dog biscuit says you have to do it on a smartphone app.
  10. A badge with the same number is on a website about Railroad police badges. https://www.therailroadpolice.com/badges-t-z
  11. Good looking in part because she has no tattoos or piercings. I know that I'm an Old Curmudgeon, but I HIGHLY dislike tattoos on women, and most of them on men. Tattoos on an otherwise attractive woman will make me look away. Same with piercings anywhere except the ears, and there too if there more than one or two.
  12. Frys was bought by Krogers, and as Tex Wilson said, is still here in Az. Their "house" brand is Krogers.
  13. Here's a fun one: About 20 years ago, the state of Arizona added a tax to cigarettes to pay for a "Stop smoking PSA" program. It was so successful that they couldn't make enough on the tax to keep the program going.
  14. If you see this type of violence, call the Food Abuse Hotline at 1-800-OIC-U812.
  15. These guy might have something: https://www.tombstonegrips.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=TGG&Category_Code=SW
  16. Don't have any of 'em. Don't miss them either from what I hear about 'em.
  17. The OV-10 was a badass airplane, but not quite as much as that video makes it out to be. The rear mounted M197 shown was tried, but never adopted. There was a plan back in the late 80s called the D-SLEP plan. The D was the version of the OV-10 that was the latest upgrade, having advanced electronics in the nose that included RADAR and FLIR systems. It looked like R2D2's head mounted upside down. Part of the plan was to extend the wingtip several feet and mount Sidewinder rails on them. While the OV-10A had provisions for Sidewinders on the wing stations, they were replaced by regular bomb racks on the D model. But the part that had most people, especially the pilots, was to mount a turret from a Cobra helicopter under the fuselage that would be controlled with the FLIR system. Unfortunately, this never came about. The Marine Corps was all about Fast Movers, (jet aircraft), and helicopters, so the OV-10 was treated like a redheaded stepchild. I'm pretty sure that that attitude is what lead to the OV-10's removal from service. The red circle shows the FLIR on the nose. This shows how the OV-10D SLEP would look.
  18. Here's one for you. When I was stationed in Massachusetts, During the morning commute, about 2 out of 3 drivers had a newspaper across their steering wheel. On the Interstate!
