    Roller Derby Cards

    For a short time in the early 70s I really liked Roller Derby. Can't quite put my finger on the reason why! :D

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Sun Records. Not the best, but not the worst. I noticed Elvis riding a Royal Enfield Bullet made in Chennai India! Will watch another episode and see.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Let me settle this once and for all, you all have accents that are unintelligible to me! Now if you will excuse me, there is a grizzly bar up near Cripple Crick that is just hankering for a tussle!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Weapons Hunter. Still not a very good show! It was a real treat however, to see the PV-2D Harpoon, with drop tanks and rockets. Wish the one I flew was that nice!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Living With Lincoln. Five generations of some really obscure people that every one should know. They amassed the largest collection of original Lincoln artifacts in the world and it literally killed two of them! If you have ever seen a photo of Lincoln, a penny, five dollar bill, Lincoln...

    The new cult of men that see everything in the media as anti male. It's still a mans world, for god's sake, put on your Big Boy Pants and grab some of the gusto!

    1947 USAF - service cap info

    I know that they were still issuing OD Ike jackets and trousers to the young Air Force recruits as late as 1958. My neighbor still has his, and it was exactly the same as issued to my Father in WWII. After he made it through boot, he then got his blues.

    Show us your Guns!

    I agree! I have personally witnessed twice, one a 30-06 the other a 30-30, going clean through the deer. In both cases, the guys were bad shots, so we had to fallow a non existent blood trail! If they had been using my original slow velocity Winchester 86 in 45-70, we would have had a trail as...

    Hmm, hot pants, whips and chains, for the life of me, I can't figure out why teen age boys liked her? ;)

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Star Trek: Errand Of Mercy. Still my hands down favorite of all the different Star Trek's! "Yes, please leave us. The mere presence of beings like yourselves is intensely painful to us."

    When you get free HBO and decide to record one movie, only to find the satellite signal was messed up. Only saving grace, I discovered it in the first five minutes instead of the last five!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Wanted Dead Or Alive. Hollywood sure didn't care about accuracy in the 50s! It was suppose to be in the 1880s, yet the Mare's Leg was a cut down Winchester 1892. If that wasn't bad enough, he carried giant 45-70 cartridges, for a gun that at best could handle 44-40 bullets! Never let the truth...

    New Gold Train! 50 Focke-Wulfs under Turkish airport?

    They did discovered a stash of WWI Renault Ft-17 tanks in Afghanistan, which got there, via Poland! Talk about truth being stranger then fiction. https://wwiiafterwwii.wordpress.com/2015/06/01/wwii-gear-in-afghan-use-part-iii-tanks-and-artillery/

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    I had a friend years ago we called "tiny!" You can probably imagine his real size. He would get off the wing of our Navy SNJ-5 and the shock on the landing gear would uncompres at least four inches. It didn't even notice my 165lbs. As you might also have guessed, he was the nicest most gentle...

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    There is a lot of argument on when the saying first appeared as you can see. All of them are great stories regardless of truth! https://www.theguardian.com/notesandqueries/query/0,,-5465,00.html

    New Barnstormer...

    Darn you Worf! I have been looking for a new motorcycle jacket, one that would stand out in the crowed, this comes mighty close. I also like their Blizzard, with the waistcoat built in. If it was done like a prewar RAF Irvin with a honey colored sheepskin color, well maybe too nice for me...
