Was 71 today, suppose to hit 75 tomorrow! I'll think of you tomorrow Worf, while wearing my short sleeve shirt. ;) If it makes you feel any better, I will be shoveling out tomorrow, need to get some more dirt out of the basement.
Americans Underground: Secret City of WWI. Nice documentary, great to see names put to actual soldiers, and the images they carved in stone. Hard to believe, Native Americans were still not recognized in WWI, even though they fought in all our wars!
Pietta of Italy makes a 9 shot .44 and 20 gauge center shot. The originals were .42 and .63 shotgun barrel. There are several non firing replicas around. every time a almost pull the trigger, (pun intended) and buy one, I think what a pain they must be to clean!
It's a double edge sword for me. Where I live right now, I would have been lucky to get $130,000 a couple of years ago, now houses around me are hitting the mid 200 hundreds! Great when I go to sell, in the next couple of months, it will pay for most of my Victorian! But, I do feel sorry for...

I think it will be faster to name what part of my body doesn't have a scar on it! Let's see, hm, no wait, wait, there's got's to be some patch of meat without one. :(
The Alamo was a 13 day siege. The final battle did take place at night. At 10pm Santa Anna had his artillery cease fire, as he suspected, the people in side the Alamo would be exhausted and fall a sleep. It worked, and the sentries outside were killed in their sleep. Unfortunately for the...
I lied when I said I don't like Mustangs! I would love to own an early Alison powered Mustang or A-36 Apache/Invader. The British MKI photo recon variants were the First Mustangs to fly over Germany. For civilian use, the Allison is a much better engine then the Merlin, faster down on the deck...
