    Glaring Film Gaffs! (Or: The Dry Look in 1917?)

    just watched another one, where the wagon's driver is shot off or jumps to the horses but the reins run up into a hole in the wagon or stagecoach that should not be there, because that is where the real teamster is driving the team....

    NYPD going back to super strict 8- point hat uniform policy

    one of the reasons the LAPD HAD a great reputation was the look of the men and women in uniform. [remember they still have less personnel covering a greater area than any other major city police force] They have had issues of late, however a well dresses cop is never a bad thing. it is a...

    Airborne Leather

    if you can google map the address, you will see a couple of LARGE businesses and close by what looks like single family homes. They are near an airport so it is possible that it is a fixed base operator expanding his business. I would be concerned mainly because of the costs Dan

    Golden Era Medical Care

    many things we treat now would have been fatal years ago. During the civil war more men died from disease than bullet wounds. Of those shot 50% died, of the survivors 50% had an amputation. As the wars continued field medicine improved and so did the survival rate of the troops. MANY of...

    what if you could travel back in time but could never return?

    let's see, cannot return and I presume I go back at the current age I am. Now if I can also drop years that would be different. So I would study the WSJ for a time then choose wisely my time frame, buy the best moving stock sell at the perfect time then quit my job and live happily ever...
