@Jolly Really neat story. Read a book about it once. As @Aqua-Letifer says, it does put perspective on our "troubles" today.

@Copper Very neat!! Thanks!! Did they do the correction of color or is that natural?

He may not be right but it reminds me of how bad analysis is these days when the stuff we read is so many levels down from this.

Let’s just make stuff up as we go along to get the desired outcome.

Got a pressure canner? You can can a lot of it, too.

@jon-nyc said in Apple off 6+%: If only he had chosen the i5 That’s what Horace said.

I refuse to believe an Irish comedian would say that about Mr. Trump.

@Rich said in The weirdest part of Luke’s virtual school schedule?: L's dad, I guess this will be the modern times 'snow day'. Unfortunately, I think Chris will still make me come to work if Finley’s school computers are hacked...

@jon-nyc said in Just 1: @Friday said in Just 1: So Jon, was your one number 17? I’ve been skydiving a few times. No tattoos though. Damn! My number is 5.

If coronaviruses have existed for a long time and this one looks a lot like other viruses, why would one think Covid 19 hitched a ride on meteorite landing Oct 11,2019? Did the other coronaviruses come from a much earlier meteorite?

@brenda said in We really gotta get out of here: Home renovation and restoration shows for us. Our fair share of those, too.

@Rainman said in 13 Years Ago Today: Army Ranger Captain Drew Jensen My belated condolences, sorry for your loss.

@jon-nyc said in Gotta love Florida man....: I think the site is satirical? What’s a matta , you couldn’t find anything you didn’t do?

@Doctor-Phibes said in Iraq consensus?: I (now) also think that Bush was talked into it by a couple of horrible old men who should never have been brought back into the US government. Actually Cheney wanted to replace Sadaam with another Sunni strongman that was more amenable to us and our allies. That probably would have resulted in a lot less chaos and disorder and might have left Iraq a decent counterweight to Iran. But it wouldn’t have been a good look.

@Mik said in Webhost: Wordpress is kind of outdated. You might want to look around for something a bit more flexible and easier. I maintain a Wordpress site now and while in its day it was quite good, I think that day has passed. That's not true. Wordpress is still great for companies—but no, it's very bad for DIY. My vote is Squarespace.

@Jolly said in Never forget...: the best you've got. Right. My understanding of what both groups do would lead me to guess they or the Deltas would be who you send. But they had some options; JSOC is kinda big. Also, they're the best at what they specifically do. Like I said, if you want the best of the best for recon work, you don't ask Delta Force. That's within the 75th. Different unit, just as "elite."
