    As is often the case in here, I had to look up 'micrometeorite'.

    You’d think by now you’d have it memorized.

      Choot 'em:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne_Bachmeier

      "On 6 March 1981, the third day of the trial, Marianne Bachmeier smuggled a Beretta 70 into the courtroom of Lübeck District Court and shot the confessed killer of her daughter, Klaus Grabowski, in the back. She aimed the gun at Grabowski's back and pulled the trigger eight times. Seven of the shots hit him, and the 35-year-old defendant was killed almost instantly... Four months after the opening of proceedings she was convicted on 2 March 1983 by the Circuit Court Chamber of the District Court Lübeck for manslaughter and sentenced for unlawful possession of a firearm to six years in prison but was later released after serving three years"

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Never heard that story. But the video must be a reenactment. Even with the realistic looking reaction of the background extras.

        Education is extremely important.

              It’s fascinating that in the 1920s a man who was going to walk out on beams on an impossibly high skyscraper would wear a tie and dress shoes.

              Man we suck compared to that generation.

                        Hmm, I will have to think about that. I read somewhere that there are now more people alive than ever have died.

                        For example
