Rooster Cogburn was a proud gentlemen of the… Southern persuasion. Maybe a bit gone to seed with age and hard living. But he would no more name a cat General Sherman than I would name one General Miley.
Unless it was like some really Ghey-assed cat.
And General Sherman is not. If he had opposed thumbs, he would burn Atlanta. Not that any of us would stop him these days.
Well, time to get up and start buttering the corn dodgers!!

Definitely south of the water tower now and moving latitudes fast. Only comes up after I have made ready to leave the house.

The video is a little long but worth watching. The best part is when some idiot actually applies for a job as a hit man.
I dug through them yesterday, ready for a photo bomb.
The Opel started life as a total rust bucket, if you opened both doors you had to put a jack in the center of the car to lift it back up, it would not close. Total POS.
It started life as an ITB car, and ended up as an FP car. It was really fun, and the thing sounds so good. Chevy 265 pistons fit very nice, so it is basically half of that and it sounds like it, cam in head and it is a very deep rumble, a sound that is that is coming out of that car.
The 1st gen MR2 was my first race car and it was also an ITA car. Fun car, a real monster in the rain, I took an over all in the rain in that car. Puts power down very well, lift in a turn and it will bite you hard.
944 my wife killed cones with, just tossed that in for giggles.
T-shirt, no gloves and looks like open face helmet. When I was doing it you are head to toe covered, basically long underwear, the suit, gloves, head sock, you sweated like a fucking pig. I would hydrate for the two weeks before the race, I know it was going to be bad.
Then I got a cool shirt. What a life changing invention.
For those that don't know, it is basically a t-shirt with a tube that runs all around your back and chest, you have a cooler filled with ice water and a little pump to move it through the shirt. I was already running and getting hot, I flipped the switch and it felt like someone poured cold water all over me. Thinking I had a leak I turned it off.......then I said screw it and turned it back on again. There was no leak it just felt like it.
I was amazed at how much more "fresh" my mind was after I got that gizmo, it was fantastic.
Those cars get very hot.
I drove a friends Kawasaki Ninja H2 over the weekend. A Supercharged Crotch-Rocket.
I’ve owned some fast bikes , driven a NHRA Super Stock Vette capable of upper 9.0 second , 140 mph 1/4 mile passes. ALL seem slow in comparison.
I went from 60 mph to 150 mph instantly , even shifting at lower RPM’s. NEVER have had the front tire lift going 120 mph !! Cleaned out my shorts , gave it back to my friend , fucking Insane to think of hitting 200+ mph
I made a few passes in a 6-second 200-mph Fuel Altered back in the day.I drove a friends Kawasaki Ninja H2 over the weekend. A Supercharged Crotch-Rocket.

I made a single low 8-second pass on a Funny Bike, and it made me weak in the knees when I got off.
The bike went faster. I just lacked the intestinal fortitude to do it!
I'll keep my roll cage surroundings thank you very much. LOL
Just a PSA for all you folks, especially in Northern New England.
Keep your cars locked and your windows rolled up. Otherwise people will break into your car and leave zucchini.

A friend of mine has an Alcohol Altered that’s scary ! He has a pic of Walter Cronkite painted on the doors , he named her “ Altered Walter”
I‘m way to old to be going 150+ often , but it was a rush
Also applies to Utah and Idaho. Especially at church
That depends on how many times you wrap it... besides, people who have det cord also tend to have C4....
(though I’ll admit the original tree is way too thick for anything but a 250lb’er)

I'm not expert on chopping down trees or explosives but the videos are very interesting.
Long video...
Bonus educational video:
Not that I wouldn’t want to, but somehow drilling 4 holes in an 8” tree, packing with explosives, then bucking up logs with a chainsaw and moving them with excavators doesn’t seem like a super efficient way of clearing a landing zone. Again, fun , but the practically vs just tipping them over with the excavator…
Oh yes it would! You just have to wrap it enough times. Primacord was used in VN and Borneo to clear huge trees to make LZ’s.
Cheers, Sirhr
A now passed EOD bud said he was called out to drop a tree outside a firebase. Took a look, fair sized, wrapped what he thought was sufficient detcord, added a cap and time fuze and pulled the M60. Surprised it didn't fall, he walked over to inspect. Said it did little damage and he was later told it was an ironwood tree.
DISCLAIMER: I was not there and he told many stories that began, "This ain't no shit..."
Wife left the driver door open when she went to fill up her Durango with gas at the local station.
Small town, pop 150
When she went to get back in, had a yellow lab as a passenger
Had to buy a stick of jerky to get him out
