Damocanglang 大漠苍狼 (Wolf Of The High Desert)

Epic Chinese western / neo-western (2016) 34 chapters/episodes.

Set in Lower Mongolia and Xinjiang Province in 1932 in the wake of the first Japanese invasion of northeast China. An officer of the Shanghai Police was court-martialed and terminated after he was found to have disobeyed orders to "hold and stay" when he single-handedly rushed in to save a woman from being raped by armed thugs, killing 2 of the thugs. (Shadows of Parkland and Uvalde there). Finding himself unemployed, drinking heavily, and harboring a new misanthropy and disillusionment with the world, he headed out far west to the Xinjiang and western Mongolian frontier to get away from all of the bullshit. There, he found employment as the captain of the corporate security force of a major Chinese oil company opening wide scale drilling and shale operations in the region. But trouble caught up with him there as well but at this point, he had stopped taking shit from anybody. From a small but capable corporate security force rose a new regional defense frontier ranger regiment taking on both insidious Japanese agents and hired guns from corrupt government entities back in Beijing who are trying to profit off of the petroleum rich region by letting Japanese wartime investors get a free reign of the assets of the region and one company that is standing up against all of them for the sake of protecting what belongs to China.

Its the epic tale of John Lambo
 
Work around sick patients all the time and never had COVID........

Doc
I got the rona for the second time when I was TDY out to Commiefornia; one of the CW2s was patient zero, I was patient 1, it spread through a bunch of our team. CW2 fully vaxxed and boosted, I'm still a pure blood, not sure about everyone else that got it; I know patient 4 was fully vaxxed and boosted for certain...he was TDY here for a network exercise and went home early because he had a booster scheduled back home.

Check out that enclosed canopy.
Nothing says performance like a dual plug dual distributor HEMI.
Just imagine you sitting there in the pit adjusting the points on that baby.
How much of a gap do you have to give them points, a full thickness of a thumbnail?
How much dwelltime before it's just right?
How much of a lead would you need to give that timing?
They're probably magnetos.

One of the BEST opening sequences and musical scores for a classic western can be found in Larry McMurtry's Streets Of Laredo (1995). The final sequel to Larry McMurtry's "Texas" trilogy, starting from Dead Man's Walk, to Lonesome Dove, and finally to Streets Of Laredo and the dawn of a new world...

Old fashioned Texas Ranger Captain Woodrow F. Call had never settled for anything less than getting the job done. Having served as a Ranger in the most harrowing years when repeating rifles and pistols were but an imaginary fancy and every farmer and rancher tended to their fields dreading the moment a Comanche arrow would appear from thin air and fatally pierce their backs, Captain Call suddenly found himself thrust into a new and very different world. Gone were the buckskin clad fur traders who made their living riding their whole lives through vast stretches of hostile emptiness. Instead, it was now a world where telegraphs and telephones made it possible to talk to people across the country instantaneously. And new buildings were lit by curious contraptions which were fixed to walls by wires, and can be ignited with a single turn of a switch, yet seemingly needed no fuel. However, Captain Call realized that even in this new world, many people settled differences by the old ways, and there is nobody more familiar with the old ways than himself...
