You were cleaning the stage. Perfect elevation, perfect wind holds, then all of a sudden you went full retard. What happened?
The sun got in my eyes, the wind picked up, my sling broke, hot brass down the back of my shooting coat, asshole next to me screaming for faster target service, range officer stepped on my foot, and it started to rain all at the same time. :cool:
 
For those of you who dont follow sailing. Alex Thompson is a world class ocean sailor, the kind that goes balls out around the world solo among other things. (he has broken a few boats along the way) He also has done some pretty bad ass stunts for his sponsors (Hugo Boss and MB)

Enjoy



And you think the Cat swing into the lake is bad ass:

Union Hardtack A simple bread that was very tough which led to other nicknames such as “molar breakers” and “tooth dullers.” Many soldiers would break up the hardtack and mix it with water into a mush with molasses as a treat. Other times, they would fry the mush into a very plain pancake-type creation.
Ingredients:
2 cups of flour
½ to ¾ cup of water
1 tablespoon of Crisco or vegetable fat or lard
6 pinches of salt

Mix into a stiff batter and on a lightly floured surface, roll flat with a rolling pin to 1/3 of an inch thickness.
Trim the edges and cut the dough into squares.
Use a fork to poke holes into the squares.
Bake on a lightly greased sheet at 350 degrees for twenty to twenty five minutes or until golden brown.

Johnny Cakes
Simple, easy to make food that could be easily stored and transported.
They were also called “journey cakes” as they could be taken on a long journey
Ingredients:
1 cup cornmeal
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
1 cup water
½ cup milk
Bacon drippings
Combine the cornmeal, salt, and sugar in a bowl.
Boil the water and then add slowly as you stir the dry ingredients.
Add the milk a little at a time to make sure the batter is not too runny.
Heat the bacon grease in a cast iron skillet and drop in the batter by the spoonful.
Brown on both sides and serve while hot.
 
No pictures, but one of the easiest, best tasting treats you can fix for the family. Apple Turnovers.

Start with a package of regular Pillsbury biscuits in the tube. Using a little flour, roll them out into about a 6-7" circle.

Now open a jar of chunky apple sauce and mix in cinnamon and sugar to your taste.
Place about 2 heaping tablespoons (more if you want, but not too much) onto the rolled out biscuit. Roll it over onto itself to make the turnover shape. Fold over the edges around the joined edges. Then use a fork to smash them together to prevent the apple stuffing from coming out.

Pour enough oil into a frying pan to cover about half of the turnover. About a half of an inch or so. Once the oil is hot, drop in a few of the turnovers.

Once they look golden brown, turn them over so the other aide can cook. Once they are done, put them on a paper towel covered dish and sprinkle a little more of the cinnamon/sugar mix. This you will have to experiment with, it's a personal taste issue.

It's one of the simplest apple turnovers you will ever make and tastes good too.

My parents were poor and this was one treat that didn't break the bank with 4 kids.

There are documented cases in the Civil War of Hard-tack stopping bullets...
