  1. About the same age as the T-55, too.
  2. True. How much training does it take to drive into a minefield, or the field of fire for an ATGM after all?
  3. T-55s are better than nothing, but not much. They'll be used against infantry and bunkers, where HE rounds from their guns will be somewhat effective. They're also somewhat effective against trucks and light armored vehicles, but most of the light armor Ukraine has is armed with main guns that will easily penetrate the T-55 armor. ATGMs won't have any problem with penetration, either. They are grapes waiting to be squished.
  4. Same for those I graduated with in 1979. Same as it ever was.
  5. The band name: The Beagles, Cook And The Gang, The Map Band In 1979 I was driving the family banana yellow Galaxy 500 station wagon. Despite what you might think, it was not a chick magnet. It would haul ass, though.
  6. I hear you, but think it may also be an invitation for some suspected illegals to fuck around so that they can find out.
  7. That's not about Russian comms being read. It's about Ukrainian forces using fake radio calls to get the Russians off balance. When I was a kid, the guy who owned my favorite book store was a veteran of the Bulge. He was in a combat engineer company stationed right at the front lines, since the Ardennes was a "quiet" area. Starting about a month before the German offensive, they would hear tanks moving around in their front every night. A patrol would go out to investigate, and every morning come in with a record player hooked up to a loudspeaker and a recording of German tanks moving around. It got to be routine, until one night...
  8. Abbott et al thinking that they can avoid the pardon if they can lean on the judge to throw the case out, or set a joke sentence?
  9. I got to kind of meet Dave South once. Navasota Little League didn't have a summer program, so he played in the College Station program one summer. Steve Kragthorpe was the aggy OC, and his son was on the team, so Steve helped coach. He was amazing with the boys, and had every one of them working at every position, including pitching. They all improved greatly and had a ball doing it. He had some of us dads in the stands charting pitches for pitchers and hitters. He was in the stands with me one afternoon while I charted my son's pitching when Dave South came up and started talking about the upcoming football season. Steve asked him nicely to let him finish coaching the kids' game, but South wouldn't let up. Steve had to get rude about it before a couple of dads who were aggy came over and distracted South, leading him away. I always remember South as that dick, and enjoyed his constant disappointment. Kragthorpe, on the other hand, has always had my admiration and respect.
  10. What is his owner's Surly handle?
  11. 29%
  12. Not often you get to watch your team let the game slip away twice in the same game. Nice.
  13. Baker Mayfield is a dick, true, but he has never promised to use his power of pardon to free a murderer from the consequences of his crime. No, Abbott is the worst, by a long shot.
  14. My daughter and her fiance moved to Oregon because of this shit eater and his shit eater Republican cronies. Fuck them, each and every one, and every shit head who votes for them. ETA - You just know that Abbott and the leaders of the legislature are looking for three Black Democrats to kick out of the legislature to show that they won't be outdone by Tennessee.
  15. Surly circa 1575.
  16. This. Hang him, shoot him, feed him alive to hogs, just don't let a disloyal fuck who betrayed his oath live.
  17. Yep. Scottish, too.
  18. 14? I'm 12. Hehe, hehe.
  19. ^^^^^^ Outstanding! Congratulations.
  20. Yep. I've already seen it on Facebook. Stupid morons.
  21. It doesn't relate to pregnancy hormones. Every time we leave the house for anything from a weekend to a two week vacation my wife goes into full nesting mode. Like, "Let's do all this shit I've been putting off for years in one afternoon." Telling her that her goals are unreasonable is not conducive to having a good weekend away. Just let her find out on her own.
  22. That dude's world is going to change when he's doing 70 on the freeway and that lizard runs up his neck and over his ear.
  23. "While she was sleeping." Riiiiight. And that snake's not 4 feet long. Closer to 2. Still gross, though.
  24. That display is not just for this baseball game. Those morons buy and wear that shit all the time. It's a mental illness.
