Praise gun jesus.

Also the first drop fires were because the trigger was heavy and it's inertia was enough to "pull" the trigger as this short shows. There was a voluntary free upgrade to the more expensive, but lighter trigger. I've always wanted a SIG, but, unless I find a great price on a p229, I'm going to get an M&P 2.0.

Was it Finland that has setup artillery and defensive positions all long the border or Estonia? Either one basically has everything dialed in for artillery. If they make it 10km in before dying, I'd be impressed.

Buy a ThinkPad, download Wikipedia, print as many books as you can, spend 6 months binding those books, die from dysentery or almost starve to death in winter.

This is also my retirement plan.

I think the toothpick or whatever is to put space while keeping the thread tight? So that when you lift the button everything is still tight and all you have to do is wrap under. The drawing is... not clear.

My depression meal is just biting straight into a block of cheese. 5 bites or so is like 400 calories. Easy, quick, and it's cheese.

What you mean? They put a safety on it didn't they? Riding around In a humvee is always smooth and soldiers never forget to put the safety on.

When I was little I had trouble remembering which way was left(counter clockwise) and right (clockwise) because, if you turn to the left, at 12 o'clock it's turning to the left, but at 6 o'clock it's turning right.

So I was taught to think clockwise and counter clockwise instead. Maybe that's their confusion as well.

A security guard that found a bomb and saved many lives at Olympic Park in Atlanta during the Olympics in 1996. After an FBI leak, the media effectively claimed him as the culprit.

A Justice Department investigation of the FBI's conduct found that the FBI had tried to cause Jewell to waive his constitutional rights by telling him he was participating with a training movie about bomb detection, although the report concluded "no intentional violation of Mr. Jewell's civil rights and no criminal misconduct" had occurred.

At a press conference in July 1997, U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno expressed personal regret concerning the leak that resulted in intense media scrutiny of Jewell. She said, "I'm very sorry it happened. I think we owe him an apology. I regret the leak.

It's something we should be aware of due to current events and major newspapers owned by billionaires.
