  1. https://www.silverspitfire.com/ Beautiful airplane.
  2. Mahsupials. Because they're fast.
  3. Or @markstanco's $300 alligator
  4. Yeah, this oughta make him hard.
  5. Maybe you need to climb down from that roof and watch a little gardening porn.
  6. Usually, you see the cucumber go in the anus.
  7. She has kind of a St Vincent vibe going with her voice. Big improvement over some of her earlier solo work. Nice pants too.
  8. Brother and I shared a bedroom and had more than 50 hanging from the ceiling. One big dogfight with bullet holes and battle damage. S.P.A.D.s attacking Bettys and whatnot. We had a larger B-52 with a stream of bombs coming down. He became an engineer for McDonnell and worked to streamline frontline repairs of battle damage, mostly for the Israelis. Early training.
  9. This has always been a favorite style for me.
  10. That was the first thought I had when I read Telstar but for the life of me I couldn't remember who the artist was. Thanks
  11. How elitist are we going to be? I was raised on Ellington, Armstrong and the Dukes of Dixieland but I don't want to offend by posting something that isn't "real" jazz.
  12. ^^^^^Windy
  13. New shit has come to light https://kfor.com/2019/07/11/new-details-on-uranium-rattlesnake-found-during-traffic-stop-in-guthrie/ Makes perfect sense now.
  14. Jenkins and Jones
  15. Good on you, Slorch.
  16. I couldn't have written it better than you did, Slorch. It took my mother and I miss her every day. Like somebody else said, if I get it and have enough awareness to see it, I will not put my kids through the struggle of watching me slip away.
  17. This is that same tornado a few miles west of the overpass and a few minutes earlier. They weren't safe under there if it had maintained this intensity.
  18. I stumbled across this and was going to put it in the Songbird thread but I'll just leave it here.
  19. Recipe please. This looks delicious.
  20. Looks lush. What variety of grass is that?
  21. From earlier in the thread.
  22. It sounds like everything is growing like crazy this year. Is goatweed hard to control? Not something we have to worry about here.
  23. A couple pictures of this years brome crop.
  24. We had 3 WDs and a Farmall M with an MW hand clutch retrofit and 4 balers. An M and an H to pull 8' sickle mowers and 3 of the nieces and nephews or wives on 9N Fords with 12' rakes. It was quite a crew. Field lunches were the best. Those old farm wives could cook. It would take us from late August right up to milo harvest to get it all wrapped up. We had a 53 Chevy pickup with a generator/welder mounted in the back. There was a 55 gal drum mounted on a rack for fuel. A bigass anvil and vise hung of the bumper. We had more tools in that truck than we had in our shop. There were damn few problems we couldn't fix out of that truck. I'll have to see if I can find some pictures and scan them in here. You youngsters and your cabs and GPS might get a kick out of it. The most excitement was when one of the rakes would stir up a bumblebee nest or somebody would come across a prairie rattler. The biggest one I ever saw was 18" or so and most were a foot or less. They made up for their lack of size with numbers. Sometimes we would square bale some of the hay to feed our small cowherd and it would get dicey bucking those bales onto a flatbed. The snakes liked to get under the bales and escape the sun. Fun times.
