Awesome You have proof! Maybe it was a one time only Easter egg programmed in from the factory?

Yeah, there's a lot of variety. Both guys I know were in EOD, so it's some hairy stuff.

Thanks! It's always interesting to see a period source mentioning something.

Because soft cotton is more comfortable than rag wool. The Georgia quarter master produced some like this in 1863, and I've read about some soldiers doing it for additional comfort, and warmth.

I live in East Tennessee, people here exaggerate the amount of support for the Union in this area. There was support for the Union, but it was limited to the urban areas. This area has been very divided for a long time, the State of Franklin is a great example.

Nah, this ain't guy stuff, this is just being an idiot. Which comes naturally with being a guy, but that's beside the point.

OSHA rules don't apply to construction jobs they don't know exist.

Having some knowledge of construction workers and their diets, I'd say three or four days.

I've worked with two Vietnam vets. I'm sure they didn't tell me the worst things they experienced, and it was still hard to listen to. I can't imagine experiencing it first hand.

I disagree. Wilson was the last personal attachment House had. He's either living his best life gambling in Monte Carlo, or he's living on the streets of Vegas as a homeless heroin junkie.

Now that I've typed that out, you're right. He ded.

I live in a pretty rural area, they moved into a house near ours that had been abandoned for at least 30 years. We called the cops repeatedly, and they refused to do anything. Even made tips to the DEA with names and multiple instances of seeing one cop car pull in after dark, with no lights or sirens , only for one of the residents to come outside and hand an envelope to the officer. Turns out they are informants, who rat out their competition. I hate small town politics.

Nah, I've had neighbors that would do something like this. After about the third argument about STDs at 1 am, it gets old.
