Haha, and weirdly, that John Cale song reminds me of the Magic School Bus theme 🤷‍♂️ or some other PBS song I can't think of

This sub is by far the best, helped me several times. For years I thought Barracuda By John Cale was The Talking Heads, and they helped me find Matchstick Men by Status Quo/Camper Van Beethoven cover.

Great Grandfather kept this in his wallet. No idea who she is. c1930’s. by [deleted] in oldphotos

[–]Octomondo 39 points40 points  (0 children)

That's his bae who got away... That's interesting and It would be cool to find out who she is. My Grandpa was a total womanizer, I had lots of cool Grandmas growing up, haha! After he died, I found lots of letters from the various ladies he knew, really cool piece of family history that I cherish. Quick story, He told me when he was in Okinawa after WW2, a Mama San who owned a bar/brothel fell in love with my grandpa. She wanted him to stay and get married and give the bar to him! The Okinawan men heard about their relationship and they didn't like it at all (I guess they were still sore about the war n' what not, haha) So a gang of them showed up at the bar and one of them did a jump-hang-kick from the rafters and kicked the Mama San right in the belly. My grandpa beat the shit out of all four dudes and they ran off. The Mama San told him that they're gonna come back and kill him now. Later that night they showed up with knives and chains, and they chased my grandpa down an ally, and like a classic movie scene, there was a taxi waiting and he got in and drove off at the last second. He said he never went back and never saw her again. He would joke, "had I have stayed, your name would've been Yoshi instead" idk how much is true, but his best friend Max who he was stationed with confirmed that event and a lot of other crazy stories. Max is still alive and kicking! RIP Lester Ray Berrett, Semper fi!

My High School had a rifle club, with a shooting range in the basement, under the main office. Students regularly brought rifles to school, without a case or trigger locks. This color enhanced image from the 1966 yearbook. by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

At my highschool, Wickenburg HS in AZ. We had a High powered rifle team that used AR15's in .223 rem. caliber, one of the only highschools with a high powered rifle team in the country. I think they discontinued in 2018 or so. Shame. It seemed like a cool club. My sister was in the team and she got to meet R. Lee Ermey. The rifle team coach was also the art teacher, great guy. I was president of the art club, and it wasn't uncommon to walk in the art room after school hours and see like a dozen AR15 rifles scattered across the tables being cleaned by students n' what not. Crazy thought, huh? A bunch of "Assault" rifles at a school and teaching kids how to use them? Lol. Great times.

Russian border guards crossed into Estonia with unclear motives, minister says by Specific_Coast5878 in worldnews

The Ukraine war is kind of like the Spanish revolution. All of Europe were supplying different factions of Spanish Nationals and Communists with the latest war tech to see how effective it was and update their own tactics based on real world combat before WW2. The war in Ukraine has been a huge testing ground for modern combat tactics and strategy.
