OCW Help

So I went back out today, didn’t do round robin. 5 on each. I know I pulled a few. Poa2 #5 poa #4. I think I need to run it again. I did it over a chronograph and put the velocity and sd at the bottom. Top left -right- center- bottom left-right 22.1-22.9 in .2 increments. I think somewhere between 22.3-22.7 though. They are slow and wish I could see a node in the 2540 range.

Maggie’s The Wood Shop

Light repair. Wife pushed out the back of our half glass IKEA hemnes bookcase (middle quality level). Problem is it is supporting the middle upper bridge piece of our entertainment center area. Essentially below but half glass doors on right side and left side is half width.

Used a piece of 2x4 clamped to hold right side of bridge piece up.

To fix the bow in the back, had to cut a rabbet in each end of a couple of 1x4's.

Decently quick fix and should be a permanent fix. The 1x4 piece sits flush and didn't push the bookcase any further from the wall.

Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

Those were 5” destroyer rounds. When things were starting to get really messy on Omaha Beach, a couple of destroyer captains completely disobeyed orders and risked tearing the bottoms out of their ships in order to get in close and get their guns on target. Some of them were just 2 to 300 yards from the beach and couldn’t miss. It helped tip the balance.

If I remember right one cruiser captain actually flooded one whole side of his ship, allowing his guns to depress enough to hit the beaches.

That said if someone wants to say it’s a 45, who am I to argue.
Battleship Texas flooded the starboard side in order to gain elevation to hit inland targets…

Maggie’s 23andMe and your DNA History

Every time I go to the VA for routine check up they draw blood for lab work ,I assume they could be doing DNA stuff too , so I'm fucked .they also push all those vaxantions, nope nope and nope . Even one of the nurses says she won't get them so I feel better about refusing them.
My nurse goes down the "checklist" - Do I feel safe in my home? Am I in pain? etc.

Then she skipped a question with a "I don't need to ask that one." statement.

I asked her what she thought she knew the answer to without asking me the question.

She said the question concerned the flu shot. I told her I did not want one. She explained that she knew that which is why she did not ask the question. I asked her how she knew I did not want one.
She said I have never got one so she knew I would not get one this time. I told her I thought she was very perceptive.

Kind of did the opposite to a friend. when I was a ffl I ordered him a S&W 44 mag. He couldn't hit anything with it. I told him he was flinching, he said no way. he laid the loaded revolver on the bench to take a leak. I pulled a random round. he came back in recoil on the empty chamber almost as much as when he fired a round.
That’s actually a great way to show someone that they are flinching. I’ve done similar.

.

Never understood why anybody would do that to ANYbody that they KNEW wouldn't be able to handle it. Girls, little kids, etc. Even if nobody got hurt, that person would never want to shoot anything again or have an incurable flinch. Pisses me off severely to hear of these dumbass pranks
