I hate it when people get their facts forked.

Here is a dummy round from the GAU-8.
As you can clearly see it is much larger than a red bull can, taller than a Monster can or a bottle of Smirnoff. Unfortunately it is a bit smaller than the state of Alabama as you see from the picture.
Unfortunately, we keep no bananas in the house for reference, ill have none of that lascivious fruit in my house.

The "Redbull" round is the 30x113 that fits in the M230 or AW30 in the Apache copter.
Sorry, I have nothing but projectiles of that one.

Eight decades ago almost everything was powered by steam.
Was just at the Hull Oakes lumber mill in Monroe Oregon.
Supposedly it’s the last steam powered sawmill in the US.


Working around pulp/paper mill boilers in the PNW, this article was interesting; thank you!

Does he call the Boss and have him come and get the truck (while waiting in the parking lot) or does he just walk away? Either way it could hurt.
Do you know what a Repo* is? They don't take time or care in the way it is collected...they grab it and get away before someone comes out with a weapon to dispute losing the shit they didn't make the payments on.

*Repossession - default on the loan and they send someone to take back the property.

Grew up on one of those sleds and still have one at the cabin in Ruidoso. We used to polish and wax the runners and they would haul ass.

I grew up running one of these.

And still have my dad’s from his childhood in the garage.
In good working order.
Just need some ice.
Snow here doesnt work well with them.
And our roads are WAY to crowded to rock down em.
Otherwise I would.
Even at my age (42)
