I remember that emblem above the gas door - I had a B210 that I put 136 hours (I kept a log since knew epic project) of oxy-acetylene welding into - where I achieved my best mastery of managing gas sheet metal welding distortion.

Orange Z & Brown B210?

I acquired a bunch of different air cleaners that would fit my 74 620 not knowing which was proper. I'm pretty sure I have the right one installed. Now in process of downsizing. It bothers me that parts are dwindling for these cars. Of course this has no bearing on customs.

CA does not pollution test vehicles >25 years old? Wow. I would have never thought. That means an OE rusty air cleaner isn't worth much. Guess that means For Free on CL or FB. (I'm 45 East of Pittsburgh)

Vietnam peace talks bogged down, Nixon for first time ordered max b52 heavy bombing - first time in war. They caved. Last Resort about the nuclear sub mutiny during coup is USA pilot was epic awesome. You need to be just crazy enough to negotiate from strength. Like bluffing in cards. All this terrorism crap going on for decades, world is Neville Chamberlain. Video of Imam saying if Hezbollah would have done to Saudi Arabia what they did on Oct 7th, Iran would be destroyed.

I thought there would be a market for California owners needing to pass CARB.

Can anyone imagine what it was like 150 years ago? How did girls not get pregnant? Now, we've achieved our goals: birth rates are plummeting. There is no fix for this.

Islam did have that Golden Age. But it died, a tragedy of epic proportion. Then scholars argue theories why it died. Here's Tyson's:

I thought I saw the side of a red one in the Dark Angel pilot. but it wasn't. ..... EDIT: So I went back and Google Pic search and found it was a 720! Appears @ 8:22 in the Pilot for Dark Angel

I seem to recall ID tried to bring charges against feds for Ruby Ridge.

I'm thinking girl. But what do I know LOL I'm 73 so obvious don't know Jack.

"Fled the United States." That means this person is a fool. Either a criminal or delusional.

Some forum owners are notorious for banning people. Josh at 67-72 Chevy Truck Forum is legendary. ChatGPT will tell you itself! I once commented (not argued) charging money to post classifieds did not help the hobby and that was it for me. I had a 69 C20 CST Custom Camper 396 w/AC Longhorn bed - the holy grail of those trucks that I was selling at that time. That was maybe 15 years ago. I'm tempted to send him an email and say, "Hey, are you still a dick?"

Where did you hide the bodies? LOL arf arf I make funny

Immigration is a BIG PROBLEM now because Assimilation does not happen anymore because of social media. In the past, immigrants were surrounded by "Americans" face-to-face. They had no option other than integrate/assimilate. Now, you can live in the fake reality of social media thus eliminating integration/assimilation. This now extends beyond immigrants and the new generation is not assimilating - they are living in their screen realities. This combined with contraception has destroyed reproduction which was inevitable before these technologies - no matter how hard you tried NOT to get the girl pregnant. Boy meets girl, Boy kisses girl, Babies! We are so fucked.... (or is it no-fucked?)

I was at a FL gun show during the Clinton Crime Bill hysteria and a guy had a Galil he carried in to sell. It was >$2000 back then - buy was bitching ATF agents were mingling in the crowd. Looked like a "HK" quality variant of the AK. Yes I wanted it. Another guy had a BIG suitcase with a folding stock HK .308 with ALL the attachments. I think it was a HK91 (I seem to recall there were 2 variants of the full size). He wanted either $3000 or $3500. There must have been a dozen attachments for it. Probably should have bot it but I would have just looked at it and now, being 73, it would be something to sell off. Yes, I wanted this one too.

I think most sites prohibit politics - but then you have Weber -v- Hitachi, Custom -v- Original and Wheels - issues I am sensitive to. I am all for the Guns and Airplane Porn threads which were unexpected and most welcome.

We totally screwed the Kurds in Desert Storm. We promised them support then gave Saddam ability to fly helicopters he used to put them down. They should have been given their country back, Kurdistan which was the northern tip of Iraq. Old maps of the area showed a desert where Iraq was created - a "lake of sand" where the surrounding countries had no borders. Still, the powers that be refused to reinstate Kurdistan.

Why am I thinking of an Elephant Seal???

When you see how large pieces of heavy steel behave like.... rubber, it's mind boggling that a structure as big as an aircraft carrier can be built. And I'm a 72 year old retired structural engineer. It's like religion, you have to believe the calculations! They allow you to do things... unimaginable!

Man, I NEEDED that! I totally forgot about her! If she composed and arranged this, she is at the highest level of music creativity/genius. (have to post on my Facebook page - Primus and Prokofiev make a little space.)

RE: The Destruction of America The Big Problem was that when this country was founded, Christianity was everywhere. People had Christian values. And so Free Speech among religious Christians made sense - especially when a lot came here to escape religion persecution. Religion, eh? But now The Young are running wild since they are not religious - their undeveloped brains are gullible, delusional, ignorant, naive, etc., and exhibit Dunning Kruger, etc. which are seduced by the internet which corrupts the real world they experience directly. Societal structure is being destroyed by chaos, groups of people that incompatible creeds, honors, ethics, etc. - no longer Christianity in common. Dare to imagine what the world will be like when in <100 years, Christianity will be dead and in <200 years, Islam will be dead. EDIT: I recently put 1 + 1 together: If you look at religions on the planet, the older ones convert into the newer ones. Christianity spread all over. But the newest religion is Islam which start around 500 AD. Islam has spread all over - changing some Christian states into Islam. And then Muhammad said he is the last prophet which I thought was rather arrogant. So what But wait: Islam is going to be the last religion - can you imagine a new religion sweeping over the earth after the internet has transformed reality? ...what was it that Mu said???? He was going to be the last prophet??? Holly Shit, I'll bet he is right. Did this guy foresee the end of religion and saw how to be the Last Man Standing?

Wonder if any Plane Guys dreamt of this at the Reno Air Races

Wow, just like German where they create new words by stringing them together. Submarine is das Unterseeboot
