Likely for hunting hogs. In Texas, feral hogs are a huge problem for farmers, causing about 50 million dollars a year in crop damage. There is no illegal way to kill wild hogs in Texas. You can pay to shoot them with a machine gun out of a helicopter.

Wow. I would love to hear "How Many More Times" on that system.

Stumbled across it online. Looks like a basic curbside, and the body appears to be in two pieces; the cut line is from side to side, including the roof. That's a bit odd. My big concern would be the overall proportions and quality of the castings.

A Tamiya 1/16 Tiger I tank (early production). Early version of the tank, not the model. I got the display only version. It costs a lot less than the r/c tank. It was also a great price, even for the display kit. Here's a comparison of a 1/16 and 1/35 early Tiger I. [

Well that's a bummer.

I'm wondering if that body would be a good start for a curbside 962 road car. I like the idea of the project, but starting with a $700 Hiro is not really an option. Thanks. Lee

I wonder if you might be remembering Eddie Hill's 1989 crash. His car lifted and body panels flew off. I found a video clip but am having trouble posting it using my phone.

Love that Twin Mill.

That's what I meant to say. The one in which Icewave just got shredded. That episode could have been a "greatest hits" compilation.

Friday's episode DELIVERED THE CARNAGE. I love the show. There was one match on Friday that had parts scattered everywhere. The other fights weird incredible, too. It was an awesome episode. I prefer the Fembots from the Austin Powers movie.

Years ago, I also used artist's acrylic paint for the white shoe polish markings on funny car tires. That application was okay to have streaks and be imperfect. I mixed in a tiny bit of yellow and brown to get the look of sun faded shoe polish.

I had not heard of that car. Cool idea and brilliant execution. But...6 years. Gee, I wonder what it cost. Gotta be 7 figures.

What was the highest speed he reached?

No pics, but I made steak fajitas last night. The recipe was from an episode of Good Eats about steak. They were not very good. I don't know if I did something wrong or if I just don't care for his marinade, but it was still a bummer. If I try it again, I'll use something other than skirt steak. Maybe wait for ribeye to go on sale. I think I'll look for a clone recipe of Taco Cabana's fajitas. I really like theirs.

I'm sitting here watching this on cable TV. During the scene in which the Auto Destruct sequence is initiated, passageways from the bridge open, to let crew members evacuate. Each passage has door that lowers down like a ramp. The lower surface of the ramp is a cowl induction hood scoop. I wish I could do a screen grab and post it here.

Yeah I'd like to see a scale R-4360 pulling a race plane around the sky.

Ah. Ok.

What is FTB?

I think the Pocher Volvo truck engine would be a great start for a 1/8 scale pulling tractor. Two would be even better.

I have used a paid Fotki for around 18 years. IMHO, free hosting is obsolete.

Jessica Chastain. Especially in The Help. Wow. I didn't even recognize her.

Darryl Greenamayer's "Red Baron" civilian F-104 could be another option.

I hope food and drink are both welcome here. I started 2 different infused vodkas tonight. One is garlic, the other is garlic and jalapeño. The idea came from a discussion on another forum about the liqueurs I'm making. A guy said the best infused vodka he ever had was with garlic, and suggested it would be great in a Bloody Mary. I had a heck of a time finding a "how-to" that actually gave quantities. Many simply say put garlic in Vodka. These have 9 cloves in 750ml. There is one jalapeño in the second jar. You can see that one jar needs more Vodka. I'll add more tomorrow. I've never had a Bloody Mary. I'm looking forward to trying it. I'll be using tomato juice from our garden. I've also read that this makes a pretty good shot.

Those are some pretty good efforts. Nice work.

I opened this thread to ask if he wrote that. Great episode.
