Overnight Open Thread [11/23/2021]
Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way-- Leo Nikolaevitch Tolstoi
Fifteen men on a Dead Man's Chest ---- Robert Louis Stevenson
Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest --
Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!
Let every man honor and love the land of his birth and the race from which he springs and keep their memory green. It is a pious and honorable duty. But let us have done with British-Americans and Irish-Americans and German-Americans, and so on, and all be Americans... If a man is going to be an American at all let him be so without any qualifying adjectives; and if he is going to be something else, let him drop the word American from his personal description.-- Henry Cabot Lodge
The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure that it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.-- Ernest Hemingway
This is a fascinating website that allows one to juxtapose photographs from Operation Overlord, the invasion of Normandy, with the current scenes.
Want to feel on top of the world where the craggy peaks meet the clouds? The 2-billion-year-old Mount Roraima is where you should be head. Made famous for inspiring Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel, 'The Lost World', and more recently Disney's Pixar film, Up, the mountain rises more than 9200 feet above the ground making it the tallest peak of the country. Roraima, a massive tepui (table-top mountain), lies on the Guyana Shield and its sandstone cliffs ride straight up from the lush rainforests all around. At the peak, the vegetation is scanty, yet the vast majority of species of fauna exist only on tepuis like Roraima. This magical landscape features surreal rock formations, the quartz crystals of Crystals Valley, and endemic orchids, carnivorous plants, and the intriguing Roraima bush toad. Mount Roraima is definitely a must-see destination in Guyana.

I had the empty plastic jar on the counter because I was trying to figure out if I wanted it or not, and today I heard a scrabbling and a thump from the kitchen where the big tom had stuck his head in it to lick out the crumbs and gotten his head stuck in it and fell off the counter trying to back out of it.
Of course he panicked and I had to pin the jar so he could wiggle his head out. Funniest thing in a long time.

My goal is to live another 32 years (to 90) and then take a rocket into space and be cast adrift to just slowly drift off to my final sleep while staring at the MW in all its glory.
Though G D in His infinite wisdom will surely deny me this very selfish wish and instead will have me pass surrounded by my 3 Kids and numerous Grandkids (thank Him).

Go back! My wife has a colleague who goes frequently, and he tells her that outside of Paris, France is actually normal.
And the Normans still remember.

Will do. I thought it was a project by a father & son. I can't stand the thought of being masked on a plane for hours, but if things are ever "normal" again, returning to Normandy is at the top of my list. The American cemetery is certainly a must-see, but the Canadian cemetery at Beny-sur-Mer, though much smaller, is also very moving.

Few years back had a relative visit that wanted to see the Grand Canyon, so off we went.

I need to take some time to work through this info and decide what I should zero my 16-inch barrel AR's to.
If I want to use the same criterion the US Army (and all armies) use. The military establishes a rifle/ammo zeroing range to provide torso hits on a standing person at ranges both shorter and longer than the zero range. With the soldier aiming center mass. This (theoretically) enables hits in a continuous distance "band" without the soldier needing to adjust elevation. Which he may screw-up.

Back in the day, guys like that used to "resist arrest" a lot, then "hit their head" a few times getting into the patrol car, then "fall down the stairs" a few times at the station.
I'm not defending that, mind you. But that's what used to happen.
The criminals don't really understand what's in store for them if the current legal system breaks down. It won't mean they get to commit crimes with impunity. It will mean vigilante justice, possibly followed by a new legal system akin to the pre-Victorian British "Bloody Code", which had over 200 capital offenses.

It isn't too complicated to figure out. Unfortunately, we need to go back a hundred years and start over from Einstein, since he made mistakes that are still affecting physics today, and most of physics in the last 70 years is untestable, unfalsifiable fantasy/bullshit.
Read Alexander Unzicker's 4 books on various physics related subjects to get a good idea of how badly physics is fucked.

Reality is that robbery, murder and mayhem are totally out of control and neither the police or courts have the ability to even make a dent in what is going on. Murder rates skyrocketing, flash mobs cleaning out stores, human trafficing.....and what is our government doing? Putting people in jail for protesting at school board meetings or failing to wear a mask .
But the FBI can track down 650 people who walked into the Capitol for trespassing.

Thanksgiving makes me think of Mammaw and Pappaw's for the holidays. Mammaw making about 12 different dishes and loading them into the 'warming' wall oven. This house had three ovens and they all worked. It came with an over under real oven and a smaller warming oven below (1950's were a weird time.) Mammaw somewhere along the line decided that the wall oven did not have enough space, so she had pappaw knock out some counters and go with an additional, under the counter full size oven.
Turkey that was amazing (to everyone but Mammaw's sister.)
Scalloped Potatoes made with cheez whiz that were amazing.
Bread stuffing- and oyster dressing Mom made by Grandpa's recipe.
Green Beans that did not taste like green beens. Bacon and spices.
Fried Sweet Corn (drooling.)
And Pies. Pies as far as the eye could see.

You need to try turkey thats done right. My aunt had the gift. Actually all the aunts would be in her kitchen doing the cooking. It was never the same once she got old and stopped doing thanksgiving. Well all the aunts got old, so her kitchen wasn't buzzing with a billion years of collective turkey experience anymore. But yeah, not done right its just dry tasteless crap.

He testified that he started the night wearing a vest given to him by the police department that he was training with, but gave it to a buddy before things went sideways that night.
Or were you referring to him in court? You are correct that he was never vested up. Probably for the exact reason we all think.

Its not that I walk around the house with no clothes, I just don't wear them to bed, where I would be if i didn't have to answer the door for the fucking ham fairy.

It's actually pretty tough to get good data or info on the amount of stuff shipped over there during WWII, but it was absolutely off the charts in terms of machine goods, clothing, textiles, chemicals, trucks and food, radios, and supplies of anything and everything imaginable, right down to needles and thread. Too bad they sent us communists in return.
It's "interesting" to me that the former Soviet Union doesn't allow or having any of the mind fvckery that they exported over here. I guess they ought to know better.

Getting used to some 12-yr Barbados rum here (The Real McCoy, dumb name, though historical, but "pure" rum by the most rum-geek-respected distillery on the island). Think I'm likely to focus on more accessible versions for a while, it's good but not easy drinking for my current palate.

I was the Food Service Officer on the USS Camden (AOE-2) from 1989 to 1992. The boxes of meat we received to serve to the crew were stamped "For Institutional Use Only". I always thought that was hilarious.
I imagine the boxes we sent to the Russkies during The Great Patriotic War* were similarly labeled.

This is basically what a hypersonic vehicle is, and is the type the CHicoms are playing with:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost-glide
Ballistic missiles follow a basic parabolic "ballistic" trajectory. Well, a suborbital path. Hypersonic vehicles modify that by using atmospheric lift at high speed to give a modified trajectory.
You can come in the target a low angle, like a screaming meemie, that renders all the assumptions about ballistic missle paths invalid. Chicoms could get a nuke in the US coming on one of those low paths in from the south, not over the north pole, as all ballistic missile paths must follow.

Note that Apollo CM reentry followed a type of single skip boost-glide trajectory. It didn't really leave the atmosphere in a true skip according to purists, but the effect was used to advantage to lower the heat load.

Hypersonic vehicles also pose a threat to our carriers. Imagine lobbing in nuke via one of those hypersonic reentry vehicles. The thing comes in at a low angle, screaming at Mach-ridiculous, and comes in over the carrier and detonates a tactical nuke.
Carrier is vaporized.

Think about a scenario where a nuke is used at Three Gorges.
Once nukes come on the field, proportionality gets thrown out (although one can always say that proportionality in war is insane.) The thing with nukes is that you can almost always come up with a more horrifying use. Maybe that's just weapons in general, I dunno.

Yep, if China did that, I assume the ICBMs would start raining down some megatonnage on Chicom cities.
Unless of course, Chicom spies and traitors haven't managed to put some sort of kill switch in all that response mechanism.
I have the uneasy feeling that our elite idiots in Washington will be sitting around, worried about trannys or other woke shit, and the Chicoms hit the go button and launch some sneak attack that catches them all of guard.

I was more thinking whether nuking the dam would also cause a flood of water laced with fallout downstream.
My point being, when you are gaming out nukes, there is always a worse use that you can come up with that would be truly devastating- by their very nature. They are not precise in any way.
This is why Reagan's plan of missile defense was always the only sane answer.

Hypersonic sounds bitchin', till you realize how many dozens of yards of hardened concrete that you're going to have to penetrate/shatter/weaken/fatally fracture.
As engine builders are wont to say, there's no substitute for cubic megatons.

I think the easiest, most reliable way to take out Three Gorges is an ICMB with some megatonnage. It's the best way to be sure. May not be the only way, but the most reliable.

Amen to that. Currently "sleeping" on the floor of our living room while gSon and gDaughter are sleeping on the cot and the couch. Coof has turned sleepovers at gMa and gPa's into a big deal. It is heartbreakingly gratifying to have been placed in such a position. Yesterday we toasted marshmallows outside on a campfire set in our weber kettle and prior to that took them to visit Mrs. K's recently widowed mother. I taught the gSon the game "fingers" while there, which he quickly picked up and enjoyed immensely. Also while visiting, I called my sister to discuss where our own mother's failing health and abilities are headed and how we four kids will continue to work to keep her in her current duplex in accordance with her xpressed desire to expire there rather than "down the hill" in the "continual care" facility. It is crushing to have to tell a loved one that "these things you no longer can do" when that person is the very one who long ago taught you yourself how to do them. Truly, in the midst of life we are in death.
