Wingsuit vs. Jetsuit Cafe

Audrey Hepburn at a NYC automat cafe, 1951

Baby pig liberated from pet store -- to be honest, that sounds like they just conned the pet store to give them a pig for free -- is raised by her big brother dog.

In case you missed it: All Day Batman Dreams About Sex.

Hotel has two special greeters.

Deaf 100 pound dog plays nanny to rescue beagle's puppies.

Stray cat starts following woman and her dog on walks in hopes of being adopted.

Going on a hike with your pet bears.

Coyote would like to be adopted as if he were a dog. But that can't happen, so they catch him and pair him with a lonely female coyote already in captivity.

Come out to the coast, we'll lay a few slot car tracks, we'll have a few laughs...

From trash to treasure: sickly, mangy husky dumped in an actual dumpster is rescued and is the prettiest girl now.

Another dog rescued from the trash.

Butterbean the baby goat was born too weak to stand, but his rescue dog brothers teach him how to walk and jump.

I am not sure what the average daily calorie burn was for people back then compared to today, but I'd imagine that, even if you are eating well, you are burning 1.5 times what we do today, just due to differences provided by labor reduction of modern conveniences.

@NYCMayor
The attack on Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan is horrifying. My thoughts are with the congregation and all who are shaken by this act of antisemitic violence. I am continuing to closely monitor the situation. Out of an abundance of caution, the NYPD will continue to deploy high-visibility patrols to Jewish religious and cultural institutions across the five boroughs.

I'm hoping that as they become less of an exotic luxury accessory and more accessible to ordinary shooters that increased demand will lead to increased production and new producers thus driving prices down. Really, there's no practical reason that a metal tube with some twisty bits inside should command that kind of price.

Get yourself a mini-mill, make a 'universal bushing' or two* and pay the ATF's $0 tax! Like trigger groups the barrel bushing would be the registered part that you can attach home rolled cans too. Do it all above board of course. It is intended to cut costs, not circumvent regs. Because retail is still too fricken high. Granted titanium cans would be pricey homemade or not.

*I think there are two common barrel thread size, and the big one for 50 BMG.

A week at a time, with two days off, then repeat. Wife, sons, and I lived off post, and going home after each shift was out of the question, so I slept in the battalion aid station between shifts.

The punchline: the barracks I patrolled had a bier vending machine, 2 DM a flasch (roughly equivalent to a 22 oz bomber). Kept me from going stir-crazy.
