Horses don't sleep standing up. If there is something that can hurt a horse in a pasture, it will find it. That's the damn truth. I have a worthless horse with over $50k invested into him to prove it. We had one impale itself on a t-post like it was charging a Swiss pike square. Mine was expensively bred to be a money making stud of cutting horses. He was built so well and so cow minded, they went ahead and gelded him so they could use him for comps. 2 weeks later he sliced all the tendons in a rear leg. They spent a lot of money trying to get it fixed. Then his owner got hurt at work. So we ended up with him. He's gimpy, but he can get around. |

Its possible to own multiple Luger pistols with the same serial number.
Each year the Germans would re-start the serial numbers from 1 You have to know the year and serial number to know which one you have. |

Fact: The gauge (the distance between the centers of wheels) is the same for all horse-drawn vehicles, if they are intended for use on public streets. The smallest undertaker's buggy has the same gauge as the largest coal wagon: 4' 8". The reason for this is that if you build your wagon too narrow or too wide, they won't fit in the ruts of the road, and will wear out much more quickly. If a wagon were used in a private setting, i.e. a mine, the gauge isn't affected by public streets and may be whatever the location demands. Fact: The ruts generated by the pioneers driving the Oregon Trail are still visible in many places, sometimes in bare rock. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/19/c0/9b/19c09be03ae22b47435c1c0ac17a6fe5.jpg http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/~hyde/jackson/ruts1.jpg https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT9YBqH7r9075almIV9rt8Uo0dGp6_xV06VlOAZpiXW7IFIk4E8 https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSCQqv_wTFzLs2ilSnMukguQ303twv6NW2DsicjFTljIxz14oHTOw Railroad gauge is 4' 8.5" Which dates back to the Romans. ...which ultimately leads to the final dimensions of the Space Shuttle. |

Groundwater (aquifers) both confined and unconfined have tides that are measurable.
Working with some highly educated hydrogeologists including one with a doctorate degree and they though I was full of shit when I told them they could see a tide. Told them to place a transducer in an observation well to measure the radius of influence of a production well during a 72 hour pump down test. Results had a sinusoidal wave form...from the moon. They then thought I was some kind of genius..lol Did a water study in Iraq and first found this phenomenon, thought my barometric corrections were wrong, then figured out that the wave form was oddly familiar. Being a surfer and living on a boat I figured out where I had seen it before. Checked NOAA buoy data and confirmed the tide in the groundwater. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Al Capone and a bunch of other Chicago mobsters used to come chill in what is now the contrived BWCA wilderness in MN. They would hang out at the resorts that used to be there until the heat died down back home. My 91 year old grandma told me this. She had a sister that worked at one of the resorts. They used to stay at http://littlebohemialodge.com/ too. There was a movie about 7 years ago with parts of them staying there. Family legend has it that one night in northern WI while my great grandpa was out of town, they stopped at the farm (just off of a major road at the time) and asked my great grandma if they could spend the night on their way through. My great grandma was scared but told them they could stay in the barn, which they did. My grandpa (a young boy) snuck into the hay loft and described them playing cards on the work bench and drinking. He said the doors to the car (which they parked in the barn, assuming they were trying to hide it) were open and their jackets and hats were hanging on the open doors. Said he could see guns laying on the back seat. In the morning they left cash under the front door of the house, quite a bit for the time. Said they were very polite. No one knows who they really were. |

Books that have rough-cut/feathered paper on the outside edge are called "deckle edge". On a paper machine, the sides of the form are called the deckle, and the feathered-edges at the deckle are normally trimmed and recycled. However, a printer may buy rolls of this deckle edge paper, cut to size for book making or art projects.

As for something most people don't know...torque is a pretty terrible predictor of bolt pretension, most design models for torque specs assume lubed threads, and torque wrenches generally have poor accuracy on top of that. There are much more accurate ways to establish bolt pretension than torque wrenches, but they are either expensive or complicated. A properly designed and assembled bolted joint will generally only fail during assembly/disassembly. |

You don't need any tools to disassemble a stock 1911. Even the grips. The tools you'd need are contained within the gun itself.

If you lose your barrel bushing on your GI grade 1911, you can replace it with a spent shell. It works much better if the rim casing is filed off. |
