Beauty!

Welcome. I'm here all week.

Well, Elon Musk invented the term Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly to describe an explosion, so I guess anything's fair game at this point.

I'm 64 years old and I've been truly blessed to have known many, many real men, from WWII pilots to Vietnam Grunts to IED survivors to veteran Cops. There is one man, however, who still sticks out in my mind 46 years after our brief encounter. In 1979 I was living in Del RIo, Texas and I had to...
