    OOPS. Herself of the Krugerrand hair saw this post and said I should tell youse where I got the recipe: It was from a little bistro in the shadow of Colditz Castle -- the infamous POW camp for escape-crazy bastages. I didn't know what "weiner schnitzel" was, so like Herself says: "When...

    The whole name of my beat-to-crap pork chops is "Weiner Schnitzel". Ya gotta make it yourself... Besides, you can take out a lotsa frustrations beatin' a 4-inch poke chop into a 10-inch circle. Sometimes, when you then dip the thin meat-tissue into the flour/milk/lemon/egg glop, it gets hard...

    Here is a 30.06 and my .58 calibre 555-grain bullet -- both taken from downed deer. Yes, the .58 cal opened up to about an inch across. It killed, skinned, and cooked the deer with just the one shot. <-- That's what the guys at the hunt club said.

    I just made schnitzel for dinner last night. You take a boneless pork chop with rim fat removed, place it between saranwrap on a big board and beat the crap out of it with a cooking hammer thingy. The four-inch round pork chop gets ten inches across and thin as paper. Coat it in...

    Never even heard of them before. Couldn't ID them from the pic, so I read the print and figgered it out.

    I mentioned TEMPEST earlier. Telecommunications Electronics Material Protected from Emanating Spurious Transmissions I have a weird story of what happened to Your Humble Obdn't &tc for being at the bleeding edge of technology when PC's first came out. A client had a multi-storied building...

    They cannot be shielded. The whole metal weapon will take the charge. To shield against EMP (we call it TEMPESTING) means to have a very clear path to ground around the item you want shielded. You are shielding these "things" so that the bazillions of electrons that are suddenly raining down...

    I have a serious question that may sound a tad offbeat... Given that a lot of modern military-style rifles have laser or dot sights, wouldn't an EMP render those battery-powered sights useless? Is this a big hole in the personal weapons of our military in use today?

    You've opened my eyes to a blessing I did not know I had. My grandlings are utterly respectful to their Grandma Witch and me. Crikey... They call us on our anniversary, birthdays, and now that I think of it, Wolfie called me up on Veterans Day to tell me he was proud to be my grandson...

    Makes my cannon an expensive noise-and-fog maker, no error. Although now that I think onnit... the markup on fireworks is so much that mebbe my cannon ain't out of court after all. It's just that I have rifles and pistols that use BP, and they are not such hogs. I could fire my 1851 .44...
