    Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    Abusing Yellow is meant to be a labor of love, not something you sell to the highest bidder.

    The 1911 pistol (right) is mounted in a rifle stock with a trigger connected to the pistol's trigger. The M16 (center back) has had the plastic handguard replaced with a nice-looking wooden handguard. The M1 Carbine (bottom right) has a nifty under-barrel grenade launcher mounted.

    Anyone ever go on a Wikipedia binge? Get on Wikipedia on a topic that interests you, and start clicking links in a "open as new tab" manner, ultimately getting a dozen or more tabs of related material. I was doing this today on "Stellar evolution" (Don't ask me why) and one of the tabs was neutron stars - very fascinating things.

    One of them photographed by NASA forming bizarre EM energized gas and dust...

    Behold The Hand of God:



    How cool is that?

    Neutron star stuff - the entire human population of Earth, if placed onto a neutron star, would compress into an object the size of a sugar cube.

    No! It is not xenophobia. This is amongst many other reasons why all immigrants should learn and comprehend English.
