Immediately available cash for immediate remediation tasks.

F-22 has a 20mm M61A2 Vulcan cannon. This one was reportedly shot down by an F-16, which also has a 20mm Vulcan. Only fighters in the inventory without a gun are the F-35B and -C - the F-35A has an internal 25mm.

Don’t forget liquor, soap, and spices.

Rule #1 in my shop: never, ever, EVER take your eyes of a spinning blade or bit. My wife knows if she comes in and asks me something, she doesn’t get an answer until whatever I’m working with is shut down and not moving. Also knows to stand at the door until everything’s shut down.

A submarine, at the time, wouldn’t have submerged if it didn’t need to. I always figured Indy just stayed on the conning tower while the sub stayed surfaced.

Which is why I find the TSA’s statement rather amusing, about “identifying the threat.”

It still shocks me how many people, including professional writers and directors, don’t understand that.

Imagine a car sliding on ice and trying to jump in but falling and having the rear of vehicle drive over you. Same concept.

Particularly 4WD. “I have four wheel drive. I can drive in the snow.”

Once heard a guy wondering how he got stuck in 2 feet of snow, because he had 400 hp in his Porsche 911.

Largely indistinguishable from most people, I’d expect.

My grandfather went the same way. Except it was a Chevy Citation.

Skip Bayless, inartful?  The hell you say...

That’s a Shelby Mustang tribute the same way Dread Zeppelin is a Led Zeppelin tribute: not even close, and you shouldn’t even try to pass it off as remotely the same.

There’s a joke - from Hans Bethe, I think, who himself was a towering mid-20th century physicist - about Feynman’s methodology that runs something like this:

That’s pretty much the entire Buffalo waterfront right now, between the spray and the 9-foot wind-driven seiche wave that hit the waterfront.

And Slavs. Particularly Slavs. Behind Jews, they were next-highest on the list.

And you can’t just check the exhaust pipe once.  Check it every hour (or more frequently, if the snow is falling more quickly.)

Maybe.  But most cops who commit violent crimes do so under the protection of the shield, not outside of it.  You don’t see many just gunning down people in their off-hours, because without the “Just doing my job” excuse to fall back on, they’re mostly cowards.

An “incident,” though it can be the start of a “pattern,” is not in and of itself a pattern.
