Was it your 1/2 sandwich? 😋

It just so happens , it was.
But then; isn't possession 9/10 of the law?

Reminds me of my auto parts paint days.
Add the wrong lighting or color sample and have fun.
( Nothing like a silver car with parts from three different companies of three different color shades.)

Around violet color on the spectrum , our color vision starts to fall off. No I didn't experiment with color beyond that point.
I should have to create an invisible color for camouflage from humans and become rich. But alas ; am poor instead. Ah well.

Hand me a "silver" pearl and your chart and I'd be busy for a minute. Or twenty.

Hate to ask, but I'm nosy...what did that jug set you back? I'm not a drinker
(any more) but a shot of that every now and then would be sweet, for sure.

It was $38. Like I said, it’s a tourist trap, so I just figure it’s on the high side. But then again I haven’t sampled it yet, so who knows, it may be fantastic. I love that it’s a local area distillery too.

Stick with Mercedes silver. They claim their Astral silver hasn't ever changed. But it is pricey, so you see goofy paint jobs that don't match.

Well... What ? I have a HDB C02 powered .68 cal 60 joule beast. I'm building a Ruger 10-22 Gatling gun. Bowling ball cannon is a friend's build. Could be any of those ?

Yeah, the Ruger 22, thats the one. I remember showing a video of some guy with a 22 type one he'd made. Say goodbye to multiple packets of rounds in one minute stuff.

Since you have a FFL you could technically own it....BUT do you have the almost 1/3 of a million dollars to actually own/buy it??

Not to mention deep pockets for the ammo!

River rock wal in the back of the ditch, I was braking, steering... Car was pretty much stopped as it hit the ditch. Laptop went flying... still had chat (from here with youse guys) from a few minutes ago loaded on it ! or it hit the door hard enough to start chat on it's own. I have taken this corner many times before wet roads suck ! I'm going to go try it again and get it right !!
Maybe slower and in the Tundra....

Yesterday I stopped in got the ears lowered. I had to turn around in the grocery/thrift store lot.
Thought gee lived up in the area for 13 yrs never stopped in.
Bought this gold wash stuff for $12.00.
In the lot were 3 pairs of 14Kt earrings.
9.9864 grams or $1174.00
Having a great weekend of getting free unexpected profit.

I can't believe the stuff you guys get from your opp shops! Never see anything like that in ours. All picked over and gone before they hit the shop fronts. Guess its our convict heritage!

And speaking of such things ... what's the preference for posting images? Not just in this thread, but in general. If I post as thumbnails you have to click, it seems an annoyance to have to click something, but on the other hand, if I post as full image, it seems an annoyance to have the whole image right there "in your face" if you didn't want to see it. (This is particularly an issue when posting newspaper clippings in my bottle postings.). Which do people generally prefer.

Either way. I post full size often as I explain a bit about each picture which I can't do in thumbs.

Funny shade of black that freshwater one.

Gotta be careful of not just AI stuff but also doctored real stuff too.
I saw a video on Japans maglev train and how fast it was. But something caught my eye. Was it the trains shadow or something else.
Here's the one that's the most prolific on the net. There's a few versions of it but the footage is the same.

So I did some searching and the thing that caught my eye wasn't a shadow, it was a car on a road under the bridge. All the footage is the original in this one. The others they sped up a fraction of the video so the train looked faster. What people get out of doing this I don't get.
This is how fast it really is.

I asked the very religious lady if they get any gold.
"Oh No! I take it to the city myself and sell it. It never comes into the shop"
