OH! I even read with a net search that someone mentioned not seeing the table leg at first. It still did not make sense to me.

Now I get it...never would have without help though!
No, no, no. You never wood have!

My dog's favorite toy was the cat. He would chase it till the cat turned and took a swat at him. They would almost fall asleep looking at each other and the first one to close their eyes got pounced on by the other. The good thing was that neither was intent on hurting the other. Hard to believe that the dog passed away 42 years ago, but just writing this brings tears to my eyes.
Had a pair like that. He (dog) was mostly white, she (cat) was mostly black. If she found an open lower cabinet door, she'd lay in wait for him to go by. When he did, she'd smack him (never with claws out) and the chase would be on. It was not unusual to see a white blur chasing a black blur across the back yard, out of sight, then return with the black blur chasing the white blur. Fun stuff.

Those missles are extremely powerful. They fly fast and result in toadal destruction of the targets.

One of my former coworkers at the rocket ranch used to work for a while with the Orbiter Recovery Team that manned the different contingency landing sites in the US and around the world during Space Shuttle flights. As the result of his travels (or a mail bride), he ended up marrying a Russian redhead.
One time that he got assigned to White Sands N.M. to work at night for a flight, he decided to take his bride with him to see the sights during the day since she was still in awe with her new country. She was curious and asked him if NASA had any aliens in captivity in the area. Before he could answer, a still secret F-117 blasted past them really low. She could not believe what she saw. Then he replied "tonight its my turn to feed them..."

Please be careful. Saturday night I went to a Christmas party. I had a few beers, followed by a few cocktails, followed by a few shots. I still had the sense to know that I was over the limit. That's when I decided to do what I have never done before, I took a cab home.

Sure enough, there was a DUI Checkpoint on the way home, and since it was a cab, they waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident. This was both a great relief and a surprise because I had never driven a cab before. I don't even know where I got it from and, now that it is in my garage, I don't know what to do with it.
