From San Antonio, Texas;

The burglar, dressed in all black, broke into the home in the 400 block of Millwood Lane around 9:30 a.m. He entered through the garage and then forced his way into the kitchen, where he encountered the homeowner, police said.

175 Long Tom is all dialed in. Beehive round with “Name Scrabble (Home Version)” chalked on the side is sitting on the loading cradle.

Just waiting for Call For Fire from the FDC.

Out.

Derrick Keyvon Cureton

Roger. Round On The Way:

For those playing Name Scrabble (Home Version) the points awarded for Derrick Keyvon Cureton (DRT) are 39 x 3 for a whopping total of 117.

Out.

Yeah, Yeah, I know it was sarcasm and before some of you out there start beating on me and saying he don’t know what he’s talking about and there’s no such thing as a 175mm Beehive round, that the largest APERS-T round produced by the US was for the 152mm tube on a Sheridan, just remember I was only a lowly, lowly motor pool parts clerk and supply Sergeant in Mechanized M113 Infantry outfits./smile

I’m still trying to parse the guy in Texas who got shot at, then came back and argued with the guy who shot at him??? He didn’t think it was right for him to get shot at while running away???

Graybeard

It’s the drugs.

Dollars to donuts.

CCO

Yeah, probably so.

David

yeah, I noticed that too…anyone who gets shot at and then returns to argue the point is definitely splashing around in the shallow end of the gene pool.
