Muffy! Drop the remote, get off the couch and tell Jake to crank up the drumroll CD -- we've got a coupl'a Whatziss Whiners Winners.
Jake! That's *not* a frisbee! Wipe it off and stick it in the boombox -- oh, yuck. Where'd you get the maple syrup, anyway?
So much for presentation...
Anyway, something interesting's cropped up. The Museum guys labeled this 57mm jobbie an M1A1.
Yup, the US copy of the Brit gun. Chris figgered it out, but John and Sanger both went deeper and spotted something else.
That caster wheel on the trail means it's an M2 -- which means it's misidentified in the Museum.
That's what happens when the Artillery expert is a retired tanker, I guess...
But M1A1 or A3 or M2, they're all pretty adept at demonstrating why you don't see knights in full plate gallivanting over the battlefield anymore:
Speaking of real reasons, here's why John's been so anxious to stick I-beams in the kitchen ceiling. Don't tell SWWBO. It's supposed to be a surprise...
But I digress. Let the Great Rolling Whatziss Contest continue!
Give it a shot. No, Mags, it's *not* a weapon, so you don't have any excuse...
Heh. Hogtie PG-17C -- this ought'a be good...
