Hell, Juan missed Stinko De Mayo by months. The same for the Fourth of July.

Maybe he wants to celebrate Columbus Day(’s of Rage).

A member of Mexico’s Olympic shooting team?

I have no idea but ....

Can’t quite make out the selector, but that little dot back toward the shooter might be full auto. Really hard to tell from that view. As for what he might want to use them for, well, I know when I’m playing Monopoly with my friends one of them always takes the battleship and another gets the racing car and I’m left with a wimpy thimble if I don’t provide my own...

well, I guess it is better than the man who knew two English words and became the most respected man in his Greek town because of it. Some tourist had said it to him.
It was ...”Sha tap”.

Why can't posters realize that simply saying "Elgin" could be anywhere?

Absolutely correct, and it does annoy me when I click on something with half a place name!

Now all I have to do is remember this problem!

We called those `ashcans.’ Around the 4th dropped them in 55 gallon steel drums for trash burning.
Whooompf! Column of ashes.

But then again, it’s Illinois where incompetence is the norm.

Hey! I resemble that comment!

Is that some form of microaggression?

I live in the area, the frags thing, has me concerned?

Most have the wrong view of what they can do.

Some think it will take out a tank; no. They would just piss off the TC cause you scorched his tank, he will get you.

Others think they are fat M-80’s.

Me, I know what they are good for.
Unscrew the detonator, use a church key to pop off the bottom, scratch the Comp-B and light it with your Zippo.
It will heat up a five gallon bucket of water for a quick shower!!!

here is a google map of the storage area. It’s not too far from the tollway I-90 (Jane Addams) and across the street from a fire station.
