Metting her at baggage claim.

Yah... at Sea-Tac that's the only place you can get into. You'll want to park in 'hourly' parking. Endlessly circling ain't what it used to be. But parking should only be maybe five bucks, and it's probably worth it.

I'm just relieved for you. And if the horse-sitter is looking forward to it too, it's a win-win situation!

Sounds like we'll miss each other by some minutes. I'll be there about 8ish, but my flight boards about 9:30, and I'll be way up at the North terminal. You'll be somewhere around the A or D terminal for Southwest, I think.

Yeah - I'm gonna go in and meet her... we've never met so the drive by pickup isn't good for recognizing a new face :~D

A couple guys on the thread were talking about Dragon's Breath rounds...such a thing sounds like fun, if you don't set the front lawn on fire. 300winmag probably knows about those things.

I've seen videos of "dragon's breath", but I don't think it has the sticking power of something like napalm. I prefer flechettes. Damn shame there are no scimitar shotshells left. Those were basically a stack of razor blades inside the shot cup.

"Dragon's breath" has nothing on a little trick they invented for the 175mm gun in Vietnam. For direct fire, they didn't even use a projectile. The powder charge is five feet long, and they's soak every increment except the base in diesel fuel. The flame was 300 meters long. And except for a bit of soot, it left the bore nice and clean.

I have very strict rules about drinking and using firearms. Just don't do it. Problem is, it's harder to enforce the rules after about the fourth bourbon.

*grin* I won't bring up WeddingMoot then.

Although, I did wonder what your reaction would have been if one of those guns had actually shot a hole through the floor when you test-fired them.

That would be why they were pointed at the floor. :-)

*shakes head* Pure madness that.

Alyson has mastered getting out of the crib and has escaped her prison at least a dozen times since I've been online.

Drastic measures must now be taken, so I've gotta sign off and turn out every light in the house so I bore her to sleep. *grin*

See you tomorrow! Good night everyone!
