The place was quite cold. Can that render guns inoperative? I did read without lubrication for their guns when the Germans faced winter the first time in Russia that sort of happened.

Those styrofoam rocks were expensive back in the 60s.

Saturday Night Live should do a skit where Indians and Chinese are beating the hell out of each other and suddenly, a FAT Chinese (or Indian) woman begins to sing and they all smile and shake hands and break it up.

Lol!

No pies? I don't know why but a pie in the face has always been humorous.

Disguised as a dry ancient creek bed. And no, there’s no gold to be found.

Cold? How Dare You. Nothing is cold anymore and there are no glah-see-rs either. Just ask grrrrreta. Surprised no one has called her in to help settle the dispute. After all, she apparently knows EVERYTHING. But yeah, some lubes get sluggish when it’s chilly.
