Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

Hey, lay off of Brian24...he posted a very decent post explaining where he was coming from but also acknowledging that these threads are different things to different people. Issue is resolved.

Looks like flying worms on the BagCam. ~ Consort

I See it too. WHAT THE HECK IS THAT???? ~ Warren_Piece

Roswell Rods, see Art Bell...

[SoldiersGirl]

Someone sent it to me in my e-mail. I thought you all might enjoy it.

[PrivateIdaho]

Just watch out where the huskies go and don't you eat that yellow snow!

[Nam Vet]

Mesopetamia has marshlands naturally. Lots of bugs. Also a very high water table.

Fantastic Story, soldiergirl. Where do we find these men? And where do we find the men that develop this technology? Just awesome.

If America wanted to rule the world-- who would stop us?

Good thing for the world we have these weapons and not others.

We wage War only to secure peace. We secure our Great Nation by removing despicable tyrants who wish us Evil, by liberating the oppressed peoples, by rebuilding their economies so they can compete with us, and then go home.

Oh yeah, I forgot. Then we get called names by people who know better. Even in our own country.

America is the best thing that ever happened to this World. Long Live America!

hmmm...do i smell a 70-80 alternative music fan in the room?? lol

[null and void]

A little too much Art Bell?

*looking VERY innocent* There is such a thing???

[Catspaw]

According to weather history in this area (Green Bay WI), it's snowed in every month but August. I can attest to it snowing on May 10 about six years ago (our wedding anniversary), a snow which knocked all the blossoms off our pear trees. Instead of the usual bushel of pears per tree, we ended up with three (3) pears that year.

And my hubby's uncle lives in International Falls, Minnesota. He thinks we're a bunch of southern crybabies.

[Rokke]

Nope. No prayer calls on CBS Bagcam. There is also what sounds like rounds being chambered and dogs barking.

[TonyInOhio]

I wouldn't eat raisins either!

Reminds me of the old saying:

"Never assume it's a raisin."

Let's just say I did some "experimentation" during my college years.

[retrokitten]

True and there are palm trees and vegetation around. Okay, a bat definately flew by the bag cam just now. There's no mistaking them when they fly.

At the Brookfield Zoo here in IL they have this one house called, Australia House. There are all kinds of animals in there that are found in Australia (obviously). Seems innocent enough, right? WRONG! After seeing the cute animals like the wombats and wallabees there is a second room where there are LOOSE BATS FLYING around! I am totally serious. The zoo people tell you, "Oh don't worry, they can't hurt you!" Screw that. I went in there one time and I nearly had a panic attack!

Booms on Bag Cam?

[Typelouder]

It is "historical fiction." I did a google search on Demerly, it lead me to this site:

http://www.bikesportmichigan.com/editorials/0000027.shtml

I was impressed with the article as well, but couldn't believe that the details of such a mission would've been made public.

[Carolina]

Big Boom on Bag Cam!

[Poser]

You mean I'll get a legal chance at 4,000 tonight. It sure looks like I will at this point. Somebody else might even get a chance at 5,000.

[knak]

was that a boom I heard

[SoldiersGirl]

I assumed it was only fiction, but well written enough to make me stop and think about those guys.

[ztiworoh]

Yep, just heard a second
