We get plenty oysters here in Chesapeake Bay Country. I don't eat them raw myself, but I'm pretty sure you aren't supposed to chew them like she did. Ed
I ate a raw one once in my life. It tasted like what I imagine biting into a huge ball of snot would be like. I do like battered deep fried ones, although they're a little chewy.
#5 We were doing some contract work at a plant on the SC coast that had a small, maybe 5 foot, gator living in a retention pond. Due to employees there tossing food to it, when ever it saw humans it would come up on the bank looking for a handout. Black guy on the electricians crew had it come up towards him and I think he made it back into the plant 100 feet away in about 2.8 seconds.
During a hurricane, I had a tree try to do it. Back and forth, back and forth, it'd suck water in one way, pump it out the other way, each time leaning closer and closer to the house. So there I was, with Mr. Chainsaw, cutting roots as they were exposed on the house side. Finally that tree fell away from the house.
That cow would be learning a valuable lesson, too, courtesy of a shovel upside the head about a half dozen times. I wouldn’t beat it to death, but I’d beat it until it wished it was dead.
#3: Nothing remotely like this existed when I was that age. I remember having a little red car that I had to peddle myself and it was basically impossible to move.
#7 - Had that happen to my 50+ year old beech tree last year. Took out a fence but, thankfully, nobody was near it and it fell "the right way" so it didn't hit my house nor my neighbor's house.
I lost a fir that way a few years ago. Cut the fence and across the street, just barely missing the fence on the other side. Kept all 20 of my neighbors from getting to work that day. Got a brand-new Stihl out of it.
#2 Someone had lots of time on his hands #10 I think that could be made in a home machine shop. Mr Gatling didn't have half the machine tools available to him that you can be bought today. Whoever made the animation didn't include a breech locking mechanism but if you were to start with an AR15 bolt carrier group and barrel...... Al_in_Ottawa
My friend the doctor ask me if AR stood for assault rifle, I told him no, an assault rifle is any rifle that you assault someone with, AR stands for armalite.
Raw oyster. Yep.
ReplyDeleteOysters, I understand
DeleteWaste of a perfectly delicious oyster.

#1 Hello
ReplyDelete#2 too much time on his hands.

ReplyDeleteWhat caliber is the Gattling Gun? That bottleneck case with a short neck has me stumped.
@Elmo: Most closely resembles a beltless .300WinMag, but is probably some generic mock-up for the animation.
DeleteEd
You're probably right. Just an animation created to make people like us drool.
DeleteNeat thing about a hand-cranked gatling is that each barrel is a separate semi-auto rifle. Perfectly safe without a tax stamp.
DeleteHook it up to an electric motor and you're as toast as the target.
Catlike reflexes. Stuck the landing, so to speak.
ReplyDelete#5 Run Forrest, run.
ReplyDelete3 is pretty cool, 4 will make a mess of your lap and 10 is just sheer awesomeness.

ReplyDelete#1 brahma crosses. OhHellno.
ReplyDeleteGuy learned a valuable lesson right there.
DeleteShould have learned it before he got right there.

Delete#2 is oddly relaxing to watch

#4: Yeah...lemme just fry that up real quick.
#7: Cleanup's gonna suck.
#3, just coming to say the same.
DeleteKid's well trained - lowers the load before moving.
He's a good little operator with a happy, friendly attitude. Just the kind of guy you look forward to loading/unloading your truck.
DeleteWith a tip o' the hat to the two gals running lifts at Snider Lumber Products, Turlock, California, circa 1980. They were the best.
The kid's a better forklift driver than some real forklift drivers that I have worked with in the past.
DeleteI've seen a lot of "women eating raw oyster" videos and they are great !!!!!!

ReplyDelete# 4 is definitely a spitter and not a swallower
