Gas? As fast as it's been dropping in price, I was hoping they would get to the point where they pay me to take it.

The first and last time I slept in a tent was in 1957 in basic training
in San Antonio.

Air Force, right?

I guess now we're stockpiling gas.

Hey, I’ve seen that before.

Hey, I’ve seen that before.

Looks a lot like the view (in 1971-72) from the west edge of Sonora, looking west on the new IH10. I got police radar demonstrated to me from that site, clocking a car on the western horizon.

Looks like 2-2IN (S) out of Ft Lewis, WA sending their stuff to either NTC rotation at Ft Irwin (Barstow) or Pacific Pathways.

Yeah, people are trying to scare people with videos like that. It's not the first time the armed services have sent vehicles by rail, and it won't be the last. Get me a video of them offloading and heading into a city, then I'll believe that crap.

At Ft Hood years ago we sent them by rail to Ft Sill because we didn’t think they could make it in a single convoy on the road a couple of hundred miles.

Rail is faster and cheaper to get equipment anywhere in the CONUS. Also, Strykers require a DOT waiver to operate on civilian roads; even though they are only 36k-40k lbs, it has to do with weight distribution of the single wheel axles.

Heck, I thought it was the unveiling of the new & improved Zilker Zephyr miniature RR at Barton Sprgs in Austin.
