I would say the P47 was. 8 50cals plus bombs/rockets for ground attack. And could take a ton of damage and make it home.

Said rock would have to be traveling with quite some velocity. On the side of the truck, was there an explosion or something?

The hole in the guy's door from a mower could check out if it was an aluminum door. Steel door idk.

Friend if my grandma's in florida had a boat and we went and watched fireworks one year. They shoot them over the water so be prepared for firework ash to fall on you.

Also same boat, one of the scariest times if my life. The boat was a 17' typical ski boat. Not a wake board boat. Open front, inboard outboard deal. Going out the Ft Pierce inlet from the intercoastal to the ocean. Definitely not enough boat and with like 5 or 6 people in it probably maxed out. Turned around mostly on the face of a wave and went back to the intercoastal. If we continued it def would be a halover inlet fail situation.

If I have to go and see the downtown fireworks I watch them from the port Allen side.

I took a tour of it when it stopped here.

I think pilots were initially afraid to bail out due to the chance to hit the tail. The story goes Bob Hoover talked the guys into kicking off the control stick when leaving which greatly lessened the chance of getting hit by the tail. I don't know if that's a true story or not.

Box was so big i couldn't fit a single thing in the trunk other than the speakers

Early 90's if the speaker specs gave a min box volume or larger range. The "or larger" is the one you wanted.

Sums up a lot of municipality attitudes.

In BTR, storm and had the flash and bang effect at the same time. Went out the front door and several folks were out looking around and you could smell the pine in the air. Big pine tree in neighbors yard was hit. Killed half my shop lights and a radio but didn't trip a breaker. Tree died over the next year. Luckily the neighbor cut the pines down

I think Jeremy Foley is the guy's name who sent that BMW off the side to about a hundred foot drop before it impacted. Really pretty incredible how hard a hit those cars can take and for the most part folks are ok. Some exceptions in there.

My dog aligns herself with the street. Cause that's the way we are walking.

And the magnetic field must be fubard in my yard cause she faces all different directions when she does her business.
