Topix Underground

It just occurred to me that planting 300 plants into the ground is probably a full day of in-the-sun chain-gang-like labor that I have to follow through on lest my entire existence be rendered pointless.

...Se habla Espanol and so forth.

"30 years ago today on May 17, 1995, Army veteran Shawn Nelson managed to steal an M60A3 tank and go on a 6 mile rampage through San Diego, CA.

Nelson was a local celebrity before the incident.

He was known for mowing his lawn in the middle of the night and also dug a 20 foot pit in his backyard looking for gold.

On the evening of May 17, 1995, Nelson drove his truck and parked at the local California Army National Guard armory.

He then started breaking locks on the tanks before hopping inside the 60 ton tank.

For the next 30 minutes, Nelson damaged bridges, fire hydrants, traffic lights, destroyed 40 cars, and left 5100 households with no electricity.

Not a single person was injured.

After becoming stuck, San Diego police climbed on top the tank, opened the hatch and shot and killed Nelson."



I would have hired him to do plumbing. He seems mechanically inclined.

I don't know why he did not lock the hatch.

The tank guy was an everyman. We were rooting for him.

I bought this little grill several years ago. I haven't used it much but it's all I need. I can keep it in the garage so it's clean. It runs on a cylinder like  for a little soldering torch.

Got a George Foreman grill pretty much use it every week.

That's a near death experience right there...😜

I use potatoes, not eggplant.

When you turn around, you see that.

Homeless shelter? 🤔

Columbo’s about class struggle.

Apparently he only investigated rich people who were murderers. No drive-bys.
