My favorite tree taken just now), maybe 50' now, <30 years old.
Some of these in eastern NC were around several centuries BCE. Knees are both cool and annoying in your yard.

I occasionally hear gunshots but assume they're from an outdoor shooting range. If you look up the event you'll read/hear that it was a shootout between customers after one raged at that cashier over a turkey deal.

The usual BS. Same Bat-Time, same Bat-Channel.

My recent rants are all about the seriously fugly black 5G towers we have similar to this. Surely we could let Kindergarteners decorate them.

Just finished watching a Great Courses series on US history. Professor Allitt went through about 2001. He wrapped up with a summary. Here he mentions a few advantages of the US system. Were he to add another chapter I think the summary would be quite different.

Then a nearly 400 cubic inch Corvair-derived flat 12, turbocharged, could easily be good for 430hp, beating even the big block rats up until the later 60s. Should've been tried in the Corvette XP-895 prototype as an alternative to the monster 4 rotor Wankel.

Parked next to this beauty at a recent C&C. Wow!

Did your Corvair come with a spare outboard engine?

I was unaware of this until a recent trip through Elizabeth City and that area of NC. 1677... colonists started reacting to British government nastiness earlier than I realized.
