Re: So what are my school levy taxes going for?
Yep nuts ain't it?? Betty just went back to school today. Evidently the administration felt the need for everyone to come back to the building to do their ONLINE classes. No students arrive on-campus til Oct 3rd... although they are starting with the elementary grades very soon, then a "phase i...

Looking forward to seeing more from SpaceX... Maybe Boeing will get their *oops you said word #1 tog...

Re: “Freedom of worship is a command of God, not a privilege granted by the state.”
The very fact this is even an issue speaks volumes about just how "inalienable" our Constitutionally guaranteed freedoms are... "Shall NOT be infringed" and "shall NOT be abridged" has been replaced by "the gubmint giveth, and the gubmint taketh away"... Certa...

Well, her first mistake was talking to the cops AT ALL... let alone letting him in to "search for weapons"... Cops will ASK you for anything, but you have to be d@mn fool enough to ALLOW them to do it, well, you CONSENTED so they're covered. Tell 'em to p!ss off til they have a warrant is ...

Re: Kevlar String request
Yeah Jo-Anns is a good place... might try HobLob... it's getting harder to find, maybe online. Basically you can use ANY good solid COTTON thread... you don't want polyester or blends or other synthetics that can easily burn if a hot particle of BP from the ejection charge hits them... sort of a mil...

Re: NASA Astronauts Launch from America in Historic Test Flight of SpaceX Crew Dragon

Re: Kevlar String request
Hmmm... worth a try but honestly I wouldn't use kevlar for shroud lines... I mean what are you trying to protect them from??? If the parachute is exposed to enough heat to need kevlar shroud lines, the plastic sheeting of the parachute will melt into an undeployable "plastic wad" recovery ...
