    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I'd like to buy this judge a beer or two...

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/montana-men-military-veterans-writing-sentenced

    Two Montana men who wrongly claimed to be military veterans while trying to get more favorable sentences were ordered to prison last week — and neither inmate will be eligible for parole until they complete an assignment that includes hand-writing the names of all Americans killed in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

    Ryan Morris, 28, and Troy Nelson, 33, both claimed they were veterans as part of an effort to get their cases moved to a Veterans Court to receive lesser sentences.

    The two were sentenced Friday in Cascade County Court. Morris got 10 years in prison for violating the terms of his probation for felony burglary, while Nelson got five years on a drug possession conviction. Judge Greg Pinski suspended three years of each defendant’s sentence.

    Before either can be eligible for parole, however, Pinski ordered them both to handwrite the names of the 6,756 Americans killed in Iraq and Afghanistan; to write out the obituaries of the 40 Montanans killed in Iraq and Afghanistan; and send hand-written letters of apology to several veterans groups, making sure to identify themselves as having lied about military service to receive help and possibly a lesser sentence through a Veterans Court.

    In 2016, Morris claimed he had PTSD and that he did seven combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He also said he had his hip replaced after being injured by an improvised explosive device. Nelson reportedly got enrolled in Veterans Treatment Court before it was determined he didn't actually serve in the military.

    Morris and Nelson were also each ordered to perform 441 hours of community service — one hour for each Montanan killed in combat since the Korean War — with a veteran's organization.

    The judge also ordered that, during the suspended portions of their sentences, Morris and Nelson must stand at the Montana Veterans Memorial in Great Falls for eight hours on each Memorial Day and Veterans Day wearing a placard that says: “I am a liar. I am not a veteran. I stole valor. I have dishonored all veterans.”

    Additionally, Pinski made the men watch a video of a stolen valor suspect being confronted by a military member, according to KRTV. The judge said the sentences were punishment for lying to the court.

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    Oh, I'm sure it is bolted firmly in place...

    It’s the fuel source for the car. It runs on wood gas. Remember reading all about it over ten years ago.

    My brother was (C-5 FE) and he told me some stories. Visited Davis TDY for a week on a DARPA project, drove around and saw it all for myself. Never saw so many wanna be tough guys in my life - they have no clue what real adversity is but have to seem tough to their friends. Color didn’t enter into it - everyone was in some kind of group against everyone else. Unreal.

    Also never saw so many Civics with rear spoilers. Seriously? FWD, you idiots!

    Anyway, brother switched to C-130s as the only way to get his girls out of there before something bad happened. They moved back to Texas and all was right with the world (no teenage pregnancies).

    Brother in law said it well -- "With a son you just have to worry about one dick. With a daughter you have to worry about all of them." :dancingbacon::D

    THAT IS HIS EXACT SAYING!!! I have a son, he has two girls (both now married).

    "I envy you, man. You're not the only one in the house who can pee standing up."

    He has reported that since his girls moved out and on, all the shower drains in his house function normally.
