Re the Su27 with the sign plastered on the intake:
It reminded me of a story about the Canadian built CF 86 Sabre jets deployed in Europe in the '60s. On one exercise, a Canadian pilot was "strafing" a Belgian command post at low level. When he got back to base, he had part of the radio truck's antenna stuck in his wing root.

A little too close.

Sorry I can't find a link to the story, but it can be found (with gun camera images) in a book called The Canadair Sabres.

^Nice concept, but still not enough space unless using very thick shorty sticks.

And how does one break the rack?

Is there a way a filter can but put on this thread that if any picture that has already been posted can't be added again?

Just sayin'......for example, the 2nd pic of the lady with the bomb on her belly/having the baby is a different source file from the 1st one posted a week or two ago. So you can't rely on file name to filter.

Even if there were some kind of operation where a new picture was crashed against every single existing picture in the thread, it would take time to run and you could probably have a sandwich and a beer before the clearing routine was completed and your pic was uploaded. That would be more annoying then seeing a duplicate every so many pages.

From my perspective, this thread is just an addictive brain twinkie hang out that's a fun time kill. A duplicate does not bug me that much but everybody's different.

Here's a semi-random picture:

Nope, not easily.

There are two ways to post images, provide a link to an image already on the Internet or upload a document from your own machine to the Pelican servers.

You can upload the same image from your PC over and over and over again. And that seems reasonable since 10 of us could all have pics on our PC named "IMG_1251.jpg," "porsche.jpg," etc....

Glenn gets what must me hundreds of images on his computer, and uploads them. Unfortunately, he occasionally forgets what he's posted and over the course of a week or two may post the same image a time or two or three over the course of a few days.

Many/most of us have probably done it a time or two. I assume If one person has posted 1000 images, and other has posted 100 images and another has posted 10 images, then the guy that's posted 1000 may have more repeats, and the guy that's only posted 10 images may not have any.

I do post some repeats that I know I have seen before, but I go through photos fast, and I don't remember if it was one week ago, or one year ago. And many people only check the last page, and have never seen a photo the first time. It just takes a portion of a second to scroll to the next image, so just keep scrolling.

Ted Knight was something. Really good in the Mary Tyler Moore Show, too. He was on a different wavelength as the rest of the cast of Caddyshack, but it all came out good.

Years ago, I had an HP that would stop (in the middle of printing a multipage document) when it thought it ran out of toner.

I did get another HP printer after that (which I still have). On this one, in the settings, there's a box that you can check that allows you to keep printing when the toner runs low. I've been printing literally for years with the printer saying that it's low on toner. We don't print much any more though.
