This guy is getting a ticket. Likely for no emission controls.







On February 17, 1864, The Confederate submarine, HL Hunley, attacked and sank the 1240-short ton (1124 metric tons) screw sloop USS Housatonic, which had been on Union blockade-duty in Charleston's outer harbor. Soon afterwards, the Hunley sank, killing all eight of her third crew. This time, the ship was lost.
Finally located in 1995, the Hunley was raised in 2000 and is on display in North Charleston, South Carolina, at the Warren Lasch Conservation Center on the Cooper River. Examination, in 2012, of recovered Hunley artifacts suggests that the submarine was as close as 20 feet to her target, the Housatonic, when her deployed torpedo exploded, which eventually caused the sub's own loss.

When the hand-cranked Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley torpedoed the mighty USS Housatonic in Charleston Harbor on February 17, 1864, it didn’t change the course of the Civil War, but by becoming the first combat submarine to sink an enemy warship, it altered naval warfare forever.

I’ve seen the Hunley. I would not like to have been aboard, as it sank at least two times, before its final demise.

wideboobie? You guys have major issues. (for you depraved bastards, Hitomi Tanaka)

craigster59's pic of the chicken fried steak wins the day. Went to Lulu's Bakery and Cafe in San Antonio and they brought me a "steak" that big. Man vs Food show turned me on to it.
