TIL that 2 stroke power band is a real thing.
How many stitches?
And the answer if you're playing along at home is 3.

TIL that the infamous Suzuki TM400 Cyclone is not, in actual fact, the hairiest, sketchiest, meanest two-stroke to ever ring a ding.
I had no idea.

Glad you'll be OK.
How much for the wheels?
TIL some collector just liquidated a collection of about 100 Honda 3 wheelers, and one unit is still in the box! Instantly got a $200,000 offer.
TIL: Apparently the bracket that holds down the controller or whatever for the spider injectors on a Chevy 350 is supposed to be loose. I guess the upper plenum holds it in place so it doesn't rattle itself to death?
TIL that the Norden bombsight comprised 10% of the cost of a new B-17.
According to the source, the Norden cost about $25,000 and the entire aircraft cost a little under $240,000.
The doctor asked me if I was allergic to formaldehyde.
That's... an odd thing to have to worry about.

Wasn't it also basically an analog computer that could be clutched in to the flight controls, so the bombardier was actually the one flying the plane for a short while?
In reply to Pete. (l33t FS) :
Yes, on the actual bombing run, the pilot was hands off and the bombardier was making trim adjustments to match the aiming point.
My father had a Norden that he had scavenged while in the AF during the '50s, well after they were obsolete. It was in a box in the basement and one day in the 1970s my mother threw it out for reasons unknown. That was a pretty bitter argument.

I know that your news sources may appear to be great but maybe some sources more main stream American might give you a better balance. That's all I got to say about that.
How about Stacey David, guy with a car show? He did a Jeep over and it had a newer type grille as on the 2nd vehicle. He pulled all the chrome off and the sheet metal is still stamped from the old die so already set for the older type, 1st vehicle, to bolt on.

That vid is inaccurate. The source is questionable as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Tang_Dynasty_Television
