While I haven't been following the Olympics that closely this time, I can't help but notice that the US didn't gain a single medal in shooting.

Could it be because pulling a hillbilly mad minute with your AR-15 from your back porch doesn't develop the fine motor skills needed for competitive shooting?

Asking for a friend.

Let us know who knocks on your door, how many of them there are at both your front and back door, and how early in the morning they knock, within a few days of its arrival.
I’ll put the coffee on!
As long as they don’t come through the roof!!!
 
Keep checking your bank accounts. You'll know that company is coming soon after they're frozen.

And make sure that your drapes are flame-retardant, because flash-bangs.
 
Even more interesting is this book which at one time was banned in Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/Anarchist-Cookbook-William-Powell/dp/1684111374

A member of T Coy 4 RCR found a copy in Fanfare Books in Stratford in the mid-1970s, bought it, and showed it around to other members, many of whom ordered copies for themselves, and possibly for Christmas gifts. The two sweet-little-old-ladies who ran the shop became curious about why so many virile non-hippy-looking young men were ordering this particular book about culinary arts, so, shortly after the twenty-something copies arrived, they opened one and were quickly traumatized. Only two guys managed to collect their copies before the rest were shipped back.

The only recipe that I remember was in the drug section. It was fairly simple: Buy thirty pounds of bananas. Eat the bananas. Wrap the skins in tin foil and bake in the oven at something-low-F for a few days then grind into a fine powder. I don't recall whether that was to be smoked, snorted, or something else.

There's a recipe for thermite in it - some enterprising youngsters in my Gr 11 class approached the chem teacher known to have been hired more to coach rugby than teach chemistry...it's pretty simple actually, just rust up some nails, scrape it off and bake it. Get some together and use something hot to cook it off - magnesium strip was a suggestion IIRC. Well, the other issue with this dude is he almost blew up/burned down the lab more than once - tossed 8 oz of raw sodium into a bucket of water and it didn't just burst into flames, it detonated and tattooed water marks into the ceiling...he also was showing flammability of different hydrocarbons in organics one day, dish of octane spilled, while lit, over the bench and he tried putting it out with water...anyway, he offered to cook the thermite off with some raw phosphorus in lieu of the magnesium 🍿(y):rolleyes:...in the class...on the bench. Thankfully someone thought that this was a bad idea and terminated it prior to enacting it...
