I'd far prefer to have that on my resume than From Dusk 'Til Dawn, but Señor Larriva has both.

Per More Bad Days in History by Michael Farquhar: The name "tank" arose from the extreme secrecy surrounding the development of this new war machine, which was initially disguised to resemble a water tank.

And at first you might think, "Who the fuck would even fall for that?" But consider the situation in the frontline trenches in 1916. Think about the parasite-infested ditch-water the soldiers out there increasingly found themselves having to drink as it grew harder and harder to traverse the shell-pocked, machine-gun-swept ground around the frontlines with normal vehicles or even trains of mules. A several-hundred-gallon tank built into a giant, bulletproof tractor starts sounding like an extremely plausible way to get dysentery-free water up to the troops under those conditions, doesn't it? |

I just found out from a postal contact that Joe Dellasandro was born down here in P'cola. That's wild.

Impossible conjecture. For one thing, the one body was found 25 "minuets" away from the other two lol. |

I've long known that shrews had outlandishly fast metabolisms and correspondingly prodigious appetites, but only a few minutes ago did I learn that they can starve to death in a matter of hours!
