HEADLINE...Bureau of Ordnance is taking over US COVID19 response from CDC. They claim a kilo of C4 can kill the virus if injected into the human body and detonated:-P
:salute:

They didn't test it so they have no way of knowing that the syringes are too small for the C4 and that the needles bend when in contact with the skin.Quote:

What, Huh? OK, in the US copping means to steal, or take without asking example; he copped a feel of Lucy's breast (oh those where the days). Anyway I got distracted. So if your grandad took a torpedo, how did he do that, why did he do that, what did he do with it,and where is it now???Quote:

As you said, one. There are many othersQuote:

His ship caught a torp, there we go. I don't think she enjoyed it either.
