Just remember you have to marinade older dogs. If you stick with puppies you
shouldn't have any problem.

You have GOT to be kidding. With this bunch? You must have gone to medical
school to become an optimist.

says...

an eighth aluminium plate
about 6" diameter
8mm rod
about 120 degrees
about 4 1/2" PCD
about a cubit long.

What's that in furlongs?

Actually nowadays furlongs are only used in horse racing and measuring
velocity. A standard velocity would be in furlongs per fornight.

a cubit is actually a handy measurement. It is the length of your arm
from elbow to tip of longest finger. use it all the time for
guestimating things. =18"

A 20th century example of the same sort of confusion was solved by
Stalin. He'd been invited to attend a demonstration firing of the new
120 mm artillery rocket, but when the soldiers opened the ammo case,
it contained 120 mm howitzer shells. Stalin then ordered that the
official designation of ammunition caliber be unique. Those rockets,
for instance, might be designated 121 mm despite their being 120 mm
across.

And of course a .357 and a .38 are the same diameter.

Unless the .38 is a .38-40
