    I couldn't think of anywhere better to post this photo of some unusual kit. Source unknown.

    I think it is from a little known Monty Python sketch.

    Looks to me as if someone got into the schnapps a little early on New Year's Eve. Good thing the outhouse isn't too far away.

    After having a mishap with schnapps in my youth, I never drink the stuff. Now I know why.


    There's the photo this guy probably hoped would never, ever see the light of day. One can only imagine what this was all about.

    Hmm, the boots aren't right and the helmet is a WWI M-17 model. Maybe a 1930s picture?

    I had a bad experience with tequila in my younger days. Not only did I lose 12 hours of my life, but it completely ruined margaritas for me.

    The kitten looks like a Kt. 35A, going by the shape of the ears.
