Its not a baptism, its a blessing for animals on St. Francis's feast day. Think of it as a church sanctioned "Who art a good child? Is it thou? Is it thou?"

My dad quite literally ran over a dog on his test and passed because according to the instructor he made the right choice. My mum just had to drive the cop to the local pub and she passed. I have to have 50 hours driving experience over 9 months before I'm even allowed to try for the test.

How do they track that?

The hours not the months. Presumably you have the dates on an id card

Nahh, I'm older than most here and I think yeet is a good and useful word.

Like my wife and I were talking about how to stop rats from eating our cherry trees and I suggested some manner of trebuchet that could yeet them over the fence.

Just pronounce it in your head as 'practice' and it becomes perfectly serviceable.

Going to the Air & Space museum in DC and standing next to the exhibit where they put you in front of a scale replica (or was it real? idk) of one of those Thrusters was an incredibly humbling moment of my life.

And also slightly terrifying.

When I visited the Udvar-Hazy museum in Virginia, I was kinda blown away by the size of the shuttle itself. It's enormous. It's hard to get a sense of scale just by watching videos of it.

I was also amazed by the size of the SR-71 they had on display there. It was way smaller than I imagined it.

I know, right? It was one of the first aircraft I saw up close as a kid aside from little 4-seater Cessnas, and I was secretly a little bit disappointed at the time. I mean, it's not tiny, but it does feel shockingly small if you see it with the expectation that any military aircraft is going to be big and cool and awesome (I've since gotten over that disappointment, it's a really cool jet to see in person).
