1 Now all that is left is to hide them for a complete E.A. Poe effect. =D

2 I think for that you need half a bottle of cognac, and I don't drink.

3 I got that picture right on a somewhat educated, but mostly lucky guess. My problem with history is more after WWII, as that is when I opted out of the course.

Though in the case of pictures like these, I think it's more a matter of general knowledge than history.

Extra points for those who know that Joe Rosenthal took the photo - which was a slam-dunk for me.  Then again, I can determine a plain, vanilla M4 Sherman and the 'Easy-Eight' version too, among other challenges (Like the http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2010/03/12/weird-weapons-gallery/ .), so I might not be typical.

I really like the discounts on candy following important candy holidays - buying them in the wake of holidays like Halloween can net me a large enough horde of Snickers or Kit Katto last for half a year or so...
