Love this Learning Thread DanielChase. For some Friday night fun (tonight!), Rocky Mountain PBS is airing a special on an awesome Colorado artist, Wayne Brungard, https://www.facebook.com/events/1457507521087513/?active_tab=discussion . It airs tonight on Denver Channel 6 at 7:30pm. Wayne is also a fellow cruiser head and had a 60 series for a long time before it rolled. He credits it with saving his wife and daughter. I may have a little cameo in the show tonight, I curated an exhibition with Wayne this past summer at the Emmanuel Art Gallery.

Not really anything educational per say but an HD video tour through one of the U.S. Navy's hospital ships. There are two of them, this is the USNS Mercy. They are very much floating hospitals, 1,000 beds is the maximum capacity although apparently it's typical they outfit for 250 to 500 at most.

She was launched in in 1975 as a super tanker SS Worth and refitted and recommissioned in 1986 as the Mercy. Perhaps @Stuckinthe80s can provide insight or details, at least in general terms since this is pretty different from his assignment in the Navy.

Educational, yes, but nothing better than gratuitous Land Cruiser porn.
These were freaking sweet good share! That green 45 around the 7:19 mark of the second video was extremely pornographic. Wondering if that was a factory color?:unsure:

I liked the snow driving part, I guess in Australia if the Land Cruiser can't through that means the road is closed.:lmao:

Yeah, I'm not sure about that color, either. Looks pretty kickass with Uluru in the background though! Also, I don't disagree with that criteria for closing a road!

Johnathan Ward interview on Joe Rogan. I haven't listened to it yet, but I bet it is a really good interview. I will listen to it later tonight and update.


I can't seem to get more than a half hour into these podcast with Jonathan Ward. I enjoy his builds and such, but ....
