#1 all rounds were on target

Giving Chinese journalism too much credit, but 'all' and 'rounds' makes me think artillery rather than bombs, missiles, or machined guns. Spectre?

#2 Did you see the bride's gown? Simply stunning! It didn't go well with her beard and Adam's apple, though.

#3 Had to cash a check in Louisiana to get back to Colorado last week, so we visited Barksdale AFB. Barksdale is home to a wing of B-52H aircraft. Had one pass about 500 feet over our heads as we neared the base. STILL love that A/C. Would love to see the entire wing at Barksdale make a round trip to Rawalpindi/Islamabad armed with tons of weapons on the flight out, and return empty. Just to show Pakistan we can do it.
