    Karl Marx was known as a historically famous philosopher, but little is known or mentioned about his sister Onya, who invented the starting pistol......that's all folks.....

    The social media community just sounds like a drag, in my day seeing pictures of peoples vacations was considered a punishment.

    Sorry Des but, Karl Marx (1818-1883) did not really have a sister called “Onya Marx”

    ("on your marks,” as said at the start of a race).

    His three brothers Get, Set and Go ?

    I think it was 'Colt' who invented the finishing pistol!

    you can tell a lot about a woman’s mood just by her hands.
    For example, if she’s holding a gun, she’s probably angry.
