At a Garage Sale. Trying to figure out what it is before I turn it into a coffee table base.

I found this really old, wooden item at a garage sale the other day. It's about five feet long, and the guy who owned it (who used to run an antique store) had no idea what it was either. It's got two metal thread plates on each side, which makes me think it might have been attached to something. My first guess was maybe some kind of old trough with eyelets to tie animals to, but that just doesn't feel right. Before I turn this into an coffee table base (that's my current plan) I'm genuinely so curious about its original purpose. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any old farm equipment experts or antique gurus out there who can shed some light? #HelpNeeded #WhatIsIt #Woodworking #OldStuff #DIYProjects

Anyone else see that unmarked 747 landing at O’Hare today? What’s going on?

I’m not the kind of guy who jumps to conclusions, but this one gave me pause. A fully unmarked Boeing 747 just landed at O’Hare this afternoon — no airline logo, no tail numbers I could see, nothing. Looked almost like a ghost plane. I’ve lived near Chicago for 30 years, and I can’t remember seeing anything like that before. Normally, you can tell where a plane’s from, or at least see some ID. But this one? Completely blank. I’m not trying to stir up rumors, but shouldn’t there be some level of transparency about aircraft flying in and out of one of the biggest airports in the country? With everything going on these days — border issues, government flights, who knows what else — it just makes you wonder. Anybody else catch it or know what’s behind this? #NeedHelp #WhatIsIt #Safety
