Yes, I'm totally safe now! What a stinkin' load. Like it would really take that much longer to do damage from 3,500 than 3,000. ARRRGH. The TSA is pointless!

diverdriver 7 #2 March 18, 2003 Yah, but what they don't tell you is that if you stray too close to Disneyland the [quotation fingers] Laser show [/QF] will open fire on any offending aircraft. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #3 March 18, 2003 You should see the air-launch fireworks facility. Looks pretty impressive if you don't know what the hell it is, but again, it's just for launching fireworks. Computerised air cannons that can precision launch fireworks up to 1,000 ft. Look like A-A guns. Ok, they're painted bright yellow, but other than that.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And you might be surprised by this but it's a little known fact that the ALFF was a spin off from the velcro invention.[/cliff claven] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #5 March 18, 2003 Actually, it is called ALF. Hey, wait a minute . . . we're you mocking me? Cliff Claven indeed. Anyway, back to the whole point here. I wonder if Mr. Eisner gave Mr. Bush a phone call today. Something along the lines of; EISNER: "Ah, George." BUSH: "Yea, whazzup. I'm pretty busy here making it look like we're doing something about the father, um, I mean the, uh, homeland security." EISNER: "Well, that's what I wanted to talk to you about. This whole war thing. It's cutting into my profits. People don't want to go visit targets until after they've been destroyed." BUSH: "I think I can help you with that. I can give you the illusion of safety for now, but still keep the option open for terrorist to make your Magic Kingdoms the high volume tourist memorials they could be after this is all over. Lesse, 3 nm and 3,000 feet ought to do it. The average person will think that's an impenetrable shield, but it'll do absolutely nothing to deter terrorists."quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverdriver 7 #6 March 18, 2003 I'm on a mission to hi-jack as many threads today as possible. Too much stress around these days. I'm not saying my head is in the sand but I'm just trying to make some people smile a bit. Yes Buzz Lightyear, I've been mocking you! LOL [Cliff Claven] Yah, and another thing. The US postal carrier is one of the most physically fit individuals on the planet. I haven't been bit by a dog in like days I'm so fast.[/cliff claven] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
