give that IT guy a beer.


I'd rather kick him in the head, looking at bikes and cars is not a bad thing it's not like I'm looking at tits. Besides do you know how difficult it is to look up things on the NET when vehicles are blocked by the firewall especially when you work for an aerospace company!

So, does that have anything to do with Chicken Cannons?

In case you didn't know or hadn't figured it out, I'm employed by the aerospace industry, too.
I'm an Airworthiness Inspector for Boeing. Currently working on 777's, but have worked 737, 747, 757 & 767 programs, too.

We used to do those kinds of tests up here at the Tulalip Test Site, but they sold all that stuff off and closed the site ~10-15 years ago... there's an Indian Casino there now.

Never had to deal with the purposeful testing, but have been involved in dealing with the aftermath of real world incidents.

Probably not, but the parts of bird that stick to the cooler parts don't smell so great.
