Sweet Killer Turret

Didn't I see this awesome bit of military tech in Half Life 2? I could see this being one hell of a good anti-burlarly deterent.

Thanks to Vlad for digging this one up.

A Little Air Travel Poem

After 4 days spent on as many flight and doing time in 5 different airports (including all 3 NYC area airports), I've decided to write an acrostic poem to commemorate my favorite combination of airline and airport - DELTA at JFK. Enjoy:

D is for abundant Delays and utter Disorganization

E is for Empty promises to clueless passengers being ignored by your Employees

L is for Long Lines from ticketing to security, and even at the food court

T is for Tremednous Time wasted at every Turn

A is for Apathetic Attitudes on display by everyone working at their airport

(at)

J is for Jams from the runways to the gates

F is for Forgetting about making your meeting on time, because you're Far too delayed for that

K is for Kicking me figuratively in the groin at every possible moment
