If and when you get the Huey flying I want to see a picture or two! I'm trying to think of the feature that would weaken it... I could see a rouge surfboard might spoil your day...

In the movie they carried the surfboards on the slicks, not on the gunships. The weapons are in the way, but I tried. I recycled the surfboard for another modeller who was building a slick and printed them at a smaller scale for him.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Ahhh, the Horns & Speaker for the Wagner effect, thinking back weren't they a slick thing too. Or is it the weaponry...

Look . [^]. There is not much room for surfboards or speakers between the skids and the M157 rocket launcher and the skids.

Ah! POETS day!
Whatever happened to that? It seems to have gone the same way as lunchtime beers.

A group of us went over to the Pub one Friday and the 'elf & safety guy Breathalysed one of us (he passed somehow!). The company has a zero alcohol policy, the parent wing is in the building trade and hate to think of the mess you make with Cement Mixer or a Boom Crane... however when you are debugging traffic control code and hardware

That's becoming ever more common 
The argument seems to be "you never know when someone will have to visit the construction site" but the reality is that you know full well who might have to and it ain't going to be the software development team.
A zero-level policy if it were actually to be rigidly enforced (blood tests in the morning etc.) would probably result in the vast majority of the work-force being fired but obviously that's never going to happen. Boxes need to be ticked, though, so they just put every member of staff's job in permanent jeopardy.

Never! if they need us on a building site we are lightly to be more of hazard. I mean how much use would I (or We) be if you are having to compile firmware images and fault find circuit boards on a building site something has gone very wrong!

I had my internet upgraded to fiber yesterday. Now I have 1 Gbs speed that is awesome, but I have to reset all my WiFi passwords.

It's always pings and roundabouts, I guess.

The last time I drove in London, don't worry, I have no plans to do it again,
Roundabouts were the most confusing thing I encountered. I swear they must have a black hole in the center of them. After about 5 trips around, I think I must have crossed the event horizon, then , all of a sudden, I popped out again.

I've heard they tend to confuse americans.
Think of them as "traffic lights where you can turn right on red if it's clear" and then swap the sides of the road. They can work a lot more effectively than lights, if designed right.

That really depends on the route you plan to take. If you plan to finger or something, then of course yes.
But it is a *nix network command. OK, OK, off I go. I'll get my coat. Crap, I don't even wear a coat.
