That's like a fully formed soundbite! Can I use it? :)

It's still interesting to watch how it plays out in the street. Also, the eagle has some pretty precise notions about what it does not want to happen here, but I don't think they care very much as long as those things don't happen. Which means there will be a power vacuum and an opportunity for some devoted and truly patriotic band of unfortunates to step up. Doubt that it will happen, though. A pity. For a long time I've been saying that everyone with the sense to fix this little clusterfuck of a country has far better things to do.

Today's modding adventure - death by physics.

To be precise, I killed a dragon in mid-flight.  Unfortunately, it's flight trajectory took it directly into the path of my character.

Who was stood atop a tower.  Well, until the dragon hit, anyway. 

I really wish I had been recording at that precise moment.  It was pretty hilarious.

Hahaha.  Good thing America isn't like those third world dictatorships where a brutal and wildly out of control military runs everything.

To be fair though, those appear to be riot police.  Who you expect to have some sort of clunking, space marine-esque look.

In America, those are the police they send for unsubstantiated minor drug allegations and copyright infringement.

SWAT are particularly insane in Tucson, which has an otherwise acceptable police force.

I can believe it.  They were responsible for the Jose Guerena case, possibly the most famous egregious and unrequired use of force by a SWAT team out there.

Totally off-topic, but I had to leave the honors building in search of a working stapler. The brain trust at Nerd Village may have a collective average IQ of 160, yet is unable to penetrate the deep technology that is reloading a stapler.
