I don't know that tha's such a good idea. That camera is just a little too good for my comfort. Consider that at full magnification one might be able to zoom in on Bruno in the back of his restaurant. That the unwitting viewer might be able to see him slaughtering whatever animal goes into his lasagna is too horrible to contemplate.

But then there are always professionals to help such trauma.

so...KK....Is that the Apok Attack Apparatus alongside the road, the silver/bronze large window 6 x 6? Looks like a radar dome on top, with a laser gun turret on the back. The turret needs some tuning up though, cuz it is late and has way too much lead on that kiwi killer plane. Looks like the laser might take out the water tower :shock:

Well... the RV is our Targetting Control Unit... and WAS there to paint Bruno's.... but the Water Tower is a landmark... not on the target list!!!!

More to follow... as you can guess.

No shit dude. That gunship just took out the Black Rock Saloon. Bruno's is about 50 yards back by that white pickup.

However..... I'm assuming the Kernul was just doing a practice strafe there. Our leader makes no mistakes.

None.

Airborne Gunships are sloppy weapons. You have to start the strafe about 100 yards before the target... and keep up a good burst all the way through.

I'm sure the Saloon won't mind... after being a customer there a couple times... it can only help to give it a good sweeping up.

...but, I digress... the story continues.....

I am amazed, really amazed!!!

All I'm asking for here is improved quality on the Gerlach webcam, and look what happens!!!! What a thrill !!!! : )

All hell broke loose!!

Now.. I was hoping that someone would get worried about who is going to give water to the new trees planted
After seeing picture of the big dead tree that was removed and stuff like that....

This is the best picture in a long long time!
Did somebody do some fixing with the camera or is it just the nice weather?

I'm starting to think that the luge may not be an aberration based on aqua vit and two am.

That's all right-- I can wait for an answer. I am going to be going to bed soon, and not going to be online again until some time on Sunday.
