I would have liked to have seen the face of the driver of the only car that drove by as he was "taxiing.  :laugh:

I can see the headline: Pilot, passenger make safe emergency landing on Florida street; Driver killed in 1-car collision.

On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

I don't know all the particulars, but I heard it was a Capissen 38 engine. 

Also, you can see the primary buffer panel flying off of it, at about 0:14 in the video.

Oh yeah, those things just fall out of the sky!

Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

It's a little trickier to install a catalyzer in mid flight.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
