So, SangerM, having pulled his nose off of his grindstone for a bit to grace us with his snarkalicious presence, tried to engage in a smack down in my braggadocio post.
I promised an answer yesterday, but this week is simply killer at the day job, the day job having spilled over into being a night job too, for a moment.
But yes, Sanger, I do have some exotics...
And I have some pretties...
And even this fine example of the gunmaker's art::
Any other questions, boyo?

Heh...
However in the interest if dignity, I won't include the link to the proctology videos.
Well.
That went ugly in a hurry.... LOL!
And uh, thanks John, I am impressed.... I like the phasers (though I really would like to get my hands on one of those plasma guns I linked to... I've played a LOT of HALO... And the pistoles, and especially the shotgun, which looks a LOT like the one I linked to.
I don't know enough to know if they're the same model. Are they? That would be an odd twist, eh?
P.S. you win.... i'm demure-ful or contrited or whatever...
PPS, yeah it has been grindstone time... New job, standing in front of a fire hydrant with my mouth open, and then discovered this am I left the ID card in the keyboard at work last night.... it went downhill from there.... :-!
For the Trek fans out there, Art Asylum now makes a prop communicator (including sound clips from TOS) and a tricorder as well.
You know, small things for small minds... :-)
P.S. Outside my window, even as I write, I am watching a C17 chase a C27 I think it is, a B17 taxi into position on the tarmac, and earlier there were a pair of F22s and an F18 setting off all the car alarms in the parking lot. Before that an F4 and an A4 were making lots of noise as part of the NamVet flyby.... Tomorrow is Air Show day here, and everyone's been practicing. I'll try to post some pics by Sunday. (So there, Mr. I have lots of really cool guns.... :-D )
SangerM, You got to watch a B-17 taxi by?
You utter bastich.
I mean that in the nicest way, of course... Heh.
Sometimes, when I'm in my "if I were as rich as Bill Gates" fantasy world, I imagine buying my own Fortress. The F model, natch. :) Maybe a YB-40, just because. Then I'd get my own P-38.
You might like the Art Asylum tricorder, as it include not only blinkenlights (as John says) but "a detailed removable scanner" as well. Too bad it doesn't twirl around and make that warbling noise, else you could really mess with you co-workers minds... Heh.
Heh... Not only taxi. Earlier in the day, I got pics of it coming in for a landing. I'll post those with the others. Today was ok, the static displays were anemic, but there was a B25 and an AC130 that they actually let us take pics inside of this time, and some decent older stuff, and three old willy's jeeps fully tricked out that I took pics of just for John.... The flight stuff was ok, too, and I got some good pics, but on the years when there's no demo team (thunderbirds, etc.), the flying is pretty much the same--left to right, right to left, fast, slow, mixes of old and new, etc. I'd like to see, e.g., an Osprey with fast roping, or an RCAS do some high-end aerials, or maybe a predator toss a hellfire at something (well ok, maybe not that). Instead we got AF Academy parachutists, AETC trainers in tight formation, and the same old tora-tora-tora skit (uing an AETC T6 as one of the American planes this year, just sad....).
But hey, it was an air show and it was free, and if the USAF stuff looks a little used (and it does), well, that's shows it's being used to good purpose, and I don't have a problem with that....
