What is it, you ask? It's a transport vehicle for parts of a decommissioned nuclear reactor from San Onofre. Load 2 of 4 is now staged out front of SONGS, getting ready for it's trip via an undisclosed route at an undisclosed date and time... ...But the blinking message sign on South Sante Fe down the hill from me has been advising for the last week and a half that this particular stretch of road will be closed overnight Monday 9/19 from 11pm to 4am. It has a bazillion wheels (okay, only 192), gets pulled by one huge semi-tractor, and pushed by three more. I cannot really see the risk of hijack being high, even without the CHP with side-arms and the camo guys with automatic weapons.
Down to just a blue car now.

I am sure if you explained to them your need to take detailed, up close pictures for Gary to Smite me even further (some how..) they would be more than willing to put aside thier weapons long enough to let you climb up on thier shoulders to get the pictures needed.

hence no nuclear smite yet.
I tend to break things down to the push of a red button
Red is the color of smite after all

What is it, you ask?
Very cool, I've seen some awesome transportations on TV. They don't tend to happen around here with the exception of the plane that crash landed in the Hudson and was being moved to a museum in Virginia.
I had a guy visiting from Oz once, who was in the super heavy equiptment moving game....he did HUGE pieces of mining equiptment and machinery of all sorts across all parts of Oz..and he had brought along a bunch of pictures to show me..was really mind boggling!
Oh, and a little Mopar content as well...he had containers (40 foot shipping ones) full of Hemi and other big block stuff there...

I should have thought of that.
Like Chekov, asking around San Francisco in his heavy accent where to find the nuclear wessels.
Perhaps you could have bribed them with assorted colors of panties?
But I imagine the sake of Smite would have had them more than willing to help you get those perfect pictures.

We just got cable. I have to look and see if we get Chiller.
As Barry said....just walk outside to feel it, if nothing else.
I do get Chiller TV. Is that the same channel? It is in the midst of various other cable channels so I doubt that I would get "Venutian Stripper Zombies" on that channel.
