    It’s not a drone. It’s an R/C quadcopter. A drone is a completely different and definitely not something you want to see flying near you. Stupid media.

    This the year of the drone, or whatever localhost called it…I think we are going to here about them increasingly in the news…What will the cameras pic up? How much C4 can one hold?….CFinFL may need his shotgun….And how do you shoot one down without wrecking the pizzas?

    Up to now, the comments (only 4) completely miss Jimmy’s point that A&J come from different universes. Despite that, they can’t do without each other. That’s the thing that this strip has always been about.

    It has already been proven that RC quadcopters and other RC aircraft can carry and fairly accurately fire a semi-auto pistol of moderate caliber, directed by stabilized pencil camera on the copter. They can easily carry up to three pounds of C-4 or Semtex, and any fool can make TATP explosive in their kitchen sink for those too stupid to find a way to get a better explosive like C4 or Semtex. Some day someone is going to fly a quadcopter or other RC flying machine carrying explosives into an airliner. I’m betting it will be less than 2 years.

    And the Aum Shinrikyo gang of Japan proved you do not have to have a PhD in chemistry to make Sarin gas. Imagine an RC aircraft with a bottle of Sarin spraying down a high school football game or a homecoming parade? Or having a small explosive charge and some radioactive dust to disperse? Or releasing a powdered substance? Even if it is fake anthrax the panic will be major, and real anthrax would be tragic.

    Any current long range RC aircraft can carry a couple of Claymore mines. Explode them over the stands at an NFL or baseball game. Imagine several going off at once.

    The possibilities are vast and terrible.

    Shooting down any privately owned drone over your property should be legal.

    Shooting down any government drone over your property should be mandatory.

    I think Janis just realized that this is the end of nude sunbathing.

    I haven’t seen Towhees up in the sky so much. They are little birds that like to nest in tall grass.They have a call that sounds like a baby kitten. More than once, they’ve fooled me. They also do that wounded bird thing when dogs are around, to lead the dog away from the nest.

    Spotted towhees are strikingly beautiful, black and white and orange. California towhees are drab brown and designed to fade into the semi-arid landscape. They’re bigger than juncos or finches and like to hide in bushes and stay close to the ground.

    Cozmik CowboyMilitary drones are full size aircraft with big fuel loads; or at least as large, if not larger, than the average model airplane. You want to shoot down one of those so it crashes in your neighborhood? You need to be locked up.

    Gee, and all this time I thought that towhee was the vehicle hooked up to the wrecker. It, amazing what a person can learn from these posts.
