Happy Nail 'em up Friday (old Roman holiday)

Sorry everyone, but the office is closed today so I'm out and about today so this list of links is abbrevated this morning.

Just a test...

"Test of a Fire Fighting Foam system at Ellsworth AFB. This was only supposed to last a few seconds, but the system would not shut-off." Lots of pics...

"Outside our building is a sorry little sidewalk tree. At the height of summer, it had about five leaves. A dead glowstick has been dangling from its branches for three months. Tonight while I was out on a smoke break, I looked at the tree and thought, “Man, that is one sad tree. It looks cold and wet and pathetic. It needs a sweater!”"
I'm not suggesting that anyone I know that knits might under take this project, just pointing it out.

"Return to the Land of Oz with these exclusive, first-of-a-kind Wizard of Oz collectible figurines from Hamilton Authenticated! As mythical fantasy figurines, the heroes of Oz emerge from the past to meet the future."
.... I could be wrong, but this looks more like Dorothy meets Princess Leia (think slave girl two-piece).
