Hard to get work done some days....
....when your office is being shaken so hard that dust from the false ceiling tiles starts accumulating on your desk.

So I went outside to take a look... and was a little surprised.

Stood in the parking lot and took some pictures with the iPhone. I'm a complete idiot for forgetting to take video, but I was into the moment. I'll have the opportunity again tomorrow. So, here's my day at the office....

motordavid - see, it's FUN to work sometimes... (especially when your office roof becomes a carrier flight deck). Want to trade "occupations"? haha

Nice day at the office. You even got to see the "Fat Albert" transport aircraft. A very cool day indeed.

Fat Albert is my favorite! Sure, he's big and lazy and slow, but that plane just has so much character.

my ears have been hurting / ringing for 5 days since they caught the full shockwave from an F16 at 50ft altitude right over my head .

No Fat Albert though.... he was probably being fat and lazy somewhere on the tarmac.

Amazing from a cellphone; better than my VHS-C stuff from
the early '80s. I've seen the BAs a dozen times and it never
gets old.
Thanks for the post up...
