From ANN:
Quote:
Arizona Man Allegedly Shoots At Parked Airplane Suspect Charged With DUI, Among Other Things

Shots were fired at a parked Grumman Albatross at Deer Valley
Airport near Phoenix early Sunday, and a local resident is under
arrest, charged with aggravated DUI and felony flight.
Randon Reid Mugshot (Yes, Really)

The suspect is 26-year-old Randon Reid. The shots were fired
near the airport about 0130 local time Sunday, and they were heard
by police officers on a routine patrol. The police saw a vehicle
speeding away, and gave chase.
Grumman Albatross N7025J

Television station KTVK reports on its arizonafamily.com website
that when the officers tried to pull Reid over, he refused to stop.
He was later located at his home and taken into custody.


Police seized two guns they believe were used in the shooting.
The Albatross was damaged by the gunfire. It is not known if the
plane's owner has any connection with Reid which may have led to
the incident.

A buddy who used to teach survival classes told me that if you put an 8 pound red building brick and a Seagull in the oven @ the same time @350. The brick would be done sooner, be more tender, and taste far better than the Sea gull :shock:

Some natives in Alaska do eat Gulls but it's way, way beyond an aquired taste. Plus gulls are federally protected so just antagonizing one will get you a $500.00 fine. :butthead:

Amen, one episode of Flying Wild Alaska showed the women craving some good 'ol "stink flipper"...A buried and fermented for 7 weeks then boiled delicacy of seal flipper. :shock:
Just the thought of eating the stuff if is enough to kill a gringo. :?

Stank flipper meant something entirely differnt back in the day... :lol:

Well, apart from the hood, this guy certainly could pass for "The Great Cornholio"

Shame about the Albatross.

I was never a Beavis & B fan, but for those who don't know Cornholio, I'll just leave this here:
