| Half Man Half Biscuit Quote | Reply | | Nuclear Weapons posted on: 3/7/2006 12:28:59 AM My new home for the next couple of months is a town outside San Francisco whose main claim to fame is a facility where they assemble nuclear weapons? Invent new ones? I'm not sure exactly They don't seem to get many out of towners,or at least if they do they all seem to work at 'the lab' I've been asked by about half a dozen people already about what I'm doing here.Usually in shops As soon as they hear me speak they invariably ask 'So you are working out at the lab then,huh?' Up until now I've said 'No' But I think I'm going to start pretending I do,makes things easier.As no follow up explanation will be required 'Yeah,I'm working on a new joint US/Irish nuclear torpedo project..Can't really tell you much about it though or else I'll have to kill you with this pencil I'm holding.Just hand over my Fritos and Heineken and stop being nosey |

Speech patterns tell a tale on us. As soon as I begin to talk to anyone around here, they know know I'm from out of town. There is some TV commercial that my kid keeps quoting in which some southern bubba-type guy drawls "You're not from aro-o-und here, are ya boy?" |

replied on: 3/8/2006 12:31:54 AM The proper response then is: "I'm one of Uncle Larry's (Lawrence L.) Bomb Boys (yeah, that is a bomb facility). I'm here on a project where I get to sit in a tiny hole and see if my experiment will detonate an entire city(this is how my friend described some of the experiments some of the scientists were working on)." |
