Eh, big deal, he got nuttin' on me.....
I had about 500 lbs of 16' roofing metal in my work truck over a year ago...
got all the way round the town about 180* worth on the loop, and so....
stopped at the light to the main drag...accelerated SLO, and dumped the entire load right in the middle of the street, blocking a MAJOR highway, one of the through lanes...traffic backed up to Cuba....

Wish I could live in Cocoa Beach or thereabouts. I've spent several months working at the Cape. Living in Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral was one of the happiest times of my career. I had my wife come and live with me. Sadly I can't get my job transfered there.
Actually, the employment situation there is now up in the air. With Obama wanting to cancel a lot of NASA projects, including the Shuttle, there may be a lot of layoffs. Why spend money on the space program when you can provide the money for entitlement programs.
That happened after the Apollo program ended too.
Around 30,000 talented people got the toss. Engineers were a dime a dozen back then.
Turned Cocoa into a ghost town for many years.
