I found this in my in box this morning, very strange. Is it genuine or some sort of game or am I inadvertently publicising something? Piedmont was the name of the town in The Andromeda Strain.

I wondered why that blog sounded screwy.I didn't read everything just the main area,about going,not going back to where ever he was thinking of.  :cookoo:



I myself prefer to live in reality.Take it as it comes cause I can't stay long.  :icon_rolleyes:

Towards the top of the page??  That's most definitely a HMMWV, I forget the designation for the bulky canvas but the slimline canvas top is M998.

(http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2/yamahonkawazuki/blockade.jpg) weird, that hood, even though at poor resolution looked more rounded, not like the HMMWV, i got to ride in a few at ft campbell  :icon_twisted:, tha pic just did NOT look like one. perhaps im wrong, but it looked out of proportion. ( even at bad resolution)

know what, i see it now my bad  :oops: :oops: i see the air intake midways across the hood., on a side note, i jsut love thse "conspiracy theories like we never went to the moon and stuff. makes for an entertaining read. mostly cause i LOVE to ask those making such claims, to PROVE IT. which they post a youtube, or a wiki. both of which can be changed at will :laugh:
