Underneath, it's a hyper-alloy combat chassis, microprocessor-controlled. Fully armored; very tough. But outside... it's a harmless delivery vehicle - grown for the cyborgs. OMG | :OMG:

It was broke, so I fixed it.

And every script kiddie with a remote is going to try and hack these. Between them and the redneck I'd be surprised if the idea flies!

Of course, they'll be totally unhackable, and will never fall from the sky.

It's just marketing bollocks, to get their name in the news.

I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

A man flying in a hot air balloon suddenly realizes he’s lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts to get directions, "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"

The man below says: "Yes. You're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this building." D'Oh! | :doh:

"You must work in Information Technology," says the balloonist.

"I do" replies the man. "How did you know?" Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

"Well," says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but It's of no use to anyone." Hmmm | :|

The man below replies, "You must work in management."

"I do," replies the balloonist, "But how'd you know?"*

"Well", says the man, "you don’t know where you are or where you’re going, but you expect me to be able to help. You’re in the same position you were before we met, but now it’s my fault." $Shucks | :-\$
