Singed hair and broken eardrums

No need for a snow blower around here yet, but the next home game
is the Michigan game on Halloween. Maybe you could arrange for the
Air Force to send some F-16s to blow all the leaves on my lawn to
Iowa ? One F-16 would be plenty, two might scare the dog.
For leaves, we have the venerable "Vark Fart." An RF-111
(affectionately named the "Aardvark") can dump fuel and ignite the
cloud of fuel with it its afterburner. Don't really know if there is
a purpose for this other than burning off excess fuel when they have
to dump it. However, I looks cool as hell when a Vark does a
highspeed pass down a runway just after dark with a totally
unsuspecting base population. Think that a 300 X 100 foot flame would
take care of those leaves?
Yeah, that sounds about right. Tell them to watch out for the
trellis and the hedge.
