   *drool* Duuuude. That is just something else. The juxtuposition of military hardware (Ok, likely facimily) and the casual guys is fun. I hope you got a good shot of this bad boy takin for the stars.

   *rubs his hands together* This should be a fun couple weeks! (months? Is it too much to ask that you got THAT many amazing photos?)

   heh, Cracked has solicited 150 funny captions for this photo….. including:

   "And just like that, Todd’s Boy Scout troop had become a nuclear power."

   "…and somewhere, Dick Cheney is touching himself."

   "The soon to be winners of the Mid-West Kite Flying Contest"

   "Carl! You dumb ass! You’re not wearing any sunscreen! Put your shirt on!"

   "Umm… guys? You’re not supposed to TRY to win the Darwin Awards."
