Workin on the chain gang

I worked over 50 hours this week. Dang. Same next week too.

Um, well, I haven't done much since the last time I posted.

I can't stand those signs on the highway that say "Speed patrolled by aircraft". Let's think about this for a second: Have you ever seen a plane going over while driving in one of those areas? I haven't. Does the government really think we're that gullible to believe something so outrageous? But, for a moment, let's assume that the signs are accurate. There are a few logical reasons why they would do this:
1. Because it saves time for the patrolmen.
2. Because it saves money.
3. Because it catches more offenders.

The first one, I have no idea if it would, but that's not a valid reason to do this. The second one, can't be accurate. You not only have to pay the pilot and copilot, just like a driver in a normal car, but I'm pretty sure jet fuel costs a crapload more than regular gas. And the third, seriously, maybe it will catch a few more people, but not enough to make up for the extra cost for the fuel.

Now, let's say that they actually catch someone speeding; how do they pull them over? Do they yell from a megaphone for them to pull over while they complete their descent? Makes no sense at all.

I kind of want to get Newsradio on DVD.
