City officials can have quite a sense of humor.

A friend at work has been pointing me to some interesting videos out of Iraq. Having always been fascinated with military technology, I found this video particularly intriguing. It is video from an Apache attack helicopter watching (and subsequently eliminating) insurgents as they place an RPG in a field. This is a true testiment to the awesome power of its 30mm gun. Pay attention to the radio communications between the pilot and the forward-air-controller.
