    Here's a thread for sightings of Military equipment and general weird crap in the in the chitty this week.

    Coast guard chopper on Monday

    Another one today but this is badass looking. I'll see if I can figure out which model it is.



    Bomb scare in Hoboken yesterday. They cleared out the whole terminal for it :mad:

    Walking down 8th avenue on Sunday when I saw a massive caravan of cars / police going north. Saw Cheney in one of them. Snipers (with guns out) ahead and behind. Also saw ambulances at the rear. :eek:

    True. I was just hoping that for once the guns would be pointed AWAY from us instead of directly at us! :)

    Lot's of Washington DC plated vehicles with police lights around downtown today.

    Huge flower pot type things and posts on the sidewalk of the Passport Agency building.

    Some type of special police force dressed all in black with only "police" marked on their back

    A lot of helicopters around in general.

    Lots of open parking spaces on Varick Street :)

    I would like to see those tanks, that's gotta be a sight to see. How is the traffic around that area ?

    Hubert, wasn't that one at 34th near Rene's when we had that big backup of traffic? I thought I saw one as you whipped that illegal left as that cop tried to chase you down the one way. You were prolly too busy to notice cuz you wuz runnin' from John Law, but I thought I seen one.
