Only the drone is for Sale. The SD chip is already in my camera.

From now I'll be showering my old, flabby, wrinkled body with the window open, even in winter.

Damned thing crashed for you, it should explode for me.

You could return it for credit...

if enough old, wrinkly flabby people (I include myself in that category) start flashing drones.

You could take care of that neighbor of yours.

any such missile. Nothing, I tell you.

Some things can't be unseen

I won't comment on the mental images I'll be having nightmares about tonight

In real life.

Y'all are personifying this 'drone'. It was the remote pilot that failed to control the craft after the window peep gave said pilot more than was expected. Chew on that a while.

If the video was just being recorded, the drone probably decided to crash itself. If it was a live feed, somewhere there is a drone pilot who is either rolling on the floor yelling "My eyes! My eyes!", or rocking catatonically in his chair, muttering "What has been seen cannot be unseen..."

what keeps the drone from flying into the side of a building, or a tree, or into power lines?

I saw a program on TV that showed a couple of small, bird-sized drones flying in close formation with no direct human controls.

I suppose they could also be programmed to self-immolate if their sensors picked up something too unspeakably horrible to record or transmit.

out loud funny. Thanks for the giggles.

And I'm not the only member of this exclusive club, some who have since changed their screen names.

I'd like to be a member of the DU tattoo club too, but needles frighten me. I'm the only not-tattooed among my many siblings.

Any non-sentient electronics that land in my backyard are mine to do with as I please. (The sentients I repair and set free, same as birds.)

When I was a kid I found weather balloon transmitter belonging to the U.S. Navy. I returned it to them, postage prepaid, but not before I'd opened it up and figured it out. Battery, barometer, thermometer, transmitter, foil-and-cardboard radar reflector. Not much. They could afford to lose them. Maybe I should have kept it.

If I was less honest and a lot meaner I'd probably be wealthy or at least affluent. But it wouldn't be worth my soul.

No way did I send it back. I experimented with it for almost a year.

that would be worth the price of extra shipping!

I've been expecting you. I'll email you a copy of the photo, for your further amusement.

It's just a weird coincidence that it's an appropriate response to nearly everything you post.

it as an app on Google Play. I hear there are big bucks to be made with useful apps.

As always, I welcome and am humbled by your frequent responses to my posts. Please proceed. Kick away!

I'm disappointed. But, again, please proceed, Romulox. I will gladly offer man opportunities for you to kick my threads.

Predictability is an interesting thing, to be sure.

I think quite the opposite. I think this thread is an embarrassment for you.

for sure. But, I accept the ravages that age brings, since the alternative has little to recommend it.

Some folks who have replied in this thread appear to have recognized the humor with which it was written. That you have not seen that aspect of it is more or less puzzling to me. However, I am enjoying this Sunday A.M. exchange of posts with you, for their irony, if nothing else.

I encourage you to develop your reasoning regarding this thread at length, since it will help provide a bit of whimsy to everyone's day. Please proceed.

from various countries

Besides, what would I do with a drone?

you could do it on Ebay

Mexican border.

sarcasm

to operate the drone, that would be difficult, I'd think. Besides the life of a drug smuggler doesn't appeal, somehow. A bit too hazardous for this old saggy-assed guy.

Is this the drone in question?

But, I'm willing to pass it along to the highest bidder on eBay, not being one to hoard treasures.

I heard, VA, NY, TX and a few others were slated for that.

Interesting question. I would probably check ebay for drones, and then set it to that.

However, if you try to sell it as a "Genuine Limited Edition NSA Spy Drone", you may be able to get more.
Set it at $250 auto and a minimum of $75 starting bid.

Good luck!

You know, they're watching the entire Internet, so that might be a risky move. I'm thinking, though, that I can just include a photo that shows the "PROPERTY OF NSA - FREE POSTAGE PAID RETURN" text on it. I don't think they're spying on text within photos. But, I could be wrong.

I will, of course, include the photo of my saggy, wrinkled ass in the description on eBay. I'm thinking that will enhance its value enormously, as long as eBay doesn't pull the listing for images that require brain bleach after viewing.

Another question: Can I ship this via USPS Media Mail?

The picture? You can ship by creating a fake email account, in a password protected zip file.
Call it, sagtasticDec2013.zip

If you actually want to make a physical thing of it, like that , sure USPS Media Mail works well.

Ebay might not pull the image, but broadcast it out there, like that bottoms-less girl who showed far more than the item she was selling due to an ill placed mirror.

to "prove" that "drones is the ebil"?

It is in the public domain, now. I expect it to go full viral, for sure.

I've been desiring a picture of your nekid, wrinkled, sagging ass . Let the bidding begin!

selling that and dumping the drone in the dumpster behind the Cub Foods near my home. Maybe there's money in my saggy ass. It ought to be good for something.

but then you have to prove its your nekkid butt. lol

and drop trou for the buyer. That would be a great selling feature, I think!

For those under the age of 60: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=drop+trou

It's -5 out, so if you drop trou on my front porch maybe the cold will take up the wrinkles.

But $2K is a bit high for such a short distance, wouldn't you say?

I don't show my ass to just anybody for free, after all...

and shoot those low flying things down when they fly over my house . . .

I suggest 00 buckshot (non-lead).
