25. I suspect they don't care about employee safety.

Recall the chicken factory that locked the doors so their employees could not steal chickens. There was a fire and some people died because they could not get out in time.

31. Check this out:

>snip<
State investigators called the Imperial Foods Chicken Plant a "death trap." Eighty safety law violations were found including, no sprinklers, no fire alarm or fire safety plan. The business was fined 800,000 dollars, left bankrupt and the owner spent four years in prison.

16. The second pic was awesome...

We used to climb cell towers for fun.

I'm more impressed by the guy who had to get ABOVE them to take the picture than I'm impressed by them. lol

33. north of Amarillo? there's nothing up there, is there?

of course if you are going south, you can always go look at the canyon at sunset; it's very pretty out there.
