Three giant military 'copters just flew (calmly) south along the route of the Hudson River. They had what looked like long pipes sticking out of the front of them. Dialogue in my office:
MALE CO-WORKER: Whoa! Cool!
ME: What are they?
MALE: Gun ships.
ME: Are those guns sticking out of the front of them?
MALE: Those are cannons.
ME: How do guys always know all this stuff?
MALE: 'Cause we're guys.
