The minigun sound? It is a unique noise. I was looking at the scene wondering how Arnold isn’t getting pelted by spent ammo casings. Then I remembered, they were dropping below the gun, not ejecting out from a side port. Lol. Can you imagine if it did though? Hundreds of really hot pieces of metal.. probably like plasma cutting metal overhead without any protective clothes.
Oh, please. The casings would've dodged Ahnald out of fear. :D

Old old Ahhnold joke: Why did he and Maria Shriver get married? To make the first bullet-proof Kennedy! (insert rim-shot here)

Haha. Not many know the Kennedy connection, or they forget it.

Finished the LEGO Roller Coaster! It is really fun to watch the cars travel the track (sometimes without getting hung up..lol). The motor is defective, so will get to sit on hold for ages to talk to customer service...maybe tomorrow.

Must be a marvel of LEGO-nuity. :) Wish there was a way to share it!

Sat on hold for LEGO customer service for ages, as expected. Spoke with a wonderful gal who is sending a new battery box for the motor, some new car parts to hopefully solve the getting hung up issue and together we solved another issue where a piece of track was slightly higher that it should be (assembly error multiple times, darn those pictographs). All in all, a good day.

Will work on finding a video of the coaster, that exists in a format that I can use here.

Happy to report the Bunny Beach for Sunbathing is open for business it seems. Sprawled out flat in the sun, I'm seeing the hippity hopping fuzzballs enjoy the day.

The woodpecker has taken to attacking trees instead of metal gutters, which is just a smidgen less offensive to my ears at the crack of OMG. Oh, and he has a friend. A different species, much smaller and quick to depart at the sound of an opening window.

Bunnies sunbathing and wood peckers? Mel blanc is on the loose again. :)
