Ah, literalness gets in the way of understanding.  A "burrito" is a tortilla wrapped around suitable fillings as a means of quickly eating a meal.  Because tortillas are fairly inexpensive to make, burritos are sometimes considered food of the poor, the kind of folk who might well be drawn to following a "bandit".  Mind you, a burrito made with corn flour and wrapped around some good filling (say beef fajitas with quacamole, beans, and rice) can be exceedingly tasty and easy to eat quickly.

You made me dream: Flying Burrito --> Flying Tortilla --> Flying Pancake --> Circular Wing... :D

Flying Burrito looks like flying dorito which was the nickname of the A-12
Avenger II :P  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Absolutely Brillant! Very fitting for a state that has flown six national flags in it's history. Pancho Villa would have stopped in his tracks had he seen this wonder! B)  Thanks for building this. I love it (like my state ;) ) :wub:  :wub:  :wub: You need to come down here sometime and see some of the battlegrounds down here.
BdaB, Bravo Zulu to you. Hand salute!

And with the USS Texas nearby, the San Jacinto battleground & monmument is quite worth a visit.

Brian, the only thing I'm curious about is the size...I thought everything was bigger in Texas!  :dum:

Yes, I'm late but wanted to say you've done a fine job again, Brian.
Must be some pretty interesting model shelves at your place!
