Skunk Works

Where dreams come true!

No, this is not a skunk!! But it is the closest image available in my Basic page building ability.

THE SKUNK WORKS is a real place (not a virtual one) in the high desert (not area 51). It was established by an engineer (the famous Kelly Johnson) and has for many years been called "Advanced Development Projects". Because of the original location which was next door to a tannery operation the name "Skunk Works" was coined. Foul smells encouraged the workers to name the operation with tongue in cheek. The name Skunk Works came from Al Capp's Li'l Abner comic strip which featured the "Skonk Works" where Appalachian hillbillies ground up skunks, old shoes, and other foul-smelling ingredients to brew fearsome drinks and such.

Of course, I prefer beer!!
