Title: "The Night before Christmas" Chicken Wings Style !!
Post by: Mike on December 21, 2011, 04:19:22 PM
Check out what our friend Rob, the Tumbling Bear, rhymed for us! (remember him from the "bear with me" strips?)
Twas the night before Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas and on the hangar floors the choppers all nestled behind shuttered doors
The weather was wretched a cold front just passed so we were expecting a nor' easter blast
I sat in my office and finished the logs did not want a visit from Federal dogs
When all of a sudden out of nowhere, did it seem I heard the unmistakable helicopter scream
I flew to the window and to my surprise there was a Sikorsky dropping down through the skies
What I saw was Igor's most famous creation with Santa performing an auto rotation
"Down cyclic -- up collective but, not too darn fast If you blow this one, Nick It'll be your last"
I ran to the ramp with my heart all appatter I had to ask Santa Just what was the matter
But, he just sat there all still on the skids with the raindeer all crying like a bunch of lost kids
Fine! Said Santa -- I was way over gross With all of the presents I thought I was toast!
What happened, Nick I asked with a cry I ran out of gas, and fell from the sky
"Well, it was a good auto what else could I say He told me he'd take 600 Jet A
So, I tanked off his copter and bid him good bye and the raindeer hooked up and off they did fly
Next thing I heard was a ring on the phone And an FAA voice said "I thought you were alone"
Who was that chopper that rotated in I said "I dunno I didn't see him"
Well, said the tower "133 - A jet stream at 12 I hope you can see" Came back a crackle with a Christmas laugh "Santa's got traffic beneath him I'll pass"
And Merry Christmas said Santa and best of luck Came back the tower "Is that you Chuck!"
::rofl:: Awesome!
Thanks Rob!
