Drat to my knowledge is like saying darn, or rather, it seems that darn has replaced drat over time.

Re: COMPLETE THE CARTOON CONTEST WINNER !!
« Reply #66 on: July 14, 2008, 10:07:48 PM »
We have a winner!

Well two winners, actually....

Ready?

First I want to say that is was as hard as always to pick out just one winner since there were soooo many good lines submitted. We thought this cartoon was a lot harder compared to the previous ones, maybe a reason why we had it laying around for many months with no good lines. But you guys helped out a lot! Thank you. The criteria for us was to come up with something original and new and we have found a winner:


The line we thought was the most original, even though it is very technical was:

Heli-Skiing:
"When life gives you KLMN012345Z01020KT1SMBLSNOVC005A2986, make lemonade."


by "Thunder Eagle"

to make it even funnier we should go with KASE (Aspen, CO) or KMMH (Mammoth, CA) for the airport identifier!  ::rofl::

So:
Congratulation "Thunder Eagle", you won the subscription to "The Funniez"!

 ::drinking::  ::drinking::  ::drinking::  ::wave::


if you ask me, that joke wasnt funny at all... there were some good ones out there but this one I don't like.

Hence the reason why he wasn't asked to judge.  They don't use METARs when rcflying?  Go figure...personally I thought it was funny. 

I say, nice job eagle!   ::rambo:: :'( ::angel::

I'll translate for you rc...
At airport KLMN on the 1st at 2340zulu, the winds were from 010 degrees at 20 knots, 1 statute mile visibility blowing snow overcast at 500ft with an alitimeter of 29.86... ::whistle:: ::whistle:: ::whistle::  ::drinking:: ::silly::

before this gets out of hand and we start:

everybody is entitled to his/her opinion but,
we made the contest, we pay for the shirt and the subscription, we decide what we think is funny and original  ;) ;D

But let this be an encouragement rather than critique!
I invite everybody in here to come up with their own cartoon. Feel free to post them in here and make us laugh!!
That's what this is all about (that and talking story about flying)

METARS for flying?  ::thinking:: i just stick my head out of the window but then again im a wannabe pilot (R/C stuff).   But Mike is right he and Stef made the rules so they get to judge so i say well done to those who got the prize's no hard fellings and all that.  ::drinking:: ::drinking::

Thanks! And, well, we said at the announcement that "as usual this will be our discreet decision by intransparent and subjective criteria"! We live up to our promises!  ;)  And it's not like we would hand out luxury cruises or Ferraris as prizes, but t-shirts...

Why Ferrari? A simple BMW would be enough for my needs ;D
