This week's episode: "New Digs"

It is evening. It is Tuesday.

Everywhere the eye can see is white, just an infinite void.
In the middle of the void a blur comes into focus.
It is a cluster of what appear to be pilots.

Let’s get closer



Jay: "Hello!?"

EdFred: "HELLO Hello Hello Hello"

Jay: "How come it echoes when you do it?"

EdFred: "It doesn't I added that for effect"

Jordane93: "Where are we?"

MidlifeFlier: "We’re in the middle of nowhere"

Jim Rosenow: "Technically, Nowhere can't have a middle."

EdFred: "Prove it"

dturri: "Did we Die? Maybe this is heaven."


[Just then a BIG BOOMING voice rings out]

Boomy Voice: "10 Minutes"

Jordane93: "Who was that?"

AggieMIke: "I believe it was the voice of God"

Captain: "Nope. Not possible!"



[The Booming voice speaks again from the ether]

Boomy Voice: "I am Zen!"

Badger: "Zen?"

Boomy Voice: "Yes I am Zen!"

Boomy Voice: "Zen Four Oh, master of all that neither taps nor talks!"

Boomy Voice: "Soon you will know me. I will be known all around the world!"

Swampfox: "The world is not round actually. I can prove it with this gyroscope."

Boomy Voice: "Hush! Zen speaks."

Boomy Voice: "Does everyone know what time it is????"

Sac: "Bacon time?"
6PC: "Hammer Time."
Matthew: "Miller Time?"
Badger: "Is it time to get a new watch?"
Jay: "There's no time like the present"
6PC: "It's because today is a gift"

Boomy Voice: "Will you guys stop it?? I'm trying to do something here."

Spike: "Is that you Troy"

Boomy Voice: "Nooooooooo. It is I, Zen, the patron saint of future conversation."

Spike: "I'm not buying it, I am pretty sure that is you Troy."

Troy: "Alright, you got me. Hey anyone wanna buy some Go Pros?"


Jim Rosenow: "no no, let’s get on with the show. This void is cold and I am going snow blind."

Jason: "I'll take it from here"

[The Final Countdown plays in the background]



Jason: "Pilots of America. ...and also other countries. I give you.. Your new hangar!"

[In a flash, the gaggle of aviators find themselves surrounded by an ultra-modern hangar with all the bells and whistles]


[EdFred immediately grabs a sharpie and starts writing on the wall]


Badger: "Ed what the hell?"

edFred: "These are the times you can log PIC. This crap needs to be permanently displayed"



[A tapping sound can be heard on one of the walls]


Jason: "What's that sound?"

Sac: "I think someone is outside trying to get in"

Sac: "Looks like DenverPilot"

Sac: "It is Denver. He is outside tapping on the wall. I think he is saying something."

Denver: " "

Denver: " "

Jason: "Dude, we can't hear you"

Denver: " "

Sac: "What?"

Denver: " "

Jason: "Nate, you are going to have to use the door like everyone else"

Jay: "Wait, we have to use a door?!?"


[Denver appears in the door way clearly agitated]

Denver: "This door thing isn't going to work. I hang out in a lot of hangars and if I had to use the door to get into all of them, I'd just be going through doors all the time. This is reall….."



Ted [interrupting]:
"Jesus, I just had the worst dream!"

Jim Rosenow: "Wasn't a dream dude, we were really in that void"

Ted: "No, I managed to avoid the void"

Ted: "I just had this dream I was flying a single."

Jim Rosenow: "So?"

Ted: "I wouldn't be caught dead in a plane with an odd number of engines. It goes against my..."


MidlifeFlier[interrupting]:
"Hey this is cool guys. You can just move the pictures along the wall. It’s like they are not affixed to it. They just move."

Badger: "That's wild. I can just drag these pictures from wall to wall."


Badger: "Check out this picture. It's CC268 on a training flight"

Jordane93: "Why is he flying with 2 hands on the yoke?"

CC268: "Are you not supposed to do that?"


TehMightyPirate: "CRAP!!!! Where did you get that Photo?"

Jason: "I bought it on craigslist. Why?"

TehMightyPirate: "I took that phot…Er well I didn't take it but a co-worker took it while I was flying."

TehMightyPirate: "Did you pay for it?"

Jason: "Yep 86 dollars"

TehMightyPirate: "Oh God I am going to lose my cert."

TehMightyPirate: "Where the hell is Ron when you need him?"

Denver: " "

Denver: " "

TehMightyPirate: "Not now man. We can’t hear you out there anyway."

TehMightyPirate: "Can I lose my cert over this photo if someone bought it?"

Jason: "Um… Yes actually. Look, give me $86 and you can keep your license. It's the only way."

TehMightyPirate: "Sweet. That was a close call."

Jason: "Yes it was"

TehMightyPirate: “Thank you. Here have a trophy.”

We fade out as the troop of pilots starts kicking the tires on their new home away from home, exploring the new features of the hangar.

ONCE upon an IMC morning dreary, while I pondered, weak, and weary,
over many a quaint and curious volume of FAR/AIM lore, —
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came talk a tapping
As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my hangar door.
"Tis someone from Denver, I muttered, "talk a tapping at my hangar door;
Only this and nothing more."
 
What happened to Bourbon time? I see a little prejudice developing.
 
It was good Bryan but not epic.

You see it was just too short. That puts it in the "good" zone. To be placed in the "epic" zone, it has to have a larger word count than Nate's average post. Not even close!

:goofy:

(we need the goofy smiley back)

It was longer but the forum kept telling me it was too long.
 
it wasn't very funny the first time I read it. it was very funny the 2nd time I read it. if you average it out, it was kinda funny.
