Guest FourAces Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Sadly earlier this week I took flight. Not in a plane or another airborne object with my body. I stepped up on a curb and landed several feet away. Thankfully the cement sidewalk, bushes, dirt, metal pole and sprinkler system helped slow me down As I was rolling to a stop I briefly flashed on what it must have felt like to the passengers of flight 214. I came in too low, I tried to abort, I went sliding across the sidewalk into the dirt and bushes and so on Due to my injury I could not get up ...Oh did I mention there was a light rain happening too. It was so nie for people walking into the building to stop and ask if I was alright as I was on the ground ... sure I am alright you fucking moron I just am having the time of my life down here (I thought). The company, I was to visit, did not come out to assist me instead they called the paramedics. There are some fucking cute paramedics! Anyway, I am sore, on edge and ready to sue the world but then it downed on me. Who would I get the most satisfaction in suing? The answer is easy my pal Lucky. Sure he was 3,000 plus miles away and had absolutely nothing to do with my flight but I love Lucky like I would my Grandfather and who better to make return to work Quote

Members Suckrates Posted July 19, 2013 Members Posted July 19, 2013 Those Liquid Lunches are a Bitch ! Quote
AdamSmith Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Actually liquid lunches considerably cushion the blow. But FourAces has mentioned before that he barely drinks. Quote

Pretty good memory but actually I do not drink at all .. not due to a problem just do not like too But if I were to drink that night I would have been living at the bar Quote

Members RA1 Posted July 20, 2013 Members Posted July 20, 2013 4A- Most folks cannot produce enough power to go around after trying to fly low and slow. Even Icarus found ruin by flying just a little too high. Hope you feel better soon. Best regards, RA1 Quote
Members Lucky Posted July 20, 2013 Members Posted July 20, 2013 Go ahead and sue me, sue me. You can be Nathan Detroit singing that, and I will be Sky Masterson, singing Lucky Be A Lady Tonight! Tampa Yankee will conclude with Sit Down, Sit Down, Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat Quote
