b1-66er: How's Smokey?
Blow Smoke: Well all of California is on fire. I am living in a swimming pool.
I earned that Smokey moniker
b1: Maybe NOW you see how "unusual" your original CO declaration¹ was.
BS: No. I was right back then. I flew through smoke to land in Colorado Springs. The captain came on and said "if you smell smoke, that isn't the plane. All of Colorado is on fire with the exception of the airport. Thank you for flying the friendly skies"
b1: I've never heard anything like that.
Maybe I should be paying more than $15 for a plane ticket.
What do they say now?
"The planet is doomed.
We hope to see you on another United flight soon.
Have a nice day."
¹2 decades ago. He claimed it was unsafe to travel to Denver because of a fire in CO Springs (90 miles away). I believe, but am not sure, that everything he's ever known is either currently on fire, or will be by the time you've read this.
I always send anyone I post a notice that I've done so, one reason is possible problems.
ReplyDeleteHere's the ensuing conversation.
BS: For the record you have your facts wrong. I was not flying to Denver. I was flying to Colorado Springs where Intel was. (The radio team was there)
And I didn't say it was unsafe
I said it was a bad time to go to Colorado
b1: You said, "THEY'RE MAKING ME¹ FLY TO COLORADO AND IT'S NOT SAFE ²•"
¹replace that with "my people" or whatever the hell is your 'fact.'
²insert was many exclamation points as appropriate.
BS: Tastes great. Less filling. Tastes great! Less filling! TASTES GREAT! LESS FILLING!
b1: Here are the absolute facts:
You. Were. Talkin'. Crazy.
I BELIEVE YOU STILL DO.
