Title: Low Flight
Post by: vadr on September 26, 2000, 05:00:00 PM
Oh! I've slipped through the swirling clouds of dust, a few feet from the dirt,
I've flown the Phantom low enough, to make my bottom hurt.

I've TFO'd the deserts, hills, valleys and mountains too,
Frolicked in the trees, where only flying squirrels flew.

Chased the frightened cows along, disturbed the ram and ewe,
And done a hundred other things, that you'd not care to do.

I've smacked the tiny sparrow, bluebird, robin, all the rest,
I've ingested baby eaglets, simply sucked them from their nest!

I've streaked through total darkness, just the other guy and me,
And spent the night in terror of things I could not see.

I've turned my eyes to heaven, as I sweated through the flight,
Put out my hand and touched, the master caution light.

PS

Well boys, we've got three engines out, we've got more holes in us than a horse trader's mule, the radio is gone and we're leaking fuel and if we was flying any lower why we'd need sleigh bells on this thing...but we've got one thing on those Ruskies. At this height why they might harpoon us but they dang sure ain't gonna spot us on no radar screen!

Ah, the immortal words of...Slim Pickens.

If you don't know what we're talking about, time to run, not walk, to the video store to rent "Dr. Stranglove: or, How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb".
