airtwardo 6 #26 April 2, 2011 QuoteI completely forgot this year... My best one was 2006. I got a random buddy to call my folks as my coach, and tell them I had a hard landing under turbulent winds and was taken to the ER. Over the next 5 hours we developed the story up to the point that they were frantically shopping for plane tickets to come visit me in the ICU. My mom, saint that she is, said, "YOU'RE A FUCKING ASSHOLE, I HOPE YOU DIE!" She's right. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thinwheats 0 #28 April 2, 2011 yeah... she generally is... the epilogue to the story is that a few days later I really did have shitty landing...no ER trip, but enough of a brush with Karma to change mind about mess with Mom too much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingJ 0 #29 April 3, 2011 One of my favorites was as a kid when either the Atlanta Journal-Constitution or possibly more likely the Marietta Daily Journal ran an article (with picture) showing the site where The Big Chicken had once stood but been dismantled and removed. People were freaking out! For those that have never experienced The Big Chicken...in Marietta you'd likely get directions to NYC as something along the lines of just 900 miles North of The Big Chicken. http://roadsidegeorgia.com/site/bigchicken.htmlKilling threads since 2004.
