Typhoon Squadron Report: June 19, 2004

"We will fly the winds of death!"

--------------------
Introduction
--------------------

I'd say it was an exciting week, but then I'd be lying. :P

Not really. Mildly exciting. For the first time in nearly a year and a half, I got a promo. Popular belief says that Locke was drunk when he recc'd it, but only he knows for sure. :P

On a secondary note....the gauntlet has been tossed. A few of us (Mell, DV, and myself) were discussing Citations. We had somewhere in the low fifties when it came up. It was mentioned that some lame Int squad has like...238 citations. That's like...180 more than us. And here's the challenge:

(MK|shower) beat them in citation before end of july and i'll give you all BS's :P

So. Month and a half. 45 days (or so). Think we can do it? 180 is a lot of battles....but personally, the chance to point and laugh at ASF squads is too rich for me to pass up. So I'm gonna be flying my ass off this next month. How 'bout you?

*Prost had a ride in the pouch of a Kangaroo. He says it was, quote, "Great fun, and very sexy.", unquote.

*In unrelated news, it has been declared by majority opinion, that P looks like one pimped out pirate.

*Fr*y made an appearance in the pilot lounge, and was brutally assaulted by many pilots. He was last seen being evacuated by those medical people :P

*Members of the Sov held a demonstration at BG headquarters, demanding the fair treatment of their pilots and their ship, and calling for a cease to anti-sovite feelings. Their leader, Admiral Proton, was mocked, jeered, and booed off stage while in the middle of his passionate speech. He was then hosed down with urine, Colodka, Chalquila, and what some believe to be spenting fluid***

***-anyone who's feelings are hurt by this blatant TC/Sov bashing...I direct your complaints to the nearest toilet. Please flush when done.

(On a side note. The more amusing Wing News items were contributed by McCollum News Network)
