Adventures of Air Lucie & Co., Inc. By Larry Chadwick Here is a little airline company that can get you from point A to Point B, And even you wouldn’t believe the things along the way you’ll get to see. It seems that Duncan is their pilot and Interloper their flight attendant., But it’s the name sake of the company who really is the commandant. Yes, the Air Lucie and Company, Inc. is a very enterprising group of people, They’ll fly you high and they’ll fly you low, just watch out for the steeple. Enough time in the air is logged to have developed themselves a reputation, And what you are about to hear at this time is actually a partial recitation. Things start out like this when boarding an Air Lucie & Co., Inc. flight, I know you won’t believe it and it really doesn’t even sound all that right. But this was Duncan’s welcome message, “Welcome to Air Lucie tonight, We have some of the best attendants, but none of ‘em are on this flight.” Interloper gave instructions as follows, “In the event of a sudden loss of pressure, Masks drop from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, wear it at your leisure. For your small children , secure your mask before assisting them with theirs, Those with more than one child along, pick your favorite and say your prayers. Once in the air the tone continued as Duncan announced, “Ladies and Gentlemen, We will turn down the lights, to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants.” And weather at our destination is going to be 50 degrees with some broken clouds, But we should have that fixed before our arrival and you join the big crowds. Lucie thanked her passengers, “We hope you enjoyed giving us the business, As much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride.” Said with all pleasantness. But the worst was yet to come from this bungling company of Lucie's renegades, The hardest part was getting out of the sky and safely to the airport gates. Duncan hammered that plane hard into the ground, Lucie's policy made him stand around, While from his passengers he dealt with frowns, glances and stares that wore him down. His eyes lightened up when a little old lady with a cane approached him with a frown, To him a question, “Sonny, did we truly land, or is it right that we really got shot down?” So if flying is something that you think you really want to do, you can really get a deal, If your brave enough to call Air Lucie & Co., Inc. where poor service gets you a steal. But as the crew was putting that old plane away, I heard something about someone’s fault. “It wasn’t the airlines fault, it wasn’t the flight attendants fault…. No, it was the asphalt!

It seems that Duncan is their pilot and Interloper their flight attendant Are you trying to get me beat up, Larry? Besides, if I'm going to be the pilot I want to pick my own flight attendants. Then we wouldn't have to turn lights down, anymore. Too funny, Larry! |

Hey, Larry said they have the best flight attendant, they just aren't on this flight. That's me and Midnightsun....right Larry????? You forgot to tell 'em though, that the pilot was drinking rum and coke, and the attendant was romancin all the women. Cute write Larry If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Ohhhh ok Mr. funnypants.. you wanna play rough huh? Making fun of my financial endeavors.. You neglected to tell them that you are one of the Top Executive Financial contributors to this airline. Perhaps its time we brought all of this to the light. Remember me with a smile on your face, or please don't remember me at all. |
