And here we kneel and kow tow in Wong Tai Sin Temple, so close to the temple of the aviation Gods of Kai Tak, and await for the return of Master Aviator Ho Lung Chun. Your wisdom is needed in these dark days of the Pig Year, for we have been told that pigs cannot fly.

We await a sign, Master.

Should Anti Collision Lights be renamed, or should the manufacturers be sued for misleading advertising?

Pigs fly, just not very far or very fast under their own power; but given enough thrust - something akin to that you might get from external, re-usable boosters - pigs could be used to resupply the International Space Station.

Whatever happened to Ho Lung Chun? Did he upgrade to bigger better things?

Industry sources say he is engaged in R&D solving numerous problems on the R88 project with Capt Hollywood. All very hush-hush.

I have already asked this question of the great Master Ho, but had no response! I am now hoping he may be able to shed light on how to solve the debonding issues on the AW139......

I think 30% is the acceptable level, so half a mind would put you at the top of the class

Ho, why is it called a "near miss" and not a "near hit". Surely if I nearly missed him, I hit him, right?

Serious questions

Who's inside Humphrey?

Why is orange jam called marmalade?

Why do dogs have black lips?

If a pig loses his voice is he disgruntled?

Why, why, why, Delilah?

Another question for the Master

Why does the Porridge Bird lay it's eggs in the air? Is it proper to send out invitations to the divorce party if you use the same guest list as your wedding party? And should I give all those toaster ovens back? And speaking of returning things, has Grimes ever gotten his lights back? CV-580

That is an easy one.

It is because we are all Bozos on this bus!

Anyway, the question is, "Why does the Porridge Bird lay its eggs in the air?"

I bet you forgot to deflate your shoes before boarding... what a Bozo....

So, that makes two of us...

Anyone else out there who is/was a fan of "The Firesign Theatre"? Hideo Knock-knock's Voltadrome? The Ames Gunshop, where Ed aims to please and so does Louise?
