Flying lessons!!

We've learned a whole lot about important lessons in flying lately.

1. Don't fly in below 0 temperatures and wind chill, cause you'll freeze your butt and wings off! (Ouchness!)

2. Don't fly with cameras, laptops or other electronic stuff.

It, unlike a cat, does not have 9 lives when it falls. It just SMASHES and breaks, and gets you in trouble. (Whoops!)

3. Don't fly while wearing flip flops. This is probably the same reason why people don't wear them on roller coasters, either.

I know this because I just lost mine somewhere over New Jersey.

If it hit you in the head, person below me on Route 9, I'm totally super-sorry. They're cute, so if your foot is not too big, too small, or you're not anti-sparkles and pink (Squee!), why not wear them?

~NuDgE!

P.S. Not applicable to planes or helicopters. Applicable to Eraser butt-kicking bird kids ONLY.

P.P.S. Where the heck are all of the Erasers?! I think I gained five pounds sitting around eating peanut butter cups waiting around for a surprise attack.

This is...weird. No, CREEPTACULAR!!!

"Applicable to Eraser butt-kicking bird kids ONLY."

What, not strange angels? Tch. Way to be elitist, you guys.

Then again, I figured most of that stuff out after my first couple of months airborne, so...

Hmm. That came out really, catty, didn't it? I'd delete it, but seriously. I'd have thought some of that stuff was common sense.

Well, at least you guys aren't being harassed...er, for now.

Hey Nudge! Uh, when did u start using the word squee? Did u get it from my post username? I just started putting them up or w/e. If you did, cool! If u didn't, that's cool too! I made up a little song about a mushroom once and it talked about squee in it. Lol.

hmm... maybe next time the erasers show up, you could brain them with a shoe, i mean, Angel can tell them to plumet, Iggy and Gazzy can blow them up, Max and Fang can kick the snot out of them and you can go all pink-sparkely-foot-wear on their hairy butts! ^.^

Yeah, they'll come back. Next time, as mechanical robots called "flyboys." Ari will join your team. You guys will go back to the School. Something bad will happen.
How do I know? I just do.

What I'd give to kick some Eraser butt... you guys are seriously lucky...

Anonymous said...

Why don't you ask the dog why he can talk? Why have you never told angel it is wrong to manipulate people's minds? Why do you not fly somewhere far away from Itex companies? Shouldn't you amaze people with you flying abilites in exchange for protection? Just some thoughts. Maybe Angel should be the leader...

Anonymous said...

I wish I had your powers and erasers where I live. Then I could kick their smelly ol' wolf butts. And the best part is I would do it in midair. So if they fasll double pain.Oh yeah! It's realy creeptacular no erasers have shown up. If you want to kill an eraser go to the school. Not like I want to get you killed or anything,but,sorry my ideas somtimes suck. Just go find the clone Max. I mean wherever she is there are bound to be erasers near by looking for her to kill. Hey if Jeb's there why not kick his butt too. Oh and sorry about your flip-flops.




P.S. Tell everyone to post again.

Don't you think its kind of irrelavent that people other then the flock don't knkow about erasers, well anyways im bored, anyone else with wings got an idea of what to do, im really bored, peace

If the Erasers haven't struck lately then you should probably be on the lookout. They might be gathering their forces for one, giant, Eraser army! The Erasers might come at you by the thousands.
And then, when you're tired, a million will be sent in. You'll be forced into hiding and running for your lives.
Oh, wait. That's already what you're doing. Hiding and running. Never mind me. I'm generally a pretty big pessimist.
Seriously though. Look out.

hey thoose are what hit are car yesterday on route 9?(jk)ha, i thouhgt i heard a CABOOM! noise!lol im sorry to say, but i think your cute flipflops are too small for me. maybe try a bigger size next time when u stop by New Jersey!

Anonymous said...

Thanks for the warning. I'll keep in mind to look out for foam flip flops beaming me in the head, at least I'll know who's it is. Anyways, as for footwear, combat boots and sneakers would probably be the wisest choice.
1. boots can withstand anything and it'll probably hurt like hell to get kicked by one w/ the steal toes
2. sneakers will be light, easy to run with and probably easier to fly w/ also
3. flip flops you'll probably hurt yourself more when fighting than the erasers - who would want to give the awkward furballs that kinda satisfaction?
As for passing time, I say learn how to blow stuff up like Ig and Gas. Entertaining and useful.

P.S. Don't get caught be smokey the bear followers. Bad news.

lol finally u guys blog after wat a century. anyway gd tips and if i saw a pink ,sparkaly flipflop(yuck! pink! no way )fallin out of the sky i ewould probably freak out to.well cya l8ter and just remember to blog i wanna hear from iggy and fang some more.

Hi I have to ask are you guys menataly scared because of that message I gave about the Dr.Pepper comeing out of friends nose. I just had to ask. Any way why would you where fip flaps when your on the run. Fip flaps = pain. Oh my friend Max say I should Love them as much as I love. Dont tell her I said this but, if that was a joke I think I just died of born-doom.

g2g

Love you,
Mat

P.S. How do you flex a jal musle.

Anonymous said...

It's said that if one drops a penny off the Empire State building, it will go four inches into whatever it hits.

So how far would a flip-flop go into the road's surface, if it falls even farther than that?


If I come across a flip-flop shaped pothole, I'll know where it came from... eheheh... GOOD MUTANTS UNITE WHEEEE! And yes, I am in fact a mutant. I just can't fly.

i'm hopefully gonna get the scholarship and be a pilot soon. At least i don't need to worry about my boots falling out though the canopy!

I'm soooo sorry you lost you flip flops, Nudge!! I'm sure they were super cute!!

Anonymous said...

Nudge, this is just a warning, ... start running! the itex guys have figured out that people know a bit more about them, and they're destroying the old eraser models and replacing them with new ones!!!

Type 1 erasers that is. us type 2's are "too precious" to destroy but too human to use. they know we'd rebel.

I just dunno how the scientists can make the erasers like them since we're all brought up in cages. I suppose that's what too much dog does to you. (cat's rule!)

I dunno how samson can stand them, but he does. TRAITOR!!! So if you see a half cat thing in amongst the type 2 erasers, give it an extra hard kick. for the first time ever, samson betrayed delilah.. his own little sister!!!

REACH...for the keys

dear flock,

I love your books I read 'The Angel Experiment 5 times and 'Schools out- forever' about 4. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE them! Hey, can you guys visit Pennsylvania to visit me? And are you guys really really really real? because it is so convincing! I am like your biggest fan. and i cna't wait until your movie comes out in 2008.

And I think you rock Nudge! You must be good with computers, so am I! It funny when Fang say '(and she's only 11, people!)', I am only 11 like you also and you are so talkitive, just like I am. And I'm not abig pink flip-flop fna ;).

Max, you are strong and reliable, you are a great leader. I really like your character in the book. And Question, do you like Fang? Just curiouse, because it seems like it in the book ;)
(can someone read this to Iggy, please!)
Iggy, you are so smart and reliable also, although you are blind. You are great. Whithout you the flock would be dogfood!

Gazzy, why do you and Iggy like bombs so much? Its kind of funny. How big of an explosive did Big Boy cause? And you must be a great brother to Angel, I think she loves you very much. Also, do you and Total always fight?

Angel, you are so sweet! Its cool that you can read minds! You must have been really scared at the School, but Max and the lfock saved you, they would never stop trying to save you!

Fang, why are you so like, well I don't know how to explain it. You are so strong and determined. When something is bothering you, you try to stay strong and not go weak. The flock needs you. Do you like Max? Just couriouse. The song Disapear really describes you, it also describes me. You so cool!

Total, look behind you theres a rabbit, haha just teasing you. And word of advice when Max tells you to be wuiet, she means it!

Flock, you guys are great! I look up to you! Can't wait till your movie.

Mr. James Patterson, your books are great, can't wait till the third one!

Until later,
Your Fan,
Liz

Ouch...Nudge maybe you guys should stop flying in cold weather. Or at least bundle up when you do.

As for the computer...well that's kind of an obviouse out come. Yes, it's going to break if it falls from that high up.

Flip flops...? What are those?

Well...I guess I should go. Jordan...my Handler says I need to get back in my cage before the other whitecoats find out he let me out...

I hope I talk to you guys again.

Umm...cold might not be good for the batteries either Nudge. Anyway, sorry about the flip flop, but why did you wear a flip flop in 0-degree temperatures? The Erasers are probably doing the usual, licking their wounds and planning how they're going to try and hurt you next...so be careful! Retribution is a powerful weapon on the side of evil.
