More like LOLwolf

From my list of journalistic achievements, I can now check off making reference to "Blue Thunder," as accomplished in Tuesday's story about the po-po's plans for an expensive new toy on one of its helos. (Apologies to Lt. Bob Mulhall, flight operations chief, who discouraged me from referring to it as a "toy.")

Unfortunately there's more after the jump ...

Although I'm pretty handy with these Internets, I was unaware of the long-running, shared contempt between Blue Thunder and Airwolf fans. We're talking vintage Gen-X stupidity nearly on par with the infamously divisive "Pirate v. Ninja debate, or "PvN."

Give me a break. Airwolf? That heap of junk coasted on the vapor-trails of Blue Thunder's 360-degree looping awesomeness.

What are you going to do when Roy Scheider toggles Blue Thunder into "whisper mode," Airwolf? Play that stupid theme song some more? Pwned. GG.

*chk* *chk* - Catch you later!

I prefer "Airwolf"..but what do I know? I love "Hardcastle & McCormick", too.
If I'm as hot as the chief thinks I am, he should have no problem finding me with his new equipment.
The chief winked at Dianne on his way out of the City Council meeting on Monday.
AirWolf totally - Jan Michael Vincent was hot...then he succumbed to the drink. But during AirWolf - day-yum! Oh, was there an aircraft, or just cute boys?
