Here at United Airlines, we take the possibility of a water landing very seriously. Here are two of our engineers, in these photos, testing out our new floatation device.

  1. I think it belongs to that idiot from Wainuiomata who writes all those silly posts.
  2. No, I don't think he's inside.
  3. It's back to New Zealand for this baby!
  4. Oops! Will it finish up down under?

No winners as of yet. A few winers, but they don't win anything..

Is this the best you jokers can do?

  1. "Hey, well fed buddy, do you think you can fix this one?" asks Arnold.
  2. "Let's get the top off and have a look," replies Ken.
  3. "Perfect pitch!" the two musical friends joke simultaneously.
  4. Arnie surveys their handy work. "Well, lol, at least the f holes are facing up!" adds Ken with a fair amount of tongue in cheek, so much so that the bulge challenges his tummy. This'll be a day that both men will remember for years to come.

Default One more shot:

  1. "Arnie, your new suitcase is cool! It just looks so much like a bass! Pity there isn't some way of adding a neck! I love it! Really do! Is it heavy to carry?"
  2. "Nah, it's fine. It just needs a handle."
  3. "Let's see if it's waterproof." "Nooooo Ken, don't!"
  4. "Bugger you Ken, my wallet's in there!"

Default My last attempt ever:

  1. "But Arnie, you said that you loved me. So, we have lunch together... a few wines and I'm starting to feel relaxed. Then you drop this bombshell! What? I don't really understand. You want a 'menage a trio' involving half a bass? Sorry Arnie but this is getting very kinky!"
  2. "Okay, okay, so we hold it like this. What happens next?"
  3. "No Arnie, I'm not going in the pool! Not with you and this half bass! Arnie! You're not serious!"
  4. "Come on Ken, don't be a spoil sport! Just give it a few minutes, it'll be fun!"

Default Ah! I see, it actually runs backwards...

4. "Ah, isn't it beautiful! Like the lady in the lake! I wish we could save it, take it home..." says Arnie.
"Maybe a Souix rain dance performed backwards would do the trick?" chirps in Ken from out of shot.
3. "Hey! I think it's working! Look! It's floating!" says Arnie.
2. "Got you, you little beauty,what a find!" both men mutter with delight.
1. "Quick! Maybe if we both point at it, and both of us promise to never shave again, a genie will appear!" says Ken hopefully.
