Duck's new appendage is not allergic to landings without grass. Maybe there is a mutation in the disease. <br /><br />Maybe its the water in Punaluu/Haaula. All I know is a gotta have it!Thomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07508629374134042936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20110414.post-62567883963066494312012-10-04T09:03:57.434-10:002012-10-04T09:03:57.434-10:00Hmm, after seeing the video and the tracklog I con...Hmm, after seeing the video and the tracklog I conjecture that the symbiote has one one more siblings disguised by other names and are working as a team to spread their infestation. Clearly they have some sort of hypoxic component that inhibits detection by their hosts, are adaptable enough to render any vaccine ineffective and thus render the investigator's pronouncement that "everything is OK" extremely suspect.Puka Waihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039269346520761103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20110414.post-22436826771777279492012-10-03T09:09:04.913-10:002012-10-03T09:09:04.913-10:00Cute story.

You can see how much deeper Duck flew both in Nanakuli and Waianae. I guess next time I need to man up a bit more and go deep like that! As it was, I didn't think we were going anywhere til I saw how deep Duck was going behind Nanakuli. I tried to follow, but on the way back there, a cloud sucked me up above 3,700 feet, which seemed like enough to start across. I got to the back of the little valley ridges in Waianae with more than two grand, and that's when I really should have done what Duck did and dive into the very back. But I thought I had enough to cross to the valley wall and climb up and over to Makaha, so I pressed on. But man, my track shows the end of my story: I lost a thousand feet in that last little crossing! Not sure where that sink was coming from. I had to limp back to land in the nice grassy park in Waianae Homestead. Later I saw Duck come in to that valley wall a bit higher than I had, and he stuck it out there in zeroes for what seemed like an hour before squeaking his way around into Makaha. Nice one, dude!Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06249789335111913420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20110414.post-10187725148519214072012-10-03T08:40:19.487-10:002012-10-03T08:40:19.487-10:00@JJJ - I think Duck was so high from that flight h...@JJJ - I think Duck was so high from that flight he had to expend some energy to get to sleep. Doubt it had anything to do with you're "B****ing" at all. For the record Professor Duck didn't have a pod harness, more proof you really don't need one to go far in Hawaii.Waianae Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15275430122119016694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20110414.post-58963661473432545982012-10-03T08:25:03.765-10:002012-10-03T08:25:03.765-10:00Man if you guys and gals are trying to stop me fro...Man if you guys and gals are trying to stop me from bitching this was the wrong way to do it. <br /><br />A quick cry on the chat, off to bed after several glasses of wine, to awake with such a yarn in ink.<br /><br />Oh the joys of a morning coffee, after days of not flying to know that your fellow monkeys are making tracks.<br /><br />Another story of great content and quality. The underlying truth of Alex's affliction woven into such a tale made me jealous and elated. <br /><br />I think we may need to extend a title beyond just 'Duck'. Dr. Duck or perhaps Professor Duck.<br /><br />I congratulate you on your flight and thank thee for the story.<br /><br /><br />JJ JamesonThomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07508629374134042936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20110414.post-54901983694998147932012-10-03T08:11:59.854-10:002012-10-03T08:11:59.854-10:00just luv the way the tune adds to the story !
