Kirby's Chat thing

Episode 1 – Pilots

Hello there. As this is the first episode (hopefully of many) of my little rambles, I decided that since it's known to Americans and various other races who support Prime Time, as a 'pilot episode', I would make it about Pilots!

So, pilots. Yes, those men (obviously we're in the land of generalisations) who get into those flying things known as planes and fly around a bit. I've always been impressed by said people, (even though it's quite obvious I can sort of fly anyway) considering they have to be in a big vehicle, full of fuel, and fly so fast that the temperature rises so fast, it would suffice to boil my kettle. In 5 seconds!

So my question is – Why do we seem to underestimate them? There will surely be people who say 'I could do that!', yes, but it seems to be most people. To fly around takes an awful lot of bravery and stuff, so everyone can't just say, 'I'm going of for a fly now, in my antique fighter jet. I'll meet you in Newcastle!'

No. To fly, you need to be trained, and either brave or...whatever else you need to be. I mean, the training is pretty gruelling. And for some unknown reason, they televised it at one point. Why? Will some people do anything to get on the telly? Isn't that really what all those so-called 'game-shows' are for? To get every-day people on telly, embarrass them in any way for a cheap laugh? I think so!

So, the moral of this short, 2-minute, one-way discussion is, respect the flying men more. Please, they need it. (At least I think they do. It's always nice to respect people). It's all well and good making various films and TV series about flying men (the main character most likely played by Tom Cruise) arguing and stuff, but I mean to REALLY respect them. In real life, not while staring at Tom Cruise.

So, I hope you enjoyed this little train-wreck of a … whatever this is. Trust me, it looks a lot longer on my writer thing. It really does. Anyway, leave a comment if you can, (also known as R&R to some people) and we'll see how this goes. Really, we will. If it goes well, I just might make this a full series. If you want, you can PM me with episode ideas. I think you all know how to.

I've been Kirby, you've been Person Reading Text, and I'm gonna go...lounge...on my flying star. Bye!
