TOWER
LADDER SAVES THE COPS FROM KAMIKAZE BIRD |
|
March 07, 2007
–
For the
last several years, a hostile bird has been traumatizing the Boys (and
Girls) in Blue as they come and go from headquarters.
This ferocious member of the Aves class reportedly
dive-bombs any target of
opportunity it sees passing through the station parking
lot. Previously assaulted individuals include Dirk the Lawnmower guy,
Mary the Meter Maid, Father Guido Sarducci, and the
entire SWAT team, who on one occasion were seen scattering for their
lives as they returned from a classified
mission. Luckily that day, FF/SWAT Medic Mike Freeza was on hand
to administer aid and pass out band aids and ace
bandages to the injured. So, at the request of the Cops and
the City Animal Control Officer, the Tower took time out
of their busy schedule to raise a ladder up to its
perch. The plan was to see if
there were any eggs in Tweeties nest and, if not, take
it down. The Tower Officer, feeling confident having
consulted the Flintstones guide to Pterodactyl nest
removal, ascended to the turntable
accompanied by one of Manassas' finest in full SWAT
regalia. The officer warned the Tower's Boss that the winged
fiend had large talons which could easily puncture his
gear and, thus, he was taking his life in his hands. Without regard for his
own safety, the Tower's Officer brought the bucket up to
the nest and came face to face with..... nothing but a
few eggs. Assuming that mom was out hunting small
game, which per
the Flintstones guide to Pterodactyls included but was
not limited to Water Buffalo, Whales, and small
fishing boats, the mission was quickly aborted
before she returned. As the ladder was being bedded,
the fierce creature was spotted looming overhead as
if planning its attack. Broken but not
defeated, the crowd of once hopeful police officers
scurried for cover. Seeing they're backup disappear
and having no real reason to hang out, the Tower
quickly got out of dodge before becoming the next
victims of this unruly creature. |
