It was HORRIBLE! The terror from the skies!!! The PUKE!!!

It was just like me from the future said. We couldn't stop @Muy Petunia from taking flight. She just wasn't ready for it -- she's barely rated Level I -- and there's no way should should have attempted the double barrel axel roll over the apple orchard. The air sickness got to her, and she lost it. And she had had a huge breakfast apparently.

Premeditative Meteorologist Dylan was having a hard time controlling the breezes, which only distributed Petunia's emissions more thoroughly over all of us. The disgusting rain of vomit soaked everything in the area. EVERYTHING.

@Nova Toaster and Morgan were in their HQ tent, debriefing me from the future, so they were spared. I was in the open-air control tower, trying to talk Petunia down, and I'm afraid I got the worst of it.

There's no way this can be allowed to happen. Even once. I need to find a way back into the past and prevent this from happening. Tonight I'll be studying the wind pattern diagrams and the time stream sigils and with Dylan's help, I must find a way to blow myself back into the past and prevent this tragedy from ever occurring.

Tomorrow's Intramural Flying Club is cancelled. Like anyone would want to fly over this barf strewn wasteland. I will take to the skies and the winds of time and make this right.

Some unanticipated gusts today - Premeditated Meteorologist Dylan was a little off his game. I'll be scheduling a performance review with him about----

NO WAIT!! STOP!!! *I* AM Randy Bernstein! FROM THE FUTURE!!! I got blown in from this Friday on a particularly strong wind. And I am here to tell you: DO NOT LET @Muy Petunia attempt the double barrel axel roll over the apple orchard tomorrow!! The HORROR! The TRAGEDY!! In fact, under no circumstances let @Muy Petunia anywhere near Intramural Flying Club tomorrow, no matter how much she pleads. I bring you this warning FROM THE FUTURE!!!

....well, thank you, uh, Randy from the future. I, uh... I think I better contact @Lydia Raivata, or someone from Time Team, like @Nova Toaster....

Today was certainly smooth sailing for Intramural Flying Club - at least if you stayed beneath the massive ice dome accidentally created by Dylan, our Premeditated Meteorologist, when his warm air mass came in contact with the super-chilled hyper-moist air mass above it.

The ice was mighty clear, so there have been some broken noses and goose eggs and mild concussions, which just underscores the need for proper gear when flying - helmets, gloves, shoulder pads, the whole shebang.

Be safe! Fly high!

Meet us all again in the apple orchard at 11am tomorrow morning for more beautiful Solstice Break intramural flying!

Well, this post is coming a bit later than I'd have liked. Got caught in a Majnoon and it didn't let me go till Paducah. There was a whole bunch of Conscious Wind activity blowing into Paducah from all directions - Jawnaws, Jannins, Chinuks, Zetters. I had to wait it out in the coffee shop on Murray State campus till it all blew over, and then it was me-powered all the way back. AND BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED.

But seriously folks, @Dylan, our Premeditated Meteorologist, can't be held responsible for an invasion of mischievous air elementals! I heard he did an excellent job of keeping things sunny, fair, and clear here on our campus.

Join us again tomorrow at 11am in the apple orchard!

This is GREAT weather for Intramural Flying Club! Especially since we have recently gained the services of a Premeditated Meteorologist. Psyhigh is lucky to have one of the brightest rising stars in Premeditated Meteorology, and he's arranging blue skies/low wind for the upcoming week!

So take advantage of our advantage, and join us for some great flying all week. Enjoy the best of Solstice Break by "taking the leap" at whatever level you're at. The airspace above the apple orchard will be reserved for beginners, but we've got clearance up to 30,000 feet within 10 miles for our advanced members.

Meet us at 11am every day this week in the apple orchard! Hope to see you there.

Aside from the unexpected downpour, I'd say today's Intramural Flying Club was a total success!

Who could have foreseen that the landing strip would have become such a mud puddle, huh? Only three of our members require traction, not counting @Harry Berger, the observer from the National Levitation Safety Board, who was in fact standing in a designated "no standing" zone during the landing fiasco. However, we're sure that after he regains consciousness he'll been giving us a big A-OK in his report to the board.

Meanwhile, it was a tremendous turnout, and after everyone's gotten out of their muddy clothes and had a bath, we hope that you'll join your fellow flying comrades in finishing off the remainder of the cider and pumpkin spice cookies, which we'll be sharing in the McKenzie Lounge (the one with the fireplace) after dinner tonight.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Just a quick reminder that the Intramural Flying Club will be meeting in the Apple Orchard in just a short while. Because of recent questions concerning the safety protocols we have in place, an observer from the National Levitation Safety Board will be in attendance and taking notes.

But don't let that bother you! Come on down to the Apple Orchard and dress appropriately - looks like we're getting into scarf weather! Cookies and cider will be provided.

Micro-Cyclone Update

We'd like to thank everybody who turned out for Intramural Flying Club earlier today, and we're sure the students who are still missing will be located very soon.

It started as a beautiful morning, and Mr. Lu himself was leading small groups of new students on Shorty Hops around the apple orchard. We start them off with just "big jumps" over the trees, but then work up to mid-air stops, hovering, and directional changes. It's important for new students to understand our our air-traffic rules, right-of-way, and safety and privacy procedures.

Unfortunately, the icy micro-cyclones appeared without warning, and most of the new students were quickly sucked up and dispersed. The micro-cyclones may have been generated by the miniature black hole infestation that has been plaguing the school lately.

If you're a student that has been affected by this extreme-weather issue, merely concentrate on your Universal Positioning Mantra and an extraction team will be with you soon. Please do not attempt to return to school without assistance. Even if you've only ended up across town, it's possible you've landed in a different time or dimension and any actions you take could have an irreparable (or at least complicated) impact on our space-time habitation nest.

Thanks for your patience. And see you next week!

Thanks @Big Jim, that's right! The Intramural Flying Club is meeting 11am Saturday morning in the apple orchard. All new students are welcome - we'll be keeping it at tree-top level so no fancy flying will be required.

As for the weather, it's been alternately sunny, freezing cold, or pouring down rain, so come dressed for the full spectrum of possible meteorological disturbances.

See you tomorrow!

I'd like to apologize to all the members of the Intramural Flying Club -- and to all the students of Psyhigh -- for the actions of Howard "Howie" Mulligan this afternoon.

This is especially difficult as Mr. Mulligan has been a lifelong idol of mine. Certainly, he is quite old, and may in fact be suffering from some kind of dementia, but the way that he interacted with the female members of the club was entirely inappropriate. As was relieving himself while flying over the school. I have personally apologized to the students impacted, and have cleaned up all that I could find.

Mr. Mulligan's historical significance should not be overshadowed by his behavior today. Setting the transatlantic records that he did during the 60's and his amazing high speed maneuverability techniques transformed the world of free flying in the 20th century. Let's not let his thoroughly inexcusable actions at Psyhigh sully his amazing legacy.
