So long ago, I don’t remember the date
Oh wait a minute, yes I do, the eighth
A few of us, we took a little camping kind of trip
It was up to me to see we were equipped

I packed granola and some matches and like six cases of beer
A camera in case we saw some deer
A first aid kit, some iodine
A pocketknife, a spool of twine
Two Brinkmann flashlights that I bought online

YOU NEED AT LEAST A COUPLE
ONE IS NOT ENOUGH WE’LL
KEEP ONE IN THE TRUCK, ANOTHER ONE
IN MY DUFFLE
MAYBE ONE CAN BE FOR
WHEN PEOPLE HAVE TO PEE OR
WALK AROUND AT NIGHT
THAT’S ONE FLASHLIGHT

My friends said: Dude
It feels like maybe two flashlights
Is overkill, we’ll just be overnight
But I said darkness can disorient
It’s sometimes hard to find your tent
The pitch-black woods can give a guy a fright
And they’re like yeah, sure, that’s true
And we get that, we do
That justifies one flashlight, but why two?
I screamed ‘til I was out of breath
WHEN IT GETS DARK I’M SCARED TO DEATH
I NEED TWO FLASHLIGHTS, YOU DON’T LIKE IT THEN SCREW YOU

YOU NEED AT LEAST A COUPLE
ONE IS NOT ENOUGH WE’LL
KEEP ONE IN THE TRUCK, ANOTHER ONE
IN MY DUFFLE
MAYBE ONE CAN BE FOR
WHEN PEOPLE HAVE TO PEE OR
FIND THEIR WAY AT NIGHT
WE’RE TAKING TWO FLASHLIGHTS

So click yon mouse tubeward for the visual equivalent of 6.9 million words about the Air Hogs Switchblade RC Plane. It can fly like a plane or spin like a UFO, and change from one to the other mid-flight. Which had us worried for a minute: what if real aliens have access to this kind of technology? Stands humanity any chance against their mid-air morphing onslaught?

Then we saw this video by our Real Actual Field Tests team, and breathed a little easier. It seems the Air Hogs Switchblade RC Plane has one weakness- well, OK, two. The other one is that you need to buy two different-colored Air Hogs if you want to race them, because the same-colored ones are all on the same radio frequency. But its other weakness is far more fatal, not to mention green and leafy…
