It's Monday, here's the 'Airwolf' intro
Monday is the most painful reminder of Monday. That's how I think about it.
With that being said, what's a better way of nixing those Monday morning blues than listening and watching to the intro of a great 1980s TV show. In this case "Airwolf."
For those of you who might not remember, "Airwolf" followed the adventures of Stringfellow Hawke (Stringfellow?) and Dominic Santini. From then on, it gets really, really complicated. More complicated than I remember it being. Long story short, they fly a supersonic helicopter developed by an arm of the CIA.
The concept of a helicopter that can break the sound barrier is a little silly. Maybe full-on stupid. But for an 8-year-old it was incredible.
The show also had a Nintendo game as well, which was next to impossible. "Airwolf" the game was not nearly as good as "Airwolf" the show. Landing the copter was next to impossible and for being such an impressive government creation, it sure lacked in terms of ammunition and arsenal.
