How To Make a Pun
This contest is open to everyone. Here's a handy dandy guide on how to make a pun: Learn to Pun
Rules for the PUN-test:
- If you hope to win a prize, your pun must be your original work
- Puns must be relevant to the topic of the week to win a prize, but they can be very loosely related.

- Hot tip, I buy BTC on pro.coinbase.com, then send it to bittrex to trade for Steem and send steem to my wallet here. It’s the most efficient way with the fewest fees I’ve found. If you’ve found better, let me know. - I learned from someone else that buying LTC and sending it to bittrex then trading it for BTC then trading that for STEEM is the least-fees way. Can someone confirm?

I love anything related to aviation. I heard that the USA has a series of experimental aircraft and rockets that are used to test and evaluate new technologies and aerodynamic concepts. That is all I know at this point so unfortunately, I cannot X-PLANE it to you further.
Ba da bing...you've been punned, you see it is funny because the aircraft used in this program are known as X-Planes.
I'm new to the platform heard you were setting up a landing strip, so I decided to fly over. Normally I'm a big picture guy, you know the type that keeps him self 30,000 feet above the fray. But I decided to Buzz, I just hope my pun does crash and burn in an ugly wreak!
How was that for my 3rd comment on steem?
Not too bad... this stuff is just plane fun.

I had got home from the dispensary with the newest Super-Duper strength Ganja. I got dressed in my best duds and went out to the club in search for a honey to vibe with.
Met this shorty. Wwe hit it off. Asked her to take the ride back to my crib. At my place, for the 1st time, she smoked the wacky weed, loved it and got way way wrecked.
I ended up marrying the Girl, and to this day my wife says on how we met that: She lost her cherry on a Trip to the Mile High Club by a Fly guy.

This week's topic is so fun that it is contagious. I think we will have a big turnout and a lot of punsters will catch this FLEW.

Gregg Loucanis the Gay Olympian who won all the those Gold Medals on the Spring board at the Pool. Later in life unfortunately had Trolls who didn't believe in equal rights! They made up a false story that he was a Terrorist. But he fought back by continuing to do good acts and proving them wrong in his daily actions, supporting others and showing a great moral compass. becoming a beacon for the LBGT community. It goes to show you even Dive Bombers can fly High!

Old Man Peller used to raise hell with the local government. He went to all the meetings. Finally, someone told him if he didn't like the way things were, he should run for office. He did. Now, I'm not saying I am proPeller, and I'm not saying I am against...

Here's a story about the early days of aviation. Supposedly The Red Baron's plane was always in top shape. because he was playing plane in hanger with his mechanic. Few believed it, but when he took to the sky's, it was obvious He was a "Bi, Plain" and simple.
Yea I. Propped that story up high,
