What...

...is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

This question is a bit misleading in some respect because velocity and speed are more or less the same. The difference as I recall is that with speed you travel a distance but with velocity your overall distance travelled may be zero. e.g.. in the case of something travelling in a circular trajectory.

So the addition of the term velocity after airspeed isn’t required in this instance and makes the question appear more complicated than it is.

Wrong, Velocity would be a measure of speed with referance to something "thought of" as stationary, say the ground for instance.
Airspeed (from a pilot) is your speed relitive to the moving airmass around you.
For example a plane moving over the ground at a velocity of 250 miles per hour;
with a tail wind of 10 miles per hour would have an airspeed of 240 miles per hour.
The same plane with a 10 mile per hour head wind would have an airspeed of 260 miles per hour.

Well it doesn't change the fact the question was over complicated and I'm not sure it totally contradicts what I said anyway.

Poor planning with a hint of masochism.

Me and Mr Jinger are almost on a first name basis so I can put in a good word for you if you want.

Actually I've always known about the dog in the window. I believe his name was Scott, because his owner would yell at him often.

Answer: because you are horny.

Well, Raechard, I was talking about you.

Are you on a first-name basis with yourself?

Nooo he hates me that Raechad. I’ve tried bribing him and stuff but he won’t have a bar of me. I’ll put your offer of servitude to him and see what he says though.

Try dipping yourself in chocolate magic shell. Maybe he'll like you better when he's crunching through your sweet cocoa-flavored shell.

As for offering my servitude ... errr ... how about if I offer something else just as valuable ... like ... a couple of rubber bands and a beaded gold belt?

But servitude is the gift that keeps on giving it is like a book token in that respect.

Elfwood: Amy 'Libiya' Wolford, 'deep secrets 2', Stories She stood up to reveal that she was wearing a slinky one-shoulder black dress with a plunging neckline and a beaded gold belt slung low on her waist. ...

Rubberbands?
