JohnMitchell 14 #33 August 29, 2006 I'm an air traffic controller during the week. We quote that movie all the time. My favorite is when the traffic is building and it's getting a little intense, the classic "I picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue." I've used that in the middle of more than one emergency. And stop calling me Shirley. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airtwardo 6 #34 August 29, 2006 Quotetwo summers ago I fly next to leslie nielson in first class on an AA fligth from DFW to PHX... he was on his way home, has a house on a golf course in paradise valley or something. was the funniest 2 hours of my life. he is so hilarious. talked about all his movies. he said that although airplane was such a classic, the naked gun was his favorite movie he ever made and the body condom scene was his favorite schtick. he carries a fart maker in his pocket and as we walked up the concourse together after his flight, he kept making it go off as he meandered up the way. freaking hysterical! *** !0-12 years ago I was coming back from a SCUBA trip at Truk Island. Changed planes in Hawaii, and as I'm sitting down after stuffing all my junk in the overhead....I realized that the very friendly older gentleman sitting next to me is none other than Loyd Bridges! After a brief introduction, I told him (perhaps a little too enthusiatically) that I was a long time fan and REALLY enjoyed his work... Looking at the PADI hat I was wearing, he gave me a wink and said, "Don't tell me...'Sea Hunt' changed your life...." "No Sir" I replied..... ~~"AIRPLANE DID!"

lawrocket 3 #36 August 29, 2006 Here's the exchange: Joey: Wait a minute! I know you. You're Kareem Abdul-Jabar. You played basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers. Murdock(Kareem): I'm sorry son, but you must have me confused with someone else. My name is Roger Murdock. I'm the co-pilot. Joey: You are Kareem! I've seen you play. My dad's got season tickets. Murdock : I think you should go back to your seat now Joey. Right Clarence? Oveur: Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, he's not bothering anyone, let him stay here. Murdock : But just remember, my name is ROGER MURDOCK. I'm an airline pilot. Joey: I think you're the greatest, but my dad says you don't work hard enough on defense. And he says that lots of times, you don't even run down court. And that you don't really try . . . except during the playoffs. Murdock: The hell I don't!! ( grabs joey by collar ) (whispers) LISTEN KID! I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walton and Denier up and down the court for 48 minutes. (Let's go of Joey). Oever : Joey, do you like movies about gladiators? (the timing of this line was BRILLIANCE) And my favorite all-time movie quotes ever... "Sheeeet, man, that honkey mus' be messin' my old lady got to be runnin' col' upside down his head!" ("GOLLY, THAT WHITE FELLOW SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM MY WIFE OR I WILL PUNCH HIM.) "Hey Holm, I can dig it! You know he ain't gonna lay no mo' big rap upon you man!" ("YES, ARHTUR, HE IS WRONG FOR DOING THAT.") "I say hey sky, s'other say I wont say I pray to J. I get the same ol' same ol." ("I KNEW A MAN IN A SIMILAR PREDICAMENT, AND HE ENDED UP BEING SORRY.") "Knock yourself a pro slick. Gray matter back got perform' us' down I take TCBin', man." ("DON'T BE NAIVE ARTHUR. EACH OF US FACES A CLEAR MORAL CHOICE.") "You know wha' they say: See a broad to get that bodiac? Lay der down an' smack 'em yack 'em." ("EARLY TO BED, EARLY TO RISE, MAKES A MAN HEALTHY, WEALTHY AND WISE.") "Col' got to be! Yo!" ("HOW TRUE!") "Sheeeeeeet!" ("GOLLY") Jive2: "S'mo fo butter layin' to the bone. Jackin' me up. Tightly." Randi: "I'm sorry I don't understand." Jive1: "Cutty say he cant hang." Barbara Billingsley/June Cleaver (of all people): "Oh stewardess, I speak jive." Randi: "Ohhhh, good." Mrs. Cleaver: "He said that he's in great pain and he wants to know if you can help him." Randi: "Would you tell him to just relax and I'll be back as soon as I can with some medicine." Mrs. Cleaver: "Just hang loose blood. She gonna catch up on de rebound wit de medcide." Jive2: "What it is big mamma (A nickname for an ex was "Big Momma" - I was 22, she was an ancient 28), my mamma didn't raise no dummy, I dug her rap." Mrs. Cleaver: "Cut me some slack, jack! Chump don wan no help, chump don git no help. Jive ass dude don got no brains, anyhow." My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, last one from me... first class from nashville to NY laguardia. at the last second before closing the door before departure, katie couric waltzs on w/ her hispanic hunk of an intern. she was in nashville filming her first prime time special (on shania twain or someone similar). she take the seat directly in front of me, 2A, and cabana boy takes 2B. she is facing me as she adjust things in her seat. she stares at me and winks, and I look at her and stutter out, "you're not um, who I think you are,.... are you?" without missing a beat, she says, "no. I'm much better looking than that old katie couric!" then she extends her hand and introduces herself. great big smile, perfect teeth. gives me an autograph w/ lots of X's and O's on it, and i'm just ga-ga. She turns around in her seat, flips off her expense shoes, turns to cabana boy and says, "intern, rub my feet!" he obliges. she peaks her head through the seats and asks my seatmate some casual questions. being the asshole that i am, when there is a lull in their conversation I say that it was because of her that I had a colonoscopy .
