    Haven't been in St Joseph's in some time, but in the 90s I thought it was the best small-town hospital in America, particularly for closed head trauma. All those guys trained under John Jones, who is the best in the world.

    I feel like a couple of members haven’t seen Forrest Gump.

    You think that subtle reference that a couple don't seem to get is bad? Try being an airline pilot and getting a blank stares from "Airplane!" references.

    I am a Texas and aggie (gradual school) Both Schools changed my life for the better. I can say the insistence that I buy an aggie ring when I ignored the opportunity was inspiring. i received a loan application type thing, financed by a University ORG that touched me. Deeply. But a lot of the cultish activity is unhelpful in my opinion.

    HIC listen, and you listen close: Flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

    Those that haven’t should watch it over the holiday break. Great movie. If not they should go back to Green-BOW, Ala-BAMA!

    While "Airplane!" was spoofing the air disaster movies of the 70s to a degree, it really was spoofing the movie "Zero Hour!". Plot, characters, even some exact dialog.

    Thanks for the info. My husband (a pilot) and I have seen Airplane lots of times. Might be fun to watch Zero Hour!. My favorite Airplane scene is "Roger"/Kareem Abdul-Jabbar responding to Joey's comment: "I think you're the greatest but my old man says you don't play hard enough on defense...and you don't really try except in the playoffs".

    And then they came out with varoom. Still not as good as baseball cards in the spokes.

    Remember the interpretation scene involving "Jive"?

    < in deep voice > "SHEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIT" < in deep voice >

    ( GOLLY! ) :smile1:

    My brother and I adopted "golly" to our vocabulary years ago for certain situations.

    "You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it."
