Airplane!

I'll be flying myself in exactly two weeks today, and I thought that watching this film would help to put me in the right spirit.

I'm almost ashamed to admit that the part that nearly kills me every time isn't the "stop calling me Shirley" banter or even Lloyd Bridge's increasingly drastic addictions, but that hapless mechanic who struggles with the aircraft's "bonnet" at the start . And that girl scout fight is the stuff of legends. I'm not so sure about Otto the auto-pilot, though...I find him a tad creepy.

I really wish I knew how to speak Jive - it's just about the coolest language devised by humankind.
