Alright, he's gone. I'll let you Loungers in on a little secret, some of us Wild board posters have always had a secret fantasy of driving an OT thread's post count through the roof when there's no moderators around. I think we got one of em' up to about 1300 once, but that's been about it. We're only at 350 right now, but with your help, we can probably get it to 2,000 in just a couple hours. So you folks just do what you do best and before long we'll take down HF (or whatever happens when you have too many posts in a thread).
Charlie: Excuse me, Lieutenant. Is there something wrong?
Maverick: Yes ma'am, the data on the MiG is inaccurate.
Charlie: How's that, Lieutenant?
Maverick: Well, I just happened to see a MiG 28 do a...
Goose: We!
Maverick: Uh, sorry, Goose. *We* happened to see a MiG 28 do a 4g negative dive.
Charlie: Where did you see this?
Maverick: Uh, that's classified.
Charlie: It's what?
Maverick: It's classified. I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.
Iceman: You two really are cowboys.
Maverick: What's your problem, Kazanski?
Iceman: You're everyone's problem. That's because every time you go up in the air, you're unsafe. I don't like you because you're dangerous.
Maverick: That's right! Ice... man. I am dangerous.

We had a useless thread at 2050 or so last week but it disappeared.

Slider: Crashed and burned! Huh, Mav?
Maverick: Hey, Slider.
[sniffs]
Maverick: You stink!

Title Card: On March 3, 1969 the United States Navy established an elite school for the top one percent of its pilots. Its purpose was to teach the lost art of aerial combat and to insure that the handful of men who graduated were the best fighter pilots in the world. They succeeded. Today, the Navy calls it Fighter Weapons School. The flyers call it: TOP GUN.

I'm not sure that pissing Gopher off like that is such a good idea.
Air Boss Johnson: Two of your snot-nose jockeys did a fly-by on my tower at over 400 KNOTS! I want somebody's butt, I want it now, I've HAD IT!
[storm out, then bumps into a Yeoman and spills coffee all over his pants]
Air Boss Johnson: DAMN! That's TWICE! I WANT SOME BUTTS!
When what you want is bigger than the thing that's stopping you, then that's it. You've done it. You're unstoppable.

Because you've reached your expiry date.

I hope she googles the transcript of her one person show someday and finds this thread.
Charlie: [Maverick and Goose have just successfully serenaded Charlie with their rendition of "You've Lost That Loving Feeling."] Sit down! I love that song! How long have you two been doing this act?
Maverick: Oh, since uh...
Charlie: Puberty?
Maverick: Right, puberty.

Gopher is only a figment of our imagination though, or maybe it's the other way around. Either way punishment will be dealt out. But I'm the one that started the fire. Hmm. . . . . .
