PASS 2005: In-Flight Movie

Lately, most of my flying has been between Seattle and San Francisco, which apparently is not long enough for an in-flight movie.  On my way down to PASS in Texas this year, I took the red-eye so I was mostly interested in sleeping on the flight.  And so it was with much anticipation that I watched the drop-down video screens when the flight attendant said they would be showing a preview of the movie so we could decide whether to buy earphones if we hadn't brought our own (fortunately, I had my iPod, so I was good to go).

But I just had to laugh when I saw what movie it would be that day.  Here I was thinking it would be a recent release, and I hadn't been to the theaters for a while, so there was a good chance I had not seen it.  But Noooo...  The movie that we got to see that day was from 1974!  Now, I realize that some of you were not yet born in '74, but you still may have seen this.  It is a great comedy.

Take a guess.  Here, I'll give you some clues... 

“What a filthy job!”... “Could be worse.”...  “How?” ... “Could be raining.” [starts to rain]

“Put...the candle...back!”

“Elevate me.” ...  “Now?  Right here?”

Got it yet?  OK, here are some sure giveaways...

“Walk thees way”  [gestures with cane]

“Frau Blucher”  [horse whinneys]

“Abbie...someone”.

Are you kidding, that's a classic eye-gore

Oh. Where you going?... Oh, you men are all alike. Seven or eight quick ones and then you're out with the boys to boast and brag. YOU BETTER KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Oh... I think I love him.

"Are you done now"
"I wasn't doing anything to the..."
"Like he cares."
"But I wasn't..."
"Like I said, he won't..."
"Mind your manners!"
"Which one?"
I enjoy this conversation so much.
