My two are stalled, I'm teaching again and have to finish my PhD by the very same date... Also my paint order for the tropical scheme hasn't arrived yet. Must drop a line to the shop...

Darn the new office web filter - no eBay allowed!! (OK, I rarely buy there anyway, but like to lurk sometimes!) Are you flaunting another Ho?

Prone pilot ramming bombers would need a lot of chapstick to keep their lips from sticking to the plexi.

Ramming bombers huh?? I guess you strap in and kiss your a$$ goodbye. Actually, I guess you'd have to do that the other way around wouldn't you...

The Navigator: What? Over? Did you say it's "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! 

And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough... 

 The tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go! 

 What the Censored happened to the MOJOs I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you , we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my a$$ from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. , Get me some toothpicks, hand me that Chap Stik... 
Maj. Mike: Navigator's right. Psychotic... but absolutely right. We gotta get this HO done. Now we could do it with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part! 
The Navigator: We're just the guys to do it. 
Sprue-ce Goose: [stands up] Yeah, I agree. Let's go get 'em. 
Carsanab: Let's do it. 
The Navigator: [shouting] "Let's do it"! 

I have many books and my Lair smells of rich mahogany!!! Stay thirsty my fellow MOJOs!
