Post by: AtomSmasher on October 19, 2007, 05:26:14 pm
Main page says "Hi Frank!" so I was just wondering.

Mine was posted first and in the right section  :P

Actually, I've already seen and "contributed" to that thread since the main forum gets a lot more traffic then here.

Sorry, i should have explained my intention, and probably of posted this link in the other thread as this is in the right position, but i was just placing the link there so anyone finding this thread would actually at least find some speculation on it.

Also let this be a bump for wondering who frank is.. unless saint was being sarcastic them im guessing someone got into the front news.

No need to apologize, it was obvious you had no ill intentions.  We never did find out who Frank is...and we probably never will  :(

Frank is someone I met in real life who is interested in the hobby, so I threw his name up there :)

Ah ha!  I knew it was part of an elaborate conspiracy, all the pieces are now becoming clear.

Who does this Saint guy think he is cavorting around and acting like this place is his own personal messaging system? Someone should report him to the site admin.

Surely you don't mean that.

I keep waiting for shmokes to respond with "I do mean that, and don't call me Shirley".  I think I've seen Airplane too many times.

Maybe he parked in the red zone.

He probably ate the fish.

Maybe he couldn't figure out the Tupperware.

Well, to be honest, I've never been so scared. But at least I have a husband.

And a darling figure

supple, pouting breasts

firm thighs

Look Betty, don't start up with your white zone ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- again. There's just no stopping in a white zone.

There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?

How about this leaflet, "Famous Jewish Sports Legends?"
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: Hoopz on November 02, 2007, 01:26:50 pm
It's an entirely different kind of flying altogether



We lose atomsmasher?  Maybe he hasn't seen it enough.  We could move on to Hot Shots!

Post by: AtomSmasher on November 02, 2007, 01:28:08 pm
Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. It's a dumb question... skip it.
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: ChadTower on November 02, 2007, 01:28:30 pm

I've never seen Hot Shots.
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: Hoopz on November 02, 2007, 01:30:52 pm
Lloyd Bridges is a beeping riot in Hot Shots.  As good as Leslie Nielson in Airplane/Naked Guns etc.

Its worth watching just for his scenes and lines:

Ahhh I love soup. At least I think I love soup. Blasted shell! It's either soup or duck. Which one do you shoot?
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: AtomSmasher on November 02, 2007, 01:32:46 pm
EAGLE RIVER?!?

The original Hot Shots was really good (not as good as Airplane, but still good), the sequal...not so much.
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: ChadTower on November 02, 2007, 01:33:13 pm

I'll add it to the blockbuster queue.  My queue only has like 250 things in it.   :)
Title: Re: Who's Frank?
Post by: shardian on November 02, 2007, 01:33:22 pm
Pardon me for skipping ahead to part two, but my favorite scene was in it. I don't know why it is so damn hilarious, but it is.



And then...it happened.

Airplane 2 was just ok.  Shatner making the Star Trek door noises when the doors opened was about the funniest part.

We could spend a lifetime doing this if we start with Mel Brooks movies.  And the Jerk is a great movie.

I'm picking out a thermos for you.  Not an ordinary thermos for you.

Anyways, I need to get some work done.  I'll leave you with a quote I doubt anyone will recognize.

I'm sure on some planet your style is impressive, but your weak link is, this is Earth.
