Y'know what's funny? This line has been playing in my head all month:
---------------------------------
Stinger: Maverick, you just did an incredibly brave thing.
Stinger: What you should have done was land your plane! You don't own that plane, the taxpayers do! Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash. You've been busted, you've lost your qualifications as section leader three times, put in hack twice by me, with a history of high speed passes over five air control towers - and one admiral's daughter!
Goose: Penny Benjamin?
(Maverick shrugs)
Stinger: (to Goose) And you, asshole, you're lucky to be here!
Goose: Thank you, sir.
Stinger: And let's not bullshit, Maverick. Your family name ain't the best in the Navy. You need to be doing it better and cleaner than the other guy. Now what is it with you?
Maverick: Just want to serve my country and be the best pilot in the Navy, sir.
Stinger: Don't screw around with me Maverick. You're a hell of an instinctive pilot. Maybe too good. I'd like to bust your butt but I can't. I got another problem here. I gotta send somebody from this squadron to Miramar. I gotta do something here, I still can't believe it. I gotta give you your dream shot!
Stinger: I'm gonna send you up against the best. You two characters are going to .
Stinger: For five weeks, you will be flying against the best fighter pilots in the world. You were number two, Cougar was number one. Cougar lost it-turned in his wings. You guys are number one. But you remember one thing:
Stinger: ...If you screw up just much, you'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of
Maverick: Yes sir!
---------------------------------
I didn't know her name was Penny Benjamin. That's bothered me for most of my lifetime up to this point.
ANYWAYS, it looks like more work is coming up on the plate. Who would've thunk it? From rags to riches (and possibly back to rags again...who knows? Maybe I'm a fad. I have no clue), I'm feelin' pretty alright. Like these guys:
Good song!
BTW. I just received my copies of Love As A Foreign Language #5 (looks beautiful, btw...and I usually don't toot my own horn, so that's sayin' somethin'!), so that means that it's most likely out in stores within a very short period of time. And you'll DEFINITELY be able to pick them up if you go to San Diego...cheers!
