glad you did not shoot it out of the sky

2 minutes is not a long time to ride in it.

Should have told him take me up to about 2500 and we will see who makes it down faster - strap on your rig and dive out - pure win

You were about to pay money to ride in a Robby?

I've seen some huge fat bastards climb in and out of those. You must have been drunk.

I rode a stunt-chopper a few years back at a local airshow, the guy was one hell of a pilot.

There is no fucking way I would go near a chopper after drinking. Count yourself lucky.

Last year while planning a trip to St. Louis I took a look into helicopter tours at the Arch. They do weigh you before takeoff, so we didn't look any more into that.

But you were possibly drunk and wanting to take the controls?

You probably looked like you might puke.

Nothing better than having to clean puke out of the cockpit.

I would be worried about someone throwing up.

Did you steal any wine on the way out?

A few years ago they gave a guy an FUI for giving chopper rides while drunk at a fair around here. Apparently, he gave some folks one hell of a ride, so they complained.

Thank you!! I freaking LOVE this movie! I saw it a couple years ago on cable and forgot the name of it. I wanted to buy it on dvd but couldn't remeber the name of the flic or any of the actors' names.
The midget and hookers scene was brilliant!
