“Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don’t find out until too late that he’s been playing with two queens all along”.  Terry Pratchett.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Tallulah Bankhead: "I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me."

"I have enjoyed very warm relations with my two husbands."
"With your eyes closed?"
"That helped."  Lauren Bacall

Master Chiefs are sneaky, dastardly, and snarky miscreants who thrive on the tears of Ensigns and belly dancers.   Admiral Gerry Bogan.

U.S. Navy aircraft of several squadrons inside the airship hangar at Naval Air Station Moffett Field, California, on 30 July 1935 (looking south).

Identifiable planes are: Boeing F4Bs of VF-6 (front), a single Grumman SF-1, Curtiss BFC-2s (VB-2), and others in the background.
