Actually, reading Dave's script wasn't as bad as sitting through the movie "Titanic". That was the last movie I ever went to, and I thought that darn boat would never sink so I could get out of there!

Ten minutes into Titanic, I was thinking "Just Sink Already."

Leonardo DiCaprio, who has shown the world that he is not just a pretty face; he is a pretty face who, if he had been in my high school, would have spent a lot of time being held upside-down over the toilet by larger boys

LOL - no one can do it like Dave can!

Oh, come on, now. It has prodided endless hours of entertainment, while out on our boat, second only to, well, beer.

And fishing - we caught a fish once, but nobody wanted to touch a fish out of the Potomac, so we tossed it and all the fishing geer over the side, and went back to drinking beer.

And making fun of this silly movie.

My then-wife rented it. I had to leave the room. I couldn't take it.

The best thing about the Titanic's Oscar night was Jack Nicholson getting the best actor award "I had this sinking feeling all evening..." (which I heard the next day on the radio).

But think of all the incidental revenue the movie created, from all the Jack Ballard/Discovery Channel underwater gloomy rust globules. And bright, featureless videos of old dinner plates and shoes on the bottom of the Atlantic!

AND the economic boom in ROV sales......

Thanks for making me laugh. Dave Barry rocks!

However, I have never seen Titanic and don't plan to
ever see it. I liked "The Unsinkable Molly Brown"
with Debbie Reynolds. Don't need no stinkin' revisionist
film maker tellin' me how the ship went down.

Now where do I go to buy an ACTUAL HISTORY
OFFSET CREDIT for Dave Barry?

Perhaps what you need to buy, is a sense of humor for some of the folks around here?

On a crash landing drill, I actually looked at my flight instructor, and said, "If I give you a hundred dollar tip, will you buy a sense of humor?"

Of course, we still crashed.

But it was darn funny.
