In one episode George was flying behind a woman driver.

The woman sticks her hand out the window to signal a left turn. Then points her index finger straight up. Then points at her head.

The frustrated George yells "What kind of signal was that lady?!?!"

The lady sweetly explains that she was going to turn left, but then remembered she had a hair appointment.

I laughed at the time but today I know that that is sexist and should not be encouraged.

Hopefully we aren’t spending one dime or two seconds on this idiotic idea.

Just like space exploration, we need to use UNMANNED vehicles and only send in humans AFTER the enemy is dead.

How is the weight of an up-armored humvee type vehicle going to balance with being light enough to fly? This thing would need a huge honking power plant I would think.

This sucker's nuclear!

The jeep didn’t fly by itself. It was a AutogyroGlider, has to be towed by an aircraft.

Yes.

I admit it.

You have no idea what a relief it is to finally ‘come clean’ after all these years...

Unless it can transform into a giant battle robot, I’m not impressed.
