Thanks for the great movies Mr. Scheider!
Catch you later!
He played a helicopter pilot in some movie about a secret killer helicopter the government wanted to use as part of SWAT or something. He was a ex-Vietname chopper pilot and he still had issues. He thought he was losing his mind and had read somewhere that your sense of time was one of the first things to go..he often timed himself to make sure he was still sane.
One of his detractors in the movie, says at some point, "That guy is nuts. He measures his sanity with a stopwatch!"
The gruff boss-guy looks right at him and says, "What do you measure yours with, a dipstick?"
ha, ha, ha...one of the best movie lines ever!
I read this thread just to put that quote in my post. LOL"You're going to need a bigger boat."
RIP
Man! I was like ten when I saw that movie for the first time.........BIG MISTAKE!!
I was scared to even go in the community pool for the longest time, and you could forget the beach. :laugh:
