When you're Johnny from "Airplane!"

Yeah, what a loss. Stucker was only 38 when he died. IMO, he would have been one of the great character actors of all time.

To this day, if someone makes the mistake of saying "How bout some.." when they want something, there's three of us at work that just say "No Thanks!"

Ha! When one of my chubbier buddys is in a bitchy crabby mood, I always say "The problem is getting smaller, but (in Johnny's voice) Ryan is getting l-l-l-larger!" while jiggling his gut.

But does he look like a big Tylenol?

I love that movie...as I get older, I find m'self saying "..looks like I picked the wrong week to quit using amphetamines.." a lot.

When he dresses in red and white? Yes!

No one has mentioned his best best line:

Why I could make a hat, or a brooch, a pterodactyl...

my boss quoted me the "I picked the wrong week to quit....." line to me this week.

I still think the best line is from Airplane! II.

"Tell it to me, from the beginning..."

"Well, first the Earth cooled, then the dinosaurs came, but got to big and fat, and became oil, and then the Arabs came and bought Mercedes Benzs..."

I may have fudged a few words, but I've used that one to torque more than a few people.

Another great line.

He was my favorite character. While being deposed for an accident I had at work thw attorney started asking about my bus. The transcriptionist started giggling when I described it as "White with a pretty blue strip, like a giant asprin"
