Flying can be an excruciating experience these days. The CEO of United Airlines recently admitted that by the time passengers sit down on his planes, they're already "pissed at the world." But plenty of airlines have tried to make things more fun over the years, even if they were incredibly weird. So weird, in fact, that they went out of business.

Couldn't they hijack their own private jet and fly it into a building?

Do the bag heads believe that the 10 commandments apply to them?

That would be very dumb. Very dumb. Dumb people aren't rich. And, rich people aren't dumb. Very hard for a dumb person to get rich & stay rich. Look at Osama bin Laden. Very smart cookie, comes from the bin Laden Family, one of the richest families in Saudi Arabia. They're like the Waltons of Saudi Arabia. They own the Saudi Binladin Group, HUGE Construction Company. Bigger than Halliburton. And so many people say, "oh, Osama bin Laden was behind the 7-11 attacks." But, where are the charges? No charges filed against the guy. No indictment, we call it Unindicted. But, the planes. He wasn't on those planes. And, those weren't his planes. They were somebody else's. Bad day for American, bad day for United. Bad day for so many New Yorkers. So many dieing (RIP!!). I'll tell you, 40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually before the World Trade Center the tallest, and then when they built the World Trade Center it became known as the second-tallest, and after the attacks it became the tallest again. And I spoke to my people, and they said it was the most unbelievable sight, they were probably 7 or 8 blocks away from the World Trade Center, and yet Wall Street was littered with two feet of stone & brick & mortar & steel. While Osama bin Laden was somewhere very safe. We've spent TRILLIONS looking for him in Afghanistan. And by the way, we're still looking. That's called being very rich and very smart. You think rich people are dumb, look at Osama. U.S.A. messed with him -- once. Big regrets about that one. Big regrets. Trust me, you don't want to mess with a rich person. Because you will LOOSE very badly!!!!

This is grade A enactment. I wish I there would be more personalities. This guy reminds me of the president heads in Futurama.
