I can't just convey an attitude reminiscent of Frank Sinatra with nothing but letters, kiddo. I need lights, a camera. Tools that'll let me show my face across the net and make people say, "Hot damn, that is one talented cat!"

For me, it's high on the list too. The scene with them in the helicopter, flying away under the sunset with the soft score playing undernearh is one of my favorite scenes in cinematic history.

It just holds a lot of nostalgic value for me. It was my favorite film as a child. I went and saw it when it was re-released in theaters a couple years back.

No, lucked out, only a small spill, but the left half of the keys were basically stuck together and I didn't feel like taking it apart.
