Oil prices were skyrocketing (deja vu), and the Iranians had been holding 52 men and women of our embassy hostage for months. Inflation was running in the mid-teens.

"Airplane!" made us forget all that. "Airplane!" made you spit out your popcorn, spew fountain soda through your nose, and shower the row ahead with your neighbor's Milk Duds. Surely you laughed so hard that you missed half the jokes -- and had to see the movie again.

"There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?"

(During the food poisoning epidemic) "I haven't seen anything like this since the Anita Bryant concert."

"It takes so many things to make love last. But most of all, it takes respect, and I can't live with a man I don't respect."

"Joey, have you ever been to a Turkish prison?"
