Happy Top Gun Day

I feel the need for speed!


This is on my short list of all time favorite movies. There are few things that really take me back to a moment with such clarity. I can recall like it's yesterday, watching this at home on the small screen. I remember the vibration from the speakers blasting and the panic as Maverick and Goose get caught in the jet wash. This was so epic at the time that it looked and sounded good being played on VHS.

It is lame though, that Top Gun Day is on the 13th instead of the 16th, the actual anniversary of the movie release. Apparently that is Iron Eagle day. I have to admit, I only know this because I visited the website: topgunday

It is true that things haven't been the same since Goose died.




And because any true send up must include...  "Lana! - You're in the Danger Zone!"
