Quote from Norm in Jumping Jerks
Bob: Now listen to me. Okay, now remember, this time when you jump... out of the plane, hold on to the bottom of the banner and let it spread out so that Otto can get a good shot of it. Norm: Okay, question. How are we supposed to pull our ripcord and hold on to the banner at the same time? Bob: You won't be pulling the rip cord for 20 seconds. Just count like this. One Mississippi, two Mississippi... Sam: Excuse me. Could we make it a shorter state, like Maine? You know, one Maine, two Maine, three Maine?
