Russ Cargill: There's a couple of things they don't teach you in Harvard Business School, one is how to cope with defeat, the other is how to handle a shotgun, I'm going to do both right now.

Plus there is the "drilling to fix the drilling" idea as scene here in a classic drama

I am one of the biggest Get Smart fans ever. I actually saw "The Naked Bomb" in a theater when I was maybe 13

Would you believe 14 boy scouts with pee shooter?

10. I just saw that on tape (after LOST of course)
that was funny. I heard about this dome thing (hey it probably will work.... uh) and the Simpsons Movie has been the elephant in the room. No one will mention it.
