Sam-isms

The other day, Julie, Sam, and I were sitting around watching tv. A show came on about this dare-devil guy, that was constantly looking for something crazy and stupid to do. It showed him base jumping off a cliff. The jump went wrong, and he ended up breaking his back. So, the guy got better, and was now into a suit that he would wear, that enabled him to fly really fast along the ground, head first, after jumping off a huge cliff. When he would spread his arms and legs, he would look like one of those flying squirrels. It was actually pretty cool, but totally insane, because the guy has little control over where he is soaring. Any ways....Sam was watching, and he said, "Can I get one of those suits???!!!" To which, Julie and I answered, NO! He instantly replied, very dissapointedly, "BUT I'VE WANTED TO FLY MY WHOLE LIFE!!!!" I lost it. It was hilarious!!! Watch the video below to see what the flying squirrel suit looks like in action.

Holy Crap! That guy is completely crazy, completely crazy! I was gasping as I watched.

As for Sam, Harold has wanted to fly his whole life, too. But he will NEVER EVER own one of those suits...

Who doesn't want to fly!?!? But, honestly, we weren't born that way...so I'll never get one of the suits either.
