A Perfect Landing
Kent: Okay, JT, so I know you were a fighter pilot, but you never told me…
JT: [cutting off Kent] About landing on an aircraft carrier?
Kent: Ya… what’s that like?
JT: Actually, Kent, it got to beeeee boring… standard… procedural.
Kent: What?? Really???
JT: [a bit excitedly] Landing at a commercial airport? Now that was fun.
Kent: [a little quick] That sounds boring, standard and procedural.
JT: Not in an F-18. [showing off] You buzz the tower, hit the speed brakes, whip it sideways and slam it on the gound. And the look on the faces of the ground crew… YEAH, oh ya.
Kent: Sounds a little bit like showing off, JT.
JT: Kent, it’s NOT showing off. It’s knowing exactly what to do and doing it perfectly… every time. If I was to land, like a commercial plane, in enemy territory, I’d be blown outta the sky.
Kent: [leading/knowing] So, knowing what makes or breaks a situation is the key?
JT: Yep, just like knowing that the asphalt is the least important part of installing a roof.
Kent: Oh, c’mon, JT. [kinda whiny] Tha -That’s what I was gonna say.
JT: [sharp] You know I got no quit!!!!!
Jingle: ***Maven Roof dot com.*** Kent: You stole my line again, JT.
JT: [cocky] No, Kent, I landed it perfectly… Again.
