1:00:04
Ladies and gentlemen, from your
teammates at the table over there.

1:00:09
Gerber's baby food.
1:00:11
And some training material
for you to look over.

1:00:15
Pictures for the bigger words.
1:00:20
A talking frog's worth something.
1:00:25
- 40 percent.
- 40 percent?!

1:00:28
You might nail it.
You might crash and burn.

1:00:31
- The odds are against you, colonel.
- Watch this.

1:00:37
40 percent.
1:00:39
40 percent for you, you nail it.
1:00:41
40 percent for me,
I'd have missed by a mile.

1:00:44
That's why I got out of
the astronaut program.

1:00:47
I knew my chances of getting on
a space shuttle were way less than 40.

1:00:52
But I was an astronaut, almost.
1:00:54
- You'd have been a damn good one too.
- Thank you.

1:00:59
You don't think like that. You've
jumped out of planes 20 miles up.

1:01:04
You drove rocket sleds
at the speed of sound.

1:01:08
- You're not afraid of anything.
- I've been afraid.

1:01:11
Oh, bullshit. When?
1:01:17
When I was 17 years old.
1:01:21
I was crazy in love
with this college girl.

1:01:25
She was beautiful. Oh, gorgeous.
1:01:28
And a ball of fire.
1:01:30
She, of course,
was crazy in love with--

1:01:33
- You.
- No.

1:01:34
Texas A&M's all-American defensive end
Scott LeBeau.

1:01:37
And I mean, this cat
was six-foot-six if he was a foot.

1:01:42
Gary Cooper handsome.
1:01:44
One day, a bunch of friends and I
decided we'd drink too much beer...

1:01:49
...and crash a big old
sorority cotillion.

1:01:52
You know, everybody's dressed up
in chiffon gowns and Daddy's tuxedo.

1:01:56
There we are, looking like a bunch
of brush poppers and goat ropers.
