Movie writing
Airplane is one of my favorite movies. There is humor in every line. Examples:
"Surely you can't be serious" "I am serious, and stop calling me Shirley."
"This woman has to be gotten to a hospital!" "A hospital, what is it??"
"Oh, it's a big building with patients, but that doesn't matter now."
My favorite character in the movie was Otto the inflatable auto-pilot.

The two crash test dummies had just finished skydiving without a parachute when a flock of narcissistic circus clowns, which had lost their pride, filed into the office, flopping and tripping and wandering from side to side to find some place where they could be sad. A random mason who happened to be there made a sort of wall round them with bricks, and the clowns nestled down inside it and promptly fell asleep. At the last moment Chuck Norris, the strong, pretty dangerous guy who held Mr. Jones in a headlock, came mincing daintily in, chewing at a lump of sugar.

mini saga
There once was a squirrel named lynder,
Who was stuffed into a grinder
He got hit by a truck,
and then he got stuck,
and they made him into a binder
How does this make sense?
Why he got stuck on the tire,
He was shipped to a plant and thrown in a fire,
The tires melted,
And then they were smelted,
And then they were molded and belted
Well one of those belts was Lynder, you see,
And they forced him through a sewing machine
They stitched and they cut,
They really could have been kinder,
And that’s how lynder was made into a binder.
