dark, and we're wearing sunglasses
It's got
a cop motor: a 440 cubic inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop
shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular
gas. What do you say, is this the new Bluesmobile, or what?

not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God!

Now, let
me tell you something, Streebeck. There are two things which clearly differentiate

O.K. boss,
this LTX-27 concealable mike is part of the same system that NASA used when they
faked the Apollo moon landings. Yeah, the astronauts broadcast around the world
from a soundstage at Norton Airforce Base in San Bernadino, California. So it
worked for them, shouldn't give us too many problems.
But the
key meeting took place July 3rd, 1968, when the Air Force brought the space visitor
to the White House for an interview with President Eisenhower. And Ike said, "hey
look, give us your technology, we'll give you all the cow lips you want."
