They change quickly. Today's retorts may be no good tomorrow.

It was a paper airplane. A last century paper airplane. If you (or Disney) want to think it was a 747, that's your prerogative.....

Yeah, I haven't figured that out yet either when I post from my phone. I hope that doesn't make me any less tech savvy.
