[QUOTE=Sapo] Actually, some googling brought me to another answer. The movie was Blue Thunder and the cap was JAFO which means Just Another Fucking Observer. [/QUOTE] And I saw that movie. Oddly, I didn’t remember that cap. It has been a while since I saw the movie, though. A decade or better. All I remember is Roy Scheider and some fancy roll in a helicopter that was supposed to be impossible. And a chase through LA’s tall buildings. ---

> [@](#): > > Sounds like somebody’s got a new .45 ! Believe me when I say that I got somethin’ for his punkass! OP, it really wouldn’t surprise me if one of the 8 year olds wrote that. It’s like an 8 year old here writing “PENIS” on the side of someone’s window and then running away laughing. Not that I would… um… know about that. Now if someone takes a baseball bat to your windshield… then maybe you’ve got a problem there.
