  "text": "I'm on the plane, we left late, and the pilot says, \"We're going to be making up some time in the air.\" I thought, \"Isn't that interesting. They just make up time.\" That's why you have to reset your watch when you land. Of course, when they say they're making up time, obviously they're increasing the speed of the aircraft. Now my question is, if you can go faster, why don't you just go as fast as you can all the time? \"Come on, there're no cops up here! Nail it! Give it some gas!\"",
