Cheney watches "The Departed" on AF2 to get him in the mood as he landed in Guam

<snip>

The flight to Guam had lasted longer than three hours. Jack Nicholson, Leonard DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Mark Whalberg starred in the midair show, The Departed, and the vice president arrived in apparent good cheer. And this was before a young woman wearing a bikini top and a hip-hugging skirt appeared on a riser toward the rear of the audience in the hangar. To our untrained eyes, she appeared to be a hula girl. But we were informed that she is a "chamorrita'' – which is an affectionate term for young women who dress like this in Guam, where natives are called "chamorras.''

The VP had made a couple of very brief appearances in the forward part of the passenger cabin of Air Force Two, once midway through the flight and once toward the end of the flight to Guam.

He had appeared to be in good spirits the first time, standing there in shirtsleeves with work-papers in hand talking to senior staff and smiling and laughing as he spoke. Then he returned to his cabin. He came back later with paperwork, which might have been the speech, judging from a 15-yard view of the papers in his hands. He also dressed more casually this day, wearing khakis, a blue shirt and a dark blazer, following a tour of Tokyo in suits.

Air Force Two landed at 1:10 pm Guam time.

when it comes to movies-Leonardo DiCaprio was absolutely fantastic-Jack (as always) also played a great whacko
