Emergency Landing

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

Two guys were sitting in a bar getting really drunk. After awhile, just drinking gets boring, so the first guy looks at the second guy and says, “Hey, you want to go up for a ride in my airplane?”The second guy says, “Wow, you have an airplane? Let’s go!”

So they get some more beer and go for a tour around the city in the plane. Eventually they get bored with this too, so they decide to land. The drunk pilot starts circling around looking for a place to land, and he sees an airstrip close by. He says his new buddy along for the ride, “Let’s land here. It looks like it’s as good a place as any.”

So he circles around and goes in for a landing, but at the last minute he swerves and pulls back up. “Damn!” he says, “That is the SHORTEST runway I have ever seen! How in hell is anyone supposed to land on it?” But since it’s the only runway nearby, he decides to try again, with the same result.

Getting pretty irritated, the pilot says to his friend, “All right, I’m going to try ONE more time, and if I can’t land it we’re just going to crash and hope we don’t die.” So they end up crashing, and miraculously neither is hurt.

When they crawl out of the wreckage, the first guy is still swearing and gesticulating wildly at the runway. “I’m gonna find whoever designed this crazy runway and wring his neck! He must be total moron! No one could land on anything that short!”

The second guy looks around and says “Yeah, but look how wide it is!”

Embarrassed

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

An Englishman, Irishman and Scotsman went for a round of golf and their wives went along as caddies.While walking around the course the English man’s wife caught her foot
in a rabbit hole, tripped up, and landed in a heap on the ground. Her skirt was over her head revealing that she wasn’t wearing any knickers! The Englishman stormed over and angrily demanded a reason for her state of undress.

“Well darling,” she explained, “you give me so little allowance that I have to make the odd sacrifice. Usually no one notices.”

The Englishman thrusts his hand into his pocket and said, “Here’s a ten spot. Go to Mark’s and Spencer’s and get some knickers.”

Two holes further along the Irish Man’s wife caught her foot on a molehill, tripped up and landed in a heap on the ground. Again her skirt was up over her head revealing that she wasn’t wearing any
knickers either! The Irish man was livid and he angrily demanded a reason for her lack of undergarments.

“Well darling,” she explained, “you give me so little allowance I cannot afford to buy undergarments.”

With that the Irish man thrust his hand into his pocket and said, “Here’s a five spot. Go to Woolworth’s and get some knickers.”

Three holes further on, the Scottish man’s wife caught her foot on an exposed root, tripped up and landed with her skirt over her head revealing that even she wore no knickers! Her explanation to her irate husband was the same as the others. Simply a lack of allowance.

The Scottish man thrust his hand into his pocket and said, “Here’s a comb. At least you can tidy yourself up a bit.”
