Something to ponder . . .

5759 Year according to Jewish calendar
- 4696 Year according to Chinese calendar
-------
= 1063 Total number of years that Jews went without Chinese food

Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit, the door closes, and the engines start up .

The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign that this is just a little practical joke . but none is forthcoming .

The plane moves faster and faster down the runway and the people sitting in the window seats realize they're headed straight for the water at the end of the runway .

As it begins to look as though the plane will plough into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin .

At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air . The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands .





In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, "You know, John, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna die . "

Is that the best you can do?

(Certainly not good enough for your current dispensation for a free blonde joke - but maybe you weren't cashing that in just yet?).

It's not only too old a joke, but mostly when I hear that one, it's a male driving - not a blonde.
It was even used on a TV commercial.

Try again next week...

333664 2005-03-16 23:03:00 OK Laura - I'll get back under my stone... I had not heard it before, which comes from living in the wrong dimension sometimes...

Thanks Laura. Maybe we all have some communication problems (g), but among long-marrieds it developes into a special form. Example :-

He calls out " Where did you put the whatnot ?"

She (not a blonde) calls back "It's on top of the thing .."

And they both know exactly what they are referring to ....

Cheers Tony

333668 2005-03-18 10:49:00 Now that reminds me, Tony, of my Selwynism.

It's called that in this household because (the retired) Selwyn Toogood's version was the first I heard - though there've been others since.

Earnest questioner:"Do you believe in the hereafter?"

Selwyn: "Indeed, yes. Nowadays I think of it practically every day. It's happening more & more."

Questioner (sensing a convert) "Oh, that's wonderful."

Selwyn: "It keeps happening when I walk into another room. Then I stop & have to ask myself: ' Now what am I here after?'"

So "I'm just doing a Selwyn" needs no interpretation here...
