“Wonderful darling! What part did you get?"

“I’m playing the part of the Jewish Husband!"

The mother frowns and says

“Go back to your teacher and tell them you want a speaking part.”

A man walks into a bank, gets in line and when it is his turn he pulls out a gun … and robs the bank!!!

To make sure he leaves no witnesses, he turns around and asks the next customer in line: ‘Did you see me rob this bank?'

The customer replies: ‘YES!'

The bank robber raises his gun, POINTS IT & BANG!! SHOOTS HIM in THE HEAD AND KILLS HIM!

He quickly moves to the next customer in line and says, to the man …. ‘DID … YOU …. SEE . ME … ROB THIS BANK?'

The man calmly responds: ‘No, but my wife did!’

Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of San Diego , was visiting her in-laws, and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Several people noticed her sitting in her parked car with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back of her head.

One customer who had been at the store for a while became concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda’s eyes were now open, and she looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay, and Linda replied that she’d been shot in the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in for over an hour.

The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Linda refused to remove her hands from her head. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head.

A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making a loud noise that
sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough hit her in the back of her head.

When she had reached back to find out what it was, she’d felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She initially passed out, but quickly recovered, and had tried to hold her brains in for over an hour until someone noticed and came to her aid.

Linda is a blonde and a Republican, but I’m certain that’s irrelevant.

The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are renowned as a short-tempered lot. They not only expect one to know one’s gate parking location, but how to get there without any assistance from them. So it was with some amusement that we (a Pan Am 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground control and a British Airways 747, call sign Speedbird 206.
Speedbird 206: “Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of active runway."
Ground: “Speedbird 206. Taxi to gate Alpha One-Seven.” The BA 747 pulled onto the main taxiway and slowed to a stop.
Ground: “Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: “Stand by, Ground, I’m looking up our gate location now."
Ground (with quite arrogant impatience): “Speedbird 206, have you not been to Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): “Yes, twice in 1944, but it was dark, and I didn’t land."

While taxiing at London’s Gatwick Airport, the crew of a US Air flight departing for Ft. Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United 727.
An irate female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming: “US Air 2771, where the hell are you going?! I told you to turn right onto Charlie taxiway! You turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I know it’s difficult for you to tell the difference between C and D, but get it right!"

Continuing her rage to the embarrassed crew, she was now shouting hysterically: “God! Now you’ve screwed everything up! It’ll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don’t move till I tell you to! You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour, and I want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell you! You got that, US Air 2771?"

“Yes, ma’am,” the humbled crew responded.

Naturally, the ground control communications frequency fell terribly silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to chance engaging the irate ground controller in her current state of mind.

Tension in every cockpit out around Gatwick was definitely running high.

Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone, asking: “Wasn’t I married to you once?”

For all of you who frequent restaurants and understand
the need for the service to be faster, this short
story is a timeless lesson on how consultants can make
a difference to an organization.

Last week, we took some friends out to a new
restaurant and noticed that the waiter who took our
order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket.

It seemed a little strange. When another waiter
brought our water and utensils, I noticed he also had
a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around and
saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.

When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked,
“Why the spoon?"

Well, he explained, “the restaurant’s owners hired
Andersen Consulting to revamp all our processes. After
several months of analysis, they concluded that the
spoon was the most frequently dropped utensil.

It represents a drop frequency of approximately 3
spoons per table per hour. If our personnel are better
prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to
the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift."

As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was
able to replace it with his spare. “I’ll get another
spoon next time I go to the kitchen, instead of making
an extra trip to get it right now."

I was impressed. I also noticed that there was a
string hanging out of the waiter’s fly. Looking
around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same
string hanging from their flies. So before he walked
off, I asked the waiter “Excuse me, but can you tell
me why you have that string right there?"

“Oh, certainly!” Then he lowered his voice. “Not
everyone is so observant. That consulting firm I
mentioned also found out that we can save time in the
restroom. By tying this string to the tip of you know
what, we can pull it out without touching it and
eliminate the need to wash our hands, shortening the
time spent in the restroom by 76.39 percent.

I asked, “After you get it out, how do you put it
back?"

“Well,” he whispered, “I don’t know about the others,
but I use the spoon."

Trevor the farmer was in the fertilised egg business. He had several
hundred young layers (hens), called ‘pullets’ and eight or ten
roosters, whose job was to fertilise the eggs. The farmer kept records
and any rooster that didn’t perform went into the soup pot and was
replaced.

That took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set of tiny bells
and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone so
Trevor could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now
he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by
listening to the bells.

The farmer’s favourite rooster was old Gordon, and a very fine
specimen he was too. But on this particular morning Trevor noticed old
Gordon’s bell hadn’t rung at all! Trevor went to investigate. The
other roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets,
hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. But to farmer
Trevor’s amazement, Gordon had his bell in his beak, so it couldn’t
ring. He’d sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.

Trevor was so proud of Gordon, he entered him in the Yorkshire Show
and Gordon became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result: The judges not only awarded Gordon the No Bell Piece Prize
but they also awarded him the Pullet surprise as well.

Clearly Gordon was a politician in the making: Who else but a
politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted
awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace
and screwing them when they weren’t paying attention.

Do you know a Pullitician called Gordon?

All too rarely, airline attendants make an effort to make the in-flight
“safety lecture” and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are 
some
real examples that have been heard or reported:


1. On a Southwest flight (SW has no assigned seating, you just sit 
where you
want) passengers were apparently having a hard time choosing, when a 
flight
attendant announced, “People, people we' re not picking out furniture 
here,
find a seat and get in it!”

2. On a Continental Flight with a very “senior” flight attendant crew, 
the
pilot said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve reached cruising altitude and 
will
be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to 
enhance
the appearance of your flight attendants.”

3. On landing, the stewardess said, “Please be sure to take all of your
belongings. If you’re going to leave anything, please make sure it’s
something we’d like to have.

4. “There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 
ways out
of this airplane”

5. “Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed 
giving
us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride.”

6. As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a lone
voice came over the loudspeaker: “Whoa, big fella. WHOA!”

7. After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a
flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced, “Please take care when
opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing like that, 
sure
as anything, everything has shifted.”

8. From a Southwest Airlines employee: “Welcome aboard Southwest Flig 
ht 245
to Tampa. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the 
buckle,
and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt; and, if you 
don’t
know how to operate one, you probably shouldn’t be out in public
unsupervised.”

9. “In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will 
descend from
the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your 
face. If
you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before 
assisting
with theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child, pick 
your
favorite.”

10. “Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds, 
but
we’ll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember,
nobody loves you, or your money, more than Southwest Airlines.”

11. “Your seat cushions can be used for flotation; and, in the event 
of an
emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our
compliments.”

12. “As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings.
Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight 
attendants.
Please do not leave children or spouses.”

13. And from the pilot during his welcome message: “Delta Airlines is
pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry.
Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!”

14. Heard on Southwest Airlines just after a very hard landing in Salt 
Lake
City : The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, “That was 
quite a
bump, and I know what y’all are thinking. I’m here to tell you it 
wasn’t the
airline’s fault, it wasn’t the pilot’s fault, it wasn’t the flight
attendant’s fault, it was the asphalt.”

15. Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo, Texas , on a
particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the 
Captain was
really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight
Attendant said, “Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo. Please 
remain in
your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis 
what’s left
of our airplane to the gate!”

16. Another flight attendant’s comment on a less than perfect landing: 
“We
ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the
terminal.”

17. An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had 
hammered
his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which
required the first officer to stand at the door while the Passengers 
exited,
smile, and give them a “Thanks for flying our airline.” He said that, in
light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in 
the
eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally 
everyone had
gotten off except for a little old lady walking with a cane. She said, 
“Sir,
do you mind if I ask you a question?” “Why, no, Ma’am,” said the pilot.
“What is it?” The little old lady said, “Did we land, or were we shot 
down?”

18. After a real crusher of a landing in Phoenix , the attendant came on
with, “Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Capt. 
Crash
and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt against the
gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are
silenced, we’ll open the door and you can pick your way through the 
wreckage
to the terminal.”

19. Part of a flight attendant’s arrival announcement: “We’d like to 
thank
you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the 
insane
urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal tube, we 
hope
you’ll think of US Airways.”

20. Heard on a Southwest Airline flight. “Ladies and Gentlemen, if you 
wish
to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing and if 
you can
light ‘em, you can smoke ‘em.”

21. A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport . After it reached a
comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the
intercom, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. 
Welcome to
Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles . The weather 
ahead
is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. 
Now
sit back and relax… OH, MY GOD!” Silence followed, and after a few
minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, “Ladies and
Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. While I was talking to
you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my
lap. You should see the front of my pants!” A passenger in Coach yelled,
“That’s nothing. You should see the back of mine!”

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid term. The answer by one student was so “profound” that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, “It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,” and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over! The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct……leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting “Oh my God.”

THE STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+
