Do you love to fly? I don’t. When I was a young person just getting started traveling, I did love to fly. I loved the takeoffs, the landings, the bumps, and turbulence. It all made for an exciting trip. However, as I got older (and wiser), I realized that we’re actually quite vulnerable when we’re so high up in the air. Sometime in the last 15 years or so, I stopped loving to fly. Oh, I still fly when I need to. However, I can’t say I look forward to it. It’s just a necessity to get to places I need to go, and once I get there, the nervousness is forgotten and I can start enjoying my destination. One thing that helps with all of that is a delicious Bloody Mary cocktail on the plane! Anyhow, if I ever heard what the guy in the joke below heard, I’m sure I’d be pretty freaked out, too. Enjoy this hilarious joke!
Shortly after a British Airways flight had reached its cruising altitude, the captain announced: “Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your captain. Welcome to Flight 293, non-stop from London Heathrow to New York. The weather ahead is good, so we should have a smooth uneventful flight. So, sit back, relax, and… OH… MY GOD!”
Silence followed… complete silence!
Some moments later, the captain came back on the intercom.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m sorry if I scared you. While I was talking to you, a flight attendant accidentally spilled coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my trousers!”
From the back of the plane, an Irish passenger yelled…
“For the luvva Jaysus… you should see the back of mine!”
