Sarcasm is wonderful stuff

There’s a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running “a bit peaked.”

Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two, behind an eight engined B-52 that had one engine shut down.

“Ah,” the fighter pilot remarked, “the dreaded seven-engine approach.”

I enjoyed it.

The gist is that the guy with his single-engine plane was having problems and wanted to make a quick landing. But he was put behind plane that was faced with the "burden" of landing with only 7 out of 8 engines.

Remember when you vote in November that President Kerry will be cutting defense dollars where he can because he believes in a lighter, more maneuverable force. The Navy is already getting prepared by naming a class of aircraft carriers after him. This is the prototype...

I don't think political jokes etc are allowed in the Political-forum.

Do I - or you - really care if a joke is political or not? Nope!

If its funny, its funny.

Thats my bottom line.
