I did as he had instructed but the woman sitting next to me did not. A few moments later, our flight attendant came back and said to her: "Ma'am, perhaps you couldn't hear me over the big scary engine, but I asked you to please put up your tray so that the captain can land the plane." She still wouldn't comply. Now he was getting angry and asked her again to put up the tray. She then calmly turned to him and said: "In my country, I am called a princess. I take orders from no one." Our flight attendant replied: "Oh yeah? Well in MY country, I'm called a queen and I outrank you, bitch, so put the tray up!" -- If u cannot find the pot of gold....... ~Just enjoy the Raneboux~ RAINY ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 07:00:00 -0400 From: Terry Galan Subject: Test Your Priorities There are five things going on simultaneously which need to be taken care of: 1.

One day Mrs. Jones went to have a talk with the minister at the local church. "Reverend," she said, "I have a problem. My husband keeps falling asleep during your sermons. It's very embarrassing. What should I do?" "I have an idea," said the minister. "Take this hatpin with you. I will be able to tell when Mr. Jones is sleeping, and I will motion to you at specific times. When I motion, you give him a good poke in the leg." In the church the following Sunday, Mr. Jones dozed off. Noticing this, the preacher put his plan to work. "And who made the ultimate sacrifice for you?" he said, nodding to Mrs. Jones. "Jesus!" Jones cried as his wife jabbed him in the leg with the hatpin. "Yes, you are right, Mr. Jones," said the minister. Soon, Mr. Jones nodded off again. Again, the minister noticed. "Who is your redeemer?" he asked the congregation, motioning towards Mrs. Jones. "God!", Mr. Jones cried out as he was stuck again with the hatpin. "Right again," said the minister, smiling. Before long, Mr. Jones again winked off. However, this time the minister did not notice. As he picked up the tempo of his sermon, he made a few motions that Mrs. Jones mistook as signals to bayonet her husband with the hatpin again. The minister asked, "And what did Eve say to Adam after she bore him his 99th son?" Mrs. Jones poked her husband, who yelled, "You stick that damned thing in me one more time and I'll break it in half and shove it up your ass!" "Amen," replied the congregation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb denying enforcement of the vote. "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, 1759 ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 09:19:55 PDT From: Nauman Shahid Subject: Indian life (offensive to Asian Indians) Hear about the new Indian dildo? It the Vibrating Vishnu. After, ahem, physical stimulation, you can set on the bookshelf and pray afterwards. Krishna's father stormed out of the house is a huff. "What's wrong, pop?" Asked Krishna. "Your mother has been charging me for sex -- 10 rupees." Krishna trying to help, "Dad don't take that, she only charges me 3 cow patties and I get Dosai afterwards." India has a new campaign to eradicate illiteracy, incest and general backwardness. It is to be a top-down process. Starting first with the PM and Parliament and wind it's way down to the general population. Did you hear about the new Indian Condo Complex. Finally ultra modern living for the discriminating Indian abroad. It is a loft in downtown Jersey City, currently only fifteen programmers are sharing the space, there is still room for another twenty. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

And as such, old habits were difficult to overcome. In fact, one of the first guys here spent most of his time as a prisoner because he could not stop stealing sheep. Finally one of the other former prisoners designed a number of different devices that could be used to "influence" him to discontinue this wicked habit. This man invented pillories, and all kinds of prisoner holding devices. Finally he made them available in his initial public offering, ... the stock market. (By David Youngs) Chicken soldiers Generally, I find that people do not have a great deal of respect for the beneficial effects of poultry in our society. This is a shame, because we could go on and on about our feathered friends and what they have done for us. For example, during the American revolution, the colonists used hens to sniff out red-coat sympathizers. Thus, was born ... chicken catch a Tory. The Sailor A historical footnote turned up the origin of the name of a bay that became famous during the War of 1812. When a British ship sailed into the bay, the captain, fearing attack from the shore, ordered his crew to squat below the gunwales. All but one curious sailor obeyed. "Get down!" the captain barked at him. "Oh please, Captain!"' the man begged, . . . "Chesapeake! Chesapeake!" Go West, Young Man The golden spike had been driven, thereby , indicating the completion of the first transcontinental railway. Now, it would be possible to enter a train on the East Coast and travel directly to the West Coast. Several different companies joined in enthusiastic competition for passengers to ride from the New York to San Francisco. However, they had not counted on one complication, the company that made the passenger cars had manufactured the seats with those skinny-bunned Continentals in mind. Most of the American passengers found the seats too small. Their seats would not fit in the seats, so to speak. The railroad companies were forced to counter the financial and public relations disaster with the soon-to-be-famous disclaimer posted in all New York railroad stations ... "No West for the Reary!" Family Tree The Smith's were proud of their family tradition. Their ancestors had come to America on the Mayflower. Their line had included Senators and Wall Street wizards. Now they decided to compile a family history, a legacy for the children. They hired a fine author. Only one problem arose----how to handle that great-uncle who was executed in the electric chair. The author said he could handle that chapter of history tactfully. The book appeared. It said that "Great-uncle George occupied a chair of applied electronics at an important government institution, was attached to his position by the strongest of ties and ... his death came as a real shock." ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 09:44:29 -0400 From: chaps@TC4HQ.CMCLTD.COM Subject: Paki, err Think-Tanks - Part 2/2 Did you hear about the other latest Pakistani invention? The new automatic parachutes. They open on impact. How do you sink a Pakistani battleship? Put it in water. Did you hear about the 747 jet which crashed into a cemetery in Karachi?

Five Pakistani sailors died digging his grave. Did you hear about the Pakistani family that froze to death outside a theatre? They were waiting to see the movie "Closed for the winter". Did you hear about the Pakistani helicopter crash? The pilot felt cold, so he turned off the fan. Why do Pakistani dogs have flat noses? They get it from chasing parked cars. Did you hear about the Pakistani who studied diligently for five days? He was scheduled to take a urine test. And the best for last... Did you hear about the shutdown of the Karachi National Library?
