A
cargo plane is in mid-flight over the ocean when suddenly
the cockpit door bursts open to reveal an armed, masked
hijacker to a startled pilot, copilot, navigator, and a
passenger. The passenger happens to be George W Bush. (Why?
Maybe, he was on his way to check on the coca plant life
in South America!") The masked gunman held a gun to
the pilot's head and said, "Take this plane to Iraq
or I'm gonna spill your brains all over the place."
The pilot calmly reached up, pushed the gun aside and said,
"Look buddy, if you shoot me this plane will crash
right into the sea and you'll die along with the rest of
us."
The hijacker thought about it, then held the gun to the
copilot's head and said, "Take this plane to Iraq or
I'm gonna spill HIS brains all over the place."
The copilot also calmly reached up, pushed the gun aside
and said, "Listen to me. The pilot's got a bad heart
and he could keel over at the shock of my being killed.
So if you shoot me, this plane will still crash right into
the sea and you'll die along with the rest of us."
The hijacker thought about it for a moment and then held
the gun to the navigator's head and repeated, "Take
this plane to Iraq or I'm gonna spill HIS brains all over
the place."
The navigator calmly reached up, pushed the gun aside and
said, "I wouldn't do that if I were you. Those other
two guys have no sense of direction. Without me they couldn't
find their way out of a paper bag much less get this plane
to Iraq. So if you shoot me, this plane will still crash
right into the sea and you'll die along with the rest of
us."
The hijacker thought some more, shrugged and this time
held the gun to the passenger's head and demanded, "Take
this plane to Iraq or I'm gonna spill HIS brains all over
the place."
No one said a word, at first, then the pilot, co-pilot,
and navigator all brust into laughter. "He's George
W Bush!" they laughed. "He doesn't have any brains!"
