The Blind Pilots
Joke
Two men dressed in pilots' uniforms walk up the aisle
of the aircraft. Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and
the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.
Nervous
laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit the door
closes, and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing nervously
around, searching for some kind of a sign that this is just a little practical
joke. None is forthcoming.
The plane moves faster and faster down the
runway, and the people sitting in the window seats realize they're headed
straight for the water at the edge of the airport property. Just as it begins to
look as though the plane will plow straight into the water, panicked screams
fill the cabin.
At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air.
The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into
their magazines and books, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good
hands.
Meanwhile, in the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the
other and
says, 'You know, Bob, one of these days, they're gonna scream too
late and we're all gonna die' !!
