THE BOTTLE OF WINE


For all of us who are married, were married, wish you were married, or wish you weren't married, this is something to smile about the next time you see a bottle of wine:

Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road.

As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride..

With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car.

Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman. The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally.

'What in bag?' asked the old woman.

Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, 'It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband.'

The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said:

"Good trade. . ..'

Airline Announcements?


United Flight Attendant announced, 'People, people we're not picking out furniture here, find a seat and get in it!

*************************************


On landing, the stewardess said, 'Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure it's something we'd like to have. '

*************************************


'There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane'

*************************************


An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy Which required the first officer to stand at the door while the passengers exited, smile, and give them a 'Thanks for flying our airline. " He said that, in light of his bad landing, I had a hard time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally everyone had gotten off except for a little old lady walking with a cane.

She said, 'Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question? "

'Why, no, Ma'am,' said the pilot. 'What is it? "

The little old lady said, 'Did we land, or were we shot down? "

***************************************


As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: 'Whoa, big fella, WHOA! "

*******************************************


After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced, 'Please take care when opening the overhead compartments Because I sure as hell everything has shifted after a landing like that. "

*************************************


Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing: 'We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal. "

*************************************


Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo, Texas on a particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the Captain was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant said, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo. Please remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate! "

***********************************


'Your seat cushions can be used for flotation, and, in the event of an emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our compliments. "

***********************************


'As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses ...... except for that gentleman over there. "

******************************************


Heard on Southwest Airlines just after a very hard landing in Salt Lake City. The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, 'That was quite a bump, and I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to tell you it was not the airline's fault, it was not the pilot's fault, it was not the flight attendant's fault, it was the asphalt. "

****************************************


After a real crusher of a landing in Phoenix, the attendant came on with, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Capt... Crash and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are silenced, we'll open the door and you can pick your way through the wreckage to the terminal. "

****************************************


Part of a flight attendant's arrival announcement: 'We'd like to thank you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the insane urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal tube, we hope you'll think of U.S... Airways. "

****************************************


Heard on a Southwest Airline flight - 'Ladies and gentlemen, if you wish to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing and if you can light' em, you can smoke 'em. "

****************************************


A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom, 'Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax ... OH MY GOD! " Silence followed, and after a few minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my pants! "

A passenger in Coach yelled, 'That's nothing. You should see the back of mine! "

Walking past a funeral home....

A man is walking home alone late one foggy Halloween
night, when behind him he hears:

BUMP... BUMP... BUMP...

Walking faster, he looks back and through the fog he
makes out the image of an upright casket banging its way down the middle
of the street toward him.

BUMP... BUMP... BUMP...

Terrified, the man begins to run toward his home, the
casket bouncing quickly behind him.

FASTER... FASTER... BUMP... BUMP... BUMP....

He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the
door, rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him. However, the
casket crashes through his door, with the lid of the casket clapping.

clappity-BUMP... clappity-BUMP.. clappity-BUMP......

on his heels, as the terrified man runs.

Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, he locks himself in.
His heart is pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in
sobbing gasps.
With a loud CRASH the casket breaks down the door.

Bumping and clapping toward him.

The man screams and reaches for something, anything, but
all he can find is a bottle of cough syrup! Desperate, he throws the
cough syrup at the casket...

and,
(hopefully you're ready for this!!!)

The coffin stops.

Catholic Coffee


Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee.


The first Catholic man tells his friends, "My son is a priest, when he
walks into a room, everyone calls him 'Father'."


The second Catholic man chirps, "My son is a Bishop. When he walks
into a room people call him 'Your Grace'."


The third Catholic gent says, "My son is a Cardinal. When he enters a
room everyone says 'Your Eminence'."


The fourth Catholic man then says, "My son is the Pope. When he walks
into a room people call him 'Your Holiness'."


Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the
four men give her a subtle, "Well....?"


She proudly replies, "I have a daughter, slim, tall, 38D breast, 24"
waist, and 34" hips. When she walks into a room, people say, "Oh My
God."
