Blind Pilot
Posted: Sun Oct 09, 2005 12:19 pm
Two men dressed in pilots' uniforms walk up the aisle of the
airplane. 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 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 realise they're headed straight
for the water at the end of the airport territory. As it
begins to look as though the plane will crash 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, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good
hands. 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 ."
Hugs,
