Weekend Humor

One night, a Delta twin-engine puddle jumper was flying somewhere above New Jersey. There were five people on board: The pilot, Tiger Woods, Rush Limbaugh, the Dalai Lama, and a black rapper. Suddenly, an illegal oxygen generator exploded loudly in the luggage compartment and the passenger cabin began to fill with smoke. The cockpit door opened and the pilot burst into the compartment.

"Gentlemen..." he began, "I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that we're about to crash in New Jersey. The good news is that there are four parachutes and I have one of them!" With that, the pilot threw open the door and jumped from the plane.

Tiger Woods was on his feet in a flash. "Gentlemen..." he said, "I am the world's greatest golfer, the world needs great golfers. I think the world's greatest golfer should have a parachute!" With these words, he grabbed one of the remaining parachutes and hurtled through the door and into the night.

Rush Limbaugh rose and said, "Gentlemen... I am the world's smartest man. The world needs smart men. I think the world's smartest man should have a parachute too." He grabbed one and out he jumped.

The Dalai Lama and the black rapper looked at one another. Finally, the Dalai Lama spoke. "My son..." he said, "I have lived a satisfying life and have known the bliss of true enlightenment. You have your whole life ahead of you; you take the last parachute and I will go down with the plane."

The black rapper smiled slowly and said... "Hey, no problem Pops. The world's smartest man just jumped out of this plane wearing my backpack!"
