Ted,
Loved your polish joke. "Ted" tedwilliams@nospam wrote in message ... On Fri, 10 Jun 2005 21:01:43 -0400, "*JimH*" wrote: Though we often disagree, I thought it was funny. Then again, I am not PC. Actually my last name throws people. I am Polish. (Long story but started generations back on immigration). I tell more Polish jokes than anyone. You have to be able to laugh at yourself. Like the Polish airplane pilot coming in for a landing, he looks at the runway and said to his co-pilot "Damn that is a short runway, 50% flaps". They got closer and he said "That is a really short, 75% flaps". As they got close to touchdown he yelled to his co-pilot "That is really a short runway, 100% flaps and full reverse thrust". As they safely landed, they looked around, the pilot said to his co-pilot "That was a really short runway". His co-pilot answered back, "Yeah, but it sure is wide". Then again, my wife is 100% Italian but every once in a while she has a little bit of Polack in her grin Not unusual for people of a different nationality that get tagged with the wrong last name. Years ago, a fellow by the name of Bennie Iusa worked for me. When he came over, he couldn't speak English. When asked his name he didn't understand and said "I USA". That's how he got his last name. TRUE! Ted |
