About planes:

He asked why people say: “It’s time to get *on* the plane”.

His reply: “No, I’ll be going *in* the plane”.

Billy Connelly has some great early stand-up about airlines, too. Why call the seats flotation devices? When a plane falls from 35,000 feet at 600 miles and hour– it is going into a water like a [bleeping] dart… (imagine the thick Scottish Brogue).

Happy Friday, Don.
===================================================
They are good subject matter. The airport, will that be your “final destination?” Uh, I hope so. How about you go there to pick up your ticket and it is called “the terminal” and my favorite. If an Okie is on an airplane that is going down, he doesn’t know if he is going to heaven or hell, he just knows that he is going thru DALLAS first.

Have a good weekend.
