Bit cruel???

It's very good ....
.... but, unfortunately, in the current climate, I think if you were actually to do this on an aircraft you'd probably get shot by an air marshal or something!

Yeah I know but it's still funny! (well I thought so anyway)

The was a story going around some years ago about Barry Humphries (Dame Edna) & how he was banned by Qantas. I don't know how true it is:

When he boarded the plane and taken his seat, Barry emptied a jar of Heinz Sandwich Spread into the sick bag.

After the plane took off, he starting moaning & groaning, pretending to be queezy.

When he had everyones' attention, grabbed the sick bag and pretended to throw-up in it.

He then pulled out a spoon and started to eat the contents of the sick bag.

I'll leave you to imagine what the other passengers did on seeing this - it took Qantas some time to clean the plane afterwards.

Cheers

Yes, it is very funny

Nigel's story about Barry Humphries reminded me of a stunt we used to pull whenI was in the Navy, stationed at Culdrose. Coming back from a weekend in London we used to get the overnight Paddington - Penzance train. (This is in the days of passenger compartments with sliding doors). We couldn't afford to pay for sleeping births, so we'd board the train early, two guys to a compartment, so we could stretch out and get some sleep. We'd pull down the blinds then pour some sandwich spread on to the floor, topped off with the contents of a miniature whisky bottle. If anyone opened the door the sight and the smell was enough to ensure we were left alone !.

Now here's a way to shut up the passenger next to you on the flight .......

A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each other on a long flight.

The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game.

The blonde is tired and just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists, that the game is a lot of fun.

"I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5, you ask me one and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."

This catches the blonde's attention and to keep him quiet, she agrees to play the game.
The lawyer asks the first question . . . "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"
The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches in to her purse,
pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.

Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"

The lawyer uses his laptop, searches all references. He uses the Air-phone, he searches the Net and even the Library of Congress. He sends E-mails to all the smart friends he knows. All to no avail.
After one hour of searching he finally gives up. He wakes up the blonde and hands her $500.
The blonde takes the $500 and goes back to sleep.

The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes her up and asks."Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"

The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.
