To all of my older but smarter friends. Enjoy.
A Boeing 777 wide-body jetliner was lumbering along @ 800km/hr @ 33,000 ft,
when a cocky F-16 jet fighter flashed by at Mach 2.
The F-16 pilot decided to show off. On his state of the art radio that is part of
his state of the art 3D & $2 million headset, the F-16 youngster told the
777 pilot, “Hey Captain, watch this!”
He promptly went into a barrel roll, followed by a steep, unimaginable, vertical
climb. He then finished with a sonic boom as he broke the sound barrier, as
the F-16 screamed down at impossible G’s before leveling at almost sea level.
The F-16 pilot asked the 777 pilot: "What did you think of that?"
The 777 pilot said, “That was truly impressive, but now watch this!”
The 777 chugged along for about 5 minutes at the steady 800km/hour, and
then the 777 pilot came back on and said, “Well, what did YOU think of that?”
Puzzled, the cocky F-16 pilot asked, “What the heck did you DO?”
The 777 pilot chuckled and said, "I stood up, stretched my legs, walked to
the back, used the toilet, then got a cup of coffee and a cinnamon roll and
secured a date for the next 3 nights in a 5-star hotel paid for by the company"
LESSON OF LIFE:
When you are young and foolish, speed and flash may seem like a good thing!
When you get older and smarter, comfort and routine is not such a bad thing!
It's called S.O.S.
Slower, Older and Smarter!
Dedicated to all my friends approaching or enjoying S.O.S.
"Don't take life too seriously. No one gets out alive anyway." :-D
