From the pilot of Gunfighter.
Subject: Let Talk Deadheading
A deadheading pilot and a passenger were riding in coach. The passenger says to the pilot, "Let's talk. I hear that the flights go faster if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The pilot, who had just opened a book, closed it and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
The passenger says, "Oh, I don't know; how about we discuss Airline safety."
The pilot says, "Well, let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all pretty much eat the same thing, but the deer toejams out pellets; the cow toejams big patties; and the horse toejams clumps of dried grass. Why is that?"
The passenger says, "I don't know."
The pilot says, "Oh? Then how can you expect to talk about aviation safety when you don't know toejam."
