Joke: Five People, Four Parachutes

An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board, butonly 4 parachutes.

The first passenger said, "I am Kobe Bryant, the best NBA  basketballplayer;  the Lakers need me, I can't afford to die." So he took thefirst pack and left the plane.

The second passenger, Hillary Clinton said, "I am the wife of the former U.S. President, a Senator from New York, and a potential future president. And I am the smartest woman in American history, so America's people  don't want me to die." She took the second pack and jumped out of the plane.

The third passenger, John Kerry, said, "I'm a big hero who served fourmonths in Vietnam and know whats best for the people of the  UnitedStates of America". I am also going to be my parties nominee forPresident.  So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped.

The fourth passenger, President George W. Bush, said to the fifthpassenger, a 10-year-old schoolgirl, "I have lived a full life, andserved my country well, I will sacrifice my life and let you have thelast parachute."

The girl said, "That's okay. There's a parachute left for you. America's smartest woman took my schoolbag."

You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world, but when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird... So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing -- that's what counts. I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something. --Richard Feynman

iPod Sighting at Olympics

Watching Michael Phelps get ready for his Gold metal and world record breaking swimming race tonight, I noticed that he's listening to an iPod. I'll bet it was 'Eye of the Tiger'.
