My friend Larry was busy tonight. I'm sharing the wealth. Don't complain. You don't know what I didn't post.

A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble.

In spite of the best efforts of the pilot the plane started to go down. Finally the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the passengers that they had better jump, and bailed out. Unfortunately there were only three parachutes remaining.

The doctor grabbed one and said "I'm a doctor, I save lives, so I must live," and jumped out.

The lawyer then said, "I'm the smartest man in the world, I deserve to live!" He grabbed a parachute and jumped.

The priest looked at the little boy and said, "My son, I've lived a long and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live in peace."

The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said "Not to worry, Father. The smartest man in the world just took off with my backpack."

I'd rather see the priest go. Or both. They're both lying their asses off.

Couldn't they all have survived? By someone holding on to someone else?

Too bad MacGyver wasn't there. He's make a parachute out of some gum, bailing wire, an arctic banana and some pocket lint. And with the excess materials, he'd make some C-4.
