The jetliner was taking off from O’Hare. Shortly after it reached the cruising altitude, the captain began his normal welcoming remarks:
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight 4295, nonstop from Chicago to Newark. Our weather ahead is good and with the tail wind we anticipate a smooth and uneventful flight. So sit back and relax – OH NO! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!”
Silence followed and after a few minutes, the intercom came to life once again. The calm voice of the captain said,
“Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier, but while I was finishing my announcement, the flight-attendant brought me a cup of coffee and spilled the whole thing right my lap. You should see the front of my pants!”
A passenger in Coach said, “Yeah, right. He should see the back of mine!”
