Those German controllers at Frankfurt Airport tend to be a 
short-tempered lot. They not only expect pilots to know their 
parking location but how to get there without any assistance. 

So it was with some amusement that we (PanAm 747) listened 
to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground and a 
British Airways 747 (radio call Speedbird 206) after landing.

Speedbird 206: "Good morning Frankfurt. Speedbird 206 clear 
to active."

Ground: "Good Morning. Taxi to your gate."

The British Airways 747 pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.

Ground: "Speedbird, do you know where you are going?"

Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground. I'm looking up the gate 
location now."

Ground (impatiently): "Speedbird 206, have you never flown to 
Frankfurt before?"

Speedbird 206 (coolly), "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop."

Amazingly, the woman who brought charges against Marv Albert has
announced that she wants to be sportscaster. 

NBC gave her an audition but she sucked. 

I heard Dan Quayle is in favor of a 30% tax cut.  His thinking
must have been "Well, Dole lost with a 15% tax cut, but if I triple
it to 30%, I can win!"
