Some Boeing employees recently "liberated" a life raft
from one of the 747s on the company's production line.
Later, they took it for a float on the Stilliguamish
river. Imagine their surprise when a Coast Guard helicopter
"rescued" them after homing in on the emergency locator
beacon that activated when the raft was inflated. Not
surprisingly, they no longer work at Boeing. 

I was on a Southwest flight once that was delayed at the gate 
after everyone boarded.   The flight attendant said over the 
intercom, "We're sorry for the delay.  The machine that normally 
rips the handles off your luggage is broken, so we're having to 
do it by hand.   We should be finished and on our way shortly."

Michele's son was attending the  Cub Scout meeting.  One of
the other parents there asked what was going to happen
Thanksgiving week -- was there going to be a meeting or not. 
The Scout Leader replied, (no kidding), "We'll just have to
see what day Thanksgiving falls on this year."
