Polish scientists
A bunch of Polish scientists decided to flee their repressive government by hijacking an airliner and forcing the pilot to fly them to a western country. They drove to the airport, forced their way on board a large passenger jet, and found there was no pilot on board. Terrified, they listened as the sirens got louder. Finally, one of the scientists suggested that since he was an experimentalist, he would try to fly the aircraft.

He sat down at the controls and tried to figure them out. The sirens got louder and louder. Armed men surrounded the jet. The would be pilot's friends cried out, "Please, please take off now!!! Hurry!!!"

The experimentalist calmly replied, "Have patience. I'm just a simple pole in a complex plane."

1. I've got a better one
AP) A horrible tragedy happened just outside of Warsaw today. A Cessna 152 crashed into a cemetery. So far emergency workers have recovered 215 bodies.:evilgrin:



For the aeronautically challenged, a Cessna 152 has 2 seats.
