Time for something different....

A plane is about to crash. There are 5 passengers on board, but only 4 parachutes.

The first passenger says, "I am Ronaldo, the best football player in the world. The football world needs me, and I cannot die on my fans." He grabs a parachute and jumps out of the plane.

The second passenger, Hillary Clinton says, "I am the wife of a former president of the United States; I am a Senator from New York and I have a good chance of being president of the United States in the future." She grabs the second parachute and dives out of the plane.

The third passenger, George W. Bush says, "I am the president of the United States. I have huge responsibilities in the world. Besides I am the smartest president in the history of my country and can't shun the responsibility to my people by dying." So, he grabs a pack and jumps from the plane.

The fourth passenger, the Pope, says to the fifth passenger, a young school boy, "I am old. I have lived my life as a good person as a priest should and so I shall leave the last parachute to you; you have the rest of your life ahead of you."

To this the little boy says, "Don't fret, old man. There is a parachute for each of us! The smartest president of America took my school bag....."

2. I heard that one on the Summer Camp Circuit when I was 9 years old...

...old as the hills, but I agree, some humor is desperately needed around here.

BTW, what were Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, the Pope, Ronaldo, and some innocent little boy all doing on the same plane?
