His request approved, the Fox News photographer quickly used a cell phone to call the local airport to charter a flight. He was told a twin engine plane would be waiting for him at the airport.
Arriving at the airfield, he spotted a plane warming up outside a hanger. He jumped in with his bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted, "Let's go".
The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and took off. Once in the air, the photographer instructed the pilot, "Fly over the valley and make low passes so I can take pictures of the fires on the hillsides."
"Why?" asked the pilot.
"Because I'm a photographer for Fox Cable News," he responded. "And I need to get some close up shots."
The pilot was strangely silent for a moment, finally he stammered,
"So, what you're telling me, is ... you're NOT my flight instructor?"
There were three construction workers, one Chinese, one Mexican and one blonde. Everyday at lunch they would sit at the top of a very tall building to eat. One day, the Mexican said, "If my wife makes me one more burrito I'm going to jump off this building!"
The Chinese man said, "If my wife makes me one more egg roll I'm going to jump off this building, too!"
The blonde said: "If I get one more Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich I'm going to jump off this building, too!"
Surely enough the Mexican got burritos, the Chinese got egg rolls and the blonde got Peanut Butter and Jelly.
At the funeral, the Chinese widow and the Mexican widow were huddled together saying, "I should have listened to him. I didn't think he would actually do it!"
And the blonde's wife was just sitting there looking confused. The other widows came over and asked her why she wasn't crying.
She replied, "I'm confused. I didn't make his lunch...he made his own!"
