Live all you can - it's a mistake not to. It doesn't so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven't had that, what have you had?

Brendan had spent a week
visiting his
family in Kentucky. His sister-in-law and seven-year-old
nephew went
with him when he returned to the airport. After verifying his
seat
number with the counter attendant, Brendan walked back to his
relatives and stated that he'd have to wait an additional three hours in
the airport.
"How come?," his nephew asked.
"My plane
has been grounded," Brendan explained.
"Grounded?" the little boy
said. "I didn't know planes had
parents."

An
airline pilot wrote that on this
particular flight he had hammered his
ship into the runway really hard.
The airline had a policy which
required the first officer to stand
at the door while the passengers exited,
smile, and give them a
"Thanks for flying XYZ airline." He said that
in light of his bad
landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers
in the eye, thinking
that someone would have a smart comment. Finally,
everyone had
gotten off except for this little old lady walking with a
cane. She
said, "Sonny, mind if I ask you a question?" "Why no,
Ma'am," said
the pilot, "what is it?" The little old lady said, "Did
we land or
were we shot down?"

An airplane pilot dies at the controls.
He goes to Hell. The devil takes him to the 'newly arrived' area.
There are three doors, marked 1, 2, and 3. The devil tells the pilot
that
he is going to get to choose his own hell, but first, the devil
has to
take care of something first, and disappears.
The
curious pilot looks behind door number one. He sees a pilot going
through flight checks for all eternity. He looks behind door number two,
and he sees a pilot that forever finds himself trying to resolve
emergency situations. He looks behind the last door, and sees a Captain
being
waited on hand and foot by scantily-clad
stewardesses.
The devil returns just as the pilot gets back to his waiting position.
He offers the pilot a choice of door number one or two. The pilot
says,
"I wanted door number three!"
"Sorry," replies the devil,
"that's 'flight attendant's
hell'."

An airplane was flying from LA to New York.
About an
hour into the flight, the pilot announced, "We have lost an
engine,
but don't worry, there are three left. However, instead of 5
hours
it will take 7 hours to get to New York."
A little later, the
pilot announced, "A second engine failed, but we
still have two
left. However, it will take 10 hours to get to New
York."
Somewhat later, the pilot again came on the intercom and announced, "A
third engine had died. Never fear, because the plane can fly on a
single engine. However, it will now take 18 hours to get to new
York."
At this point, one passenger said, "Gee, I hope we don't lose that
last engine, or we'll be up here forever!"
