A congressman was seated next to a little girl on an airplane so he turned to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the congressman. "How about global warming, universal health care or stimulus packages?" as he smiled smugly.
"OK," she said.. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"
The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming, universal health care or the economy when you don't know $**t?"
And then she went back to reading her book.

A friend of ours was on a commercial flight that was landing at an airport where my hubby was waiting to meet him.
The plane had to make an emergency landing. The passengers were told to lean over and put their heads between their legs. The man sitting next to him was really scared.
When they landed safely and were getting off the plane, the man was still sweating bullets and very upset. He told our friend that it was the first time he'd ever been in a landing where they'd made the passengers put their heads between their legs.
Our friend said, "Do you know why they make you do that?"
The man said, "No."
Our friend said, "So you can kiss your sweet a$$ goodbye."
Not as funny as the little girl joke.
