Why did they send dogs and monkeys into space first?

If they had sent ducks the bills would have been astronomical!

Accordion to scientific studies,

A Boeing 737 Max flight attendant walks into a bar and orders a martini.

“You’re here later than usual,” the bartender comments. “Problems at work?”

“Yes, just as our flight was about to take off, we had to turn around and wait at the gate for an hour.”

“What was the problem?” the bartender asks.

“The pilot was bothered by a noise in the engine,” she replies. “It took us a while to find a new pilot.”

A vulture walks into an airplane with a rotting corpse.

The flight attendant screams, “You cannot bring that on this plane.”

The vulture says, “It’s just my carrion.”

Forget about the past, you can’t change it.
Forget about the future, you can’t predict it.
Forget about the present, I didn’t get you one.  
(well, unless you count bad jokes....then you really won out!)

Every year on my birthday, I looked forward to my aunt’s gift—a scarf, hat, or sweater knitted by hand. One year, she must have had better things to do because I received a ball of yarn, knitting needles, and a how-to-knit book. Her card read, “Scarf, some assembly required.”

You know you’re getting old when you go to an antique auction and three people bid on you.
(I stay away from auctions)

I bought my friend a fridge for his birthday. You should have seen his face light up when he opened it.

Happy you are very special day!!!  Hugs!

I took my dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes, (he is in his 90's).
We decided to grab some food at the food court.
I noticed he was watch the teenager sitting next to him.  The teenager had spiked hair, all different colors.
My dad kept staring at him.  The teenager would look and see him staring at him every time.
When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked: "What's the matter old man? Never done anything wild in your life?"
Dad didn't bat an eye in his response:  "Got drunk once, had sex with a peacock.  I was just wondering if you were my son."

Real funny, Scotty, now beam down my clothes!

I thought it was a bit odd. Then I realized he was one of those plane clothes cops.

Because today is Pi Day . . .

Why did the pie go to the dentist?  
Because it needed a filling!

What do you call a pie that can fly?
A pie-lot!

Why did the apple pie cry?
Its peelings were hurt!

Why are dogs like phones?

Both have collar ID

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

A plane lands, and shortly after, the flight attendant comes over the speaker.
“Hi, folks! Sorry about that rough landing. It wasn’t the captain’s fault. It definitely wasn’t my fault… It was the asphalt.”
