Tho' a serious subject ...

... humor helps in multiple situations. Sooo, hearing the concern we have heard re international flights, and the "bird flu," a friend send me this picture via email.

If you should happen to be taking any international flights anytime soon, do not ... and I repeat DO NOT ... get on any airplane that looks like this (may have to wait a minute or two to see what I'm talking about):

Watch out for these too.

Why not, please? What's wrong with that plane?

[Joanne Vergin]

Carsten, They have planes with feet in Duetchland?

[Carsten Schermuly]

Yes, Ma'am, they have.

Technicians feet, pilots feet, stewardesses feet, passengers feet - and very rarely blind passengers feet and maybe a handful more feet.

You did ask - please why did you ask? Will that mean, planes in the US do NOT have feet?
I will not believe that!

[Carsten Schermuly]

- and please believe that also or not -

planes in the Kingdom of the Netherlands to have camping trailors and planes in Turkey do have roof racks and for really hard winters the bavarians do have planes with snow chains (since really hard winters are unknown over here, such snow chains have never been used - and after related laws top speed while using snow chains is just 50 km/h - too slow to start). But in general - planes are prepared for all possibilities.

... like in Ginas picture by big boots with front lights or barefeet like in Joels.

'Think it's the flapping wings, Carsten ... nothing to do with feet, I don't think. ;)

Now, of course, with Joel's bird-plane that's another story! Webbed feet! :basic05

'Think it's the flapping wings, Carsten ... nothing to do with feet, I don't think. ;)Sorry to contradict, Mylady.

Now I took my looking glasses,

but I can not find another answer. It seems me before as well as after glasses, the big hopping bird does wear black rubber boots. For sure, the many feet, I counted up are not to see, they are inside. This is the reason why he does not climb up, he has eaten tooo much.

Let him jump for a while, it is healthy to loose some pounds, maybe tommorrow he will be off?





Mylady, do you allow me to offer some flowers?

Now you have said, Joels picture does meet another story, I do remember to an ab so lu te ly true story.

Two boys found a bottle of light gasoline in kitchen, their mother used against fat and other spots on clothes. They smelled it and thought it smelled good enaugh to let the cat smell it too and put some spoons full on a dish, set it on floor and have watched the cat. And indeed, it seemed, the cat liked it - and did drink a good portion.

But than - the cat becomes crazy, did jump over all furnitures and maximised the speed and has turned around and around and around on the walls like a motobike rider in circus inside a vertical drum.

Bang!

The cat felt down. No motion. No sign of life. After a short and quiet moment,

one of the boys, "I am afraid, it is dead."
"No, the other replied, I think, the gas is empty."

Thanks, a bit late, for the flowers you left for all of us gals on Valentine's Day. ;)

BTW, guess I didn't look at that plane well/close enough to see that it was wearing boots, as you said. Sorry 'bout dat. :basic05
