Air Traffic Control The controller working a busy pattern told the 727

on downwind to make a 360. The pilot of the 727complained, “Do you know it costs us two thousanddollars to make a 360 in this airplane?” Without miss-ing a beat the controller replied, “Roger, give me fourthousand dollars worth.”

----------------------------------------------------------------PSA was following United, taxiing out for depar-

ture. PSA called the tower and said “Tower, this isUnited 586. We’ve got a little problem, so go aheadand let PSA go first.” The tower promptly cleared PSAfor takeoff before United had a chance to object to theimpersonation.

----------------------------------------------------------------A DC-10 had an exceedingly long landing rollout

after landing with his approach speed just a little tohigh... San Jose Tower: “American 751 Heavy, turnright at the end if able. If not able, take the Guadalupeexit off of Highway 101 back to the airport.

The Amateur PhotographerAn amateur photographer was invited to dinner

with friends and took along a few pictures to show thehostess. She looked at the photos and commented“These are very good! You must have a good camera.”

He didn’t make any comment, but, as he was leav-ing to go home he said “That was a really deliciousmeal! You must have some very good pots.”

Airline Food It was mealtime on a small airline and the flight

attendant asked the passenger if he would like dinner. “What are my choices?” he asked. She replied, “Yes or No.”

Plan to be spontaneous, tomorrow.

St. Patrick’s Day CruiseMarch 17 at 8:15 PM

THERE BE LEPRECHAUNS IN THE GALLEY!BIG ONES TOO!!!!!!!

Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of Rum! Here’s to ya! Comeaboard the biggest party in Saint Augustine and beentertained by our Pirates! Sea shanties, comedic acts,an oversized leprechaun and even GREEN BEER!

A Saint Patty’s favorite! No need to find a rainbow,your Pot of Gold awaits you !

Buy your tickets NOW, limited seating: ClickHERE to buy.

This is a Club 21+ rated cruise (adults only).

Club 21+ – Entertainment fora Mature Audience

This cruise is different from our regular family pro-gram. We never know how the show will turn out, itall depends on the audience that particular evening.The audience may set the stage or the pirates may takeit “their way.”

One thing we do know and that is that is that weentertain on a different level. The language and thesong lyrics are somewhat different, more adult orientedand may not be suitable for the everybody. It is nevertoo rough or goes overboard but, everything is relativedepending on each individual’s opinion about life andentertainment.

If you like to have fun and laugh with your pals andmeet new friends, this cruise is for you. On the otherhand, if you can’t stand a few “adult words” in afriendly but funny way or if you rather prefer a relaxedand more secluded atmosphere, you may feel morecomfortable on our Family cruise.

The 21+ Cruise is a rich blend of skits, stories, triv-ia, songs, and more, all performed by exceptionallytalented entertainers, singers and actors. Enjoy yourfavorite libation in our fully licensed bar and join inwith us singing the great music and shanties of old.

Aviation 101 • Takeoff’s are optional. Landings are mandatory. • If you push the stick forward, the houses get bigger,

if you pull the stick back they get smaller. (Unlessyou keep pulling the stick back -- then they getbigger again)

• Flying is not dangerous; crashing is dangerous. • It’s better to be down here wishing you were up

there, than up there wishing you were down here. • The propeller is just a big fan in the front of the

plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make itstop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat.

• Speed is life, altitude is life insurance. No one hasever collided with the sky.

• It’s best to keep the pointed end going forward asmuch as possible.

• The only time you have too much fuel is whenyou’re on fire.
