SMART :censored: ANSWER OF THE YEAR
6th Place
It was mealtime during a flight on a British Airways plane:
'Would you like dinner?' the flight attendant asked the man seated in the front row.
'What are my choices?' the man asked.
'Yes or no,' she replied.
5th Place
A flight attendant was stationed at the departure gate to check tickets.
As a man approached, she extended her hand for the ticket and he opened his trench coat and flashed her.
Without blinking an eyelid she said,
'Sir, I need to see your ticket not your stub.'
4th Place
A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at Bi-Lo, but she couldn't find one big enough for her family.
She asked a passing assistant, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'
The assistant replied, 'I'm afraid not, they're dead.'
3rd Place
The policeman got out of his car and approached the boy racer he stopped for speeding.
'I've been waiting for you all day,' the copper said.
The kid replied, 'Yes, well I got here as fast as I could.'
When the policeman finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a ticket.
2nd Place
A truck driver was driving along on a country road.
A sign came up that read 'Low Bridge Ahead.'
Before he realised it, the bridge was directly ahead and he got stuck under it.
Cars are backed up for miles.
Finally, a police car comes up.
The policeman got out of his car and walked to the truck's cab
And said to the driver,
'Got stuck, eh?'
The truck driver said, 'No, I was delivering this bridge and ran out of petrol !'
#1 SMART ANSWER OF THE YEAR
A teacher reminded her pupils of tomorrow's final exam.
'Now listen to me, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow.
I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family,
but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!'
A smart-arsed guy at the back of the room raised his hand and asked,
'What would happen if I came in tomorrow suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?'
The entire class was reduced to laughter and sniggering.
When silence was restored, the teacher smiled knowingly at the student, shook her head and sweetly said,
'Well, I suppose you'd have to write with your other hand'.

LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

True Story
Exchange at a DIY store
Customer approaches desk at the front of the store carring 5ft curtain pole.
Customer to Manager "I want a refund, its the wrong size"
Manager "No its not"
Customer "yes it is, I WANT a refund"
Manager pulls out tape measure and measures the pole, says to customer " You are wrong it IS the correct size, it measures 5ft AND says 5ft on box" (Manager then refuses refund)
(Slightly abbreviated not showing full extent of customers anger!!)ALTERNATIVES...............No alternatives for off-road capability.
If you want Surrey plush, go for a Range Rover. If you want Manchester bling it's the Range Rover Sport. But if it's a seven-seat, go anywhere 4x4, it's time to Disco.

I was on a flight from Adelaide to Whyalla once and bits of the wing and engine cowling started flapping about so I told the flight attendant. she returned from the cockpit and said that the pilot wont go out and look at it just right now but will check when we land .
its only a 50 minute flight.
later in the flight bits started falling off so told the attendant with a smirk on my face and the pilot came out this time (a tad embarresed )we then returned to Adelaide when almost at our destination (Whyalla does not have the facilities to fix it)
