Two blind pilots were both wearing dark glasses. One is using a guide

dog and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.

Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the

cockpit, the door closes and the engines start up. The passengers

begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign that this is

just a little practical joke. None is forthcoming. The plane moves

faster and faster down the runway and the people sitting in the window

seats realize they're headed straight for the water at the edge of the

airport. As it begins to look as though the plane will plough into the

water, panicked screams fill the cabin. At that moment, the plane

lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little

sheepishly and soon all retreat into their magazines, secure in the

knowledge that the plane is in good hands. In the cockpit, one of the

blind pilots turns to the other and says, "Ya know, Bob, one of these

days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna die."
