Tam and Jimmy were a couple of drinking pals who worked as aircraft mechanics at Glasgow Airport.

One day the airport was fogged in and they were stuck in the hanger with nothing to do.

Tam said, "Jeez, I wish we had something to drink!"

Jimmy says, "Me as weel. Y'ken, I've heard ye can swallie jet fuel an' get a buzz.  Ye gonnae try it?"

So they pour themselves a couple of glasses of high-octane hooch and get completely smashed.

The next morning Tam wakes up and is surprised at how good he feels. In fact he feels GREAT!

NO hangover! NO bad side effects.  NOTHING!

Then the phone rings ... It's Jimmy.

Jimmy says, "Hey, how dae ye feel this mornin'?"

Tam says, "Brilliant!  Whit aboot yersel'?"

Jimmy says, "Ah feel great, tae. Dae ye hiv a sair hied?"

Tam says, "Naw, that jet fuel is great stuff - nae hangover, nothin!  We need tae drink this stuff insteed o' Smirnoff."

"Aye!   But there's just wan thing ....."

"Whit's that?"

"Huv ye farted yet?"

"Naw ....."

"Well, DINNAE, 'cause ah'm in Dusseldorf an me arse is fire !"

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Grin Grin Grin Grin the accent makes it even funnier.... Grin Grin Grin Grin
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
