LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE
LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE
A man was seated next to a little girl on an airplane when the stranger turned to her and said,
"Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, "What would you like to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know,"
said the stranger. "How about
nuclear power?" and he smiles.
"OK," she said. "That could be an interesting topic.
But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow,
and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a
deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
The stranger, visibly surprised by the little girl's
intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Then, do you really feel
you are qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know ****?"
The stranger turned his back and tried to go to sleep ! !
