The passengers are French, British, American and Mexican. The Frenchman stands up, cries, "Vive la France!" and jumps out. But the plane is still too heavy. The Britisher stands and shouts, "God save the Queen!" and jumps out. The plane is STILL too heavy. The American stands and yells, "Remember the Alamo!" and chucks out the Mexican. -- Allan Pratt ...decvax!ihnp4!iuvax!isrnix!akp
