A Long Hard Swim
By Ronnie Wyatt
While sports fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist capsized his boat. He could swim, but his fear of alligators kept him clinging to the overturned craft. Spotting an old beachcomber standing on the shore, the tourist shouted”, Are there any gators around here?!” “ Naw," the man hollered back, "we haven’t had gators around for years!” Feeling safe, the tourist started swimming leisurely toward the shore. About halfway there he yelled to the local man, "How'd you get rid of the gators?” "We didn't do nothin'," the beachcomber said. "The sharks got 'em."

Two hunters got a pilot to fly them into the far north for elk hunting. The pilot was having a hard time finding a place to land when one of the hunters said, “See that small strip of land over there? That’s where we landed last year.” The pilot was not too thrilled about the idea, but he agreed to land in the small spot. He dropped the hunters off and agreed to come back in four days to pick them up.
The Possum Whisperer

I’ve worn a lot of hats in my life, but I never thought I’d wear one that read “Possum Whisperer.” But following a bizarre encounter in my kitchen, the name seems appropriate.
My husband, Al, and I had just stepped outside onto the patio when we spotted an ugly, furry creature streak past us and into the shrubbery. We looked at one another and spoke one word: “Rat”.

My wife was gone for two weeks visiting family and friends – she finally got back home late last night. We spent the day together today and she told me that she’d brought something back home with her from Kansas City.
Pilot Brothers

The Chief of Staff of the US Air Force decided that he would personally intervene in the recruiting crisis affecting all of our armed services. So, he directed that a nearby Air Force base be opened and that all eligible young men and women be invited. As he and his staff were standing near a brand new F-15 Fighter, a pair of twin brothers who looked like they had just stepped off a Marine Corps recruiting poster walked up to them. The Chief of Staff walked up to them, stuck out his hand, and introduced himself. He looked at the first young man and asked, "Son, what skills can you bring to the Air Force?"
