Sarah Palin and The First Dude were off on their annual trip to the Alaskan wilderness to bag moose. As the seaplane landed on a lake in a remote area, the pilot said, "I'll be back in one week to pick you up. But only one moose please." When he returned to the lake, he found Sarah and The Dude proudly standing beside two moose. "I told you guys only to bring back one moose!" the furious flier screamed. "There's no way the plane can take off with that much weight!" "You're just a chicken pilot," Sarah Palin said. "We killed two moose last year, and that pilot wasn't afraid to take off." Stung by the suggestion of cowardice, the pilot reconsidered. "All right, if you did it last year, I guess we can try it." So they loaded up, and the pilot taxied to the far end of the lake to begin his takeoff. The plane bounced across the water as it strained to get airborne, but the overloaded aircraft finally ran out of space, and crashed into the trees. Some time later, Sarah and The Dude regained consciousness. "Where are we?" Sarah Palin asked. The First Dude looked around at the scattered debris, then back at the edge of the lake, and replied,"Oh I guess about 100 yards farther than last year." |
