Where's my goat?
You know, pilots travel a lot. It's inherent in the job.
Once when I was in Jamaica the Co-Pilot and I went for a walk. Pretty soon we found ourselves walking across an open field and we came upon this large hole in the ground about 20 feet across. I could not see the bottom so I threw in a small rock to see how deep it was. I never did hear it hit bottom so I told the Co-Pilot to get a bigger rock and we'd throw that in.
He brought over a brick and threw it in the hole. We waited and waited but never did hear it hit bottom.
So I said we needed something bigger and found an old railroad tie laying there. We drug it over to the hole and threw it in but never did hear it hit the bottom. While we were listening a strange thing happened.
This goat ran up and jumped in the hole.
Shortly after that, this Jamaican farmer came by and asked: "Hey mon . . . .have you seen my Goat?"
I told him yeah! Your Goat just jumped in this hole!!
He replied "No Mon. That's not my goat. My goat is tied to a railroad tie."
