The First Date

A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about. He asks his father for advice.

The father replies:

- My son, there are three subjects that always work. These are food, family, and philosophy.

The boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain. Ice cream sodas in front of them, they stare at each other for a long time, as the boy's nervousness builds.

He remembers his father's advice, and chooses the first topic.

He asks the girl:

- Do you like spinach?

She says:

- No, and the silence returns.

After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father's suggestion and turns to the second item on the list. He asks:

- Do you have a brother?

Again, the girl says:

- No, and there is silence once again.

The boy then plays his last card. He thinks of his father's advice and asks the girl the following question:

- If you had a brother, would he like spinach?

The Gate Agent

An award should go to the United Airlines gate agent in Denver for being smart and funny, and making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo. During the final days at Denver's old Stapleton airport, a crowded United flight was canceled.

A single agent was rebooking a long line of inconvenienced travelers.
Suddenly, an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk.

He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said:

- I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS.

The agent replied:

- I'm sorry sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first, and I'm sure we'll be able to work something out.

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear:

- Do you have any idea who I am?

Without hesitating, the gate agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone.

- May I have your attention please? - she began, her voice bellowing throughout the terminal.

- We have a passenger here at the gate WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to gate 17.

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the United agent, gritted his teeth and swore:

- F--- you.

Without flinching, she smiled and said:

- I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to stand in line for that, too.
