Parachuting

On our first day of training for a charity parachute jump, the instructor made an important point.

"Start preparing for landing when you're at 300 feet."

One student asked, "How do you know when you're at 300 feet"?

"A good question. At 300 feet, you can recognize the faces of people on the ground."

She thought about this for a moment before saying, "What happens if there's no one there I know"?

Dining Problem

Everyone had weighed in and our diet workshop leader began her lecture on the week's topic: "The Problems of Dining Out."

She talked about alternatives, such as requesting diet sodas and dressings and having meat broiled instead of fried.

Finally, she turned the question over to the group for discussion. "What is the greatest problem you encounter when going out to eat"?

Replied one woman quickly, "Running into you!"
