An airliner was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a

comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement

over the intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.

Welcome to Flight 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The

weatherahead is good and we should have a smooth and uneventful flight.

Now sit back and relax and...."OH MY GOD!" Silence followed. Then after a

few seconds, the captain came back on the intercom and said,

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I frightened you earlier, but while

I was talking to you, the flight-attendant brought me a cup of hot coffee

and spilled it in my lap." He chuckled and

said,"You should sec the front of my pants!" A passenger in coach yelled

loudly, "That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!"
