# A photographer for a national magazine was assigned to get photos of a great forest fire. Smoke at the scene was too thick to get any good shots, so he frantically called his home office to hire a plane.


"It will be waiting for you at the airport!" he was assured by his editor. As soon as he got to the small, rural airport, sure enough, a plane was warming up near the runway. He jumped in with his equipment and yelled, "Let's go! Let's go!" The pilot swung the plane into the wind and soon they were in the air.


"Fly over the north side of the fire," said the photographer, "and make three or four low level passes.""Why?" asked the pilot."Because I'm going to take pictures! I'm a photographer, and photographers take pictures!" said the photographer with great exasperation.After a long pause the pilot said, "You mean you're not the instructor?"







# When a visitor to a small town in Georgia came upon a wild dog attacking a young boy, he quickly grabbed the animal and throttled it with his two hands.


A reporter saw the incident, congratulated the man and told him the headline the following day would read, "Valiant Local Man Saves Child by Killing Vicious Animal."
The hero told the journalist that he wasn't from that town.


"Well, then," the reporter said, "the headline will probably say, 'Georgia Man Saves Child by Killing Dog'."


"Actually," the man said, "I'm from Connecticut."


"In that case," the reporter said in a huff, "the headline should read, 'Yankee Kills Family Pet'."

Policeman Ordered to Drink His Own Urine

Policeman Ordered to Drink His Own Urine

Airport security staff ordered a retired policeman to drink his own urine sample to prove it was safe.


Yu Fahai, 58, was going through security at Pudong International Airport in Shanghai, when he was challenged over a bottle of liquid in his pocket.


Yu, who received a kidney transplant several years ago, has to regularly test his urine for infection, reports News Morning.


"The checker asked me what was inside, and I told her it was my urine. She said: "Urine? Drink some to prove it"," said Yu at his home in Chibi, Hubei province.


Yu, who was taking his first ever flight after attending a TV awards ceremony in Shanghai, has now lodged a complaint against the airport.


An airport spokesman said the security guard mistakenly heard the word 'urine' as 'beverage', and claimed Yu had his boarding card in his mouth, making his pronunciation unclear.


The spokesman added that national regulations forbid passengers from taking liquids on flights but an exception was made for Mr Yu because of his medical history. He also apologised.
