Did you hear about the man who attempted sky-diving for the first
time? His parachute didn't open. Then his auxiliary chute failed.
Now he found himself in free fall with no more options.
Then a strange thing happened. He spotted something coming up
TOWARDS him from the ground at a high rate of speed. It was a
man! When he was sure they would pass one another without a
collision, he shouted down to the figure, "Do you know anything
about parachutes?"
"No!" the man called back. "Do you know anything about gas
stoves?"
