------- Forwarded foolishness follows -------
Two hunters got a pilot to fly them into the far north for elk hunting.
They were quite successful in their venture, and bagged six big bucks.
The pilot came back as arranged to pick them up. They started loading
their gear into the plane, including the six elk. But the pilot
objected; said he, "The plane can take out only four of your elk; you
will have to leave two behind."
They argued with him; the year before they had shot six and the pilot
had allowed them to put all aboard, and the plane was just the same
model and capacity as this. Reluctantly the pilot finally permitted them
to put all six aboard.
But when they attempted to take off and leave the valley where they
were, the little plane could not make it, and they crashed in the
wilderness. Climbing out of the wreckage, one hunter said to the other,
"Do you know where we are?"
"I think so," replied the other hunter. "I think this is about the same
place where we landed last year."
