The Aisle Seat

[Donald Aquilano]

The Aisle Seat

Two radical Arab terrorists boarded a flight out of London.
One took a window seat and the other sat next to him in the middle seat.
Just before takeoff, a U.S. Marine sat down in the aisle seat. After
takeoff, the Marine kicked his shoes off, wiggled his toes and was settling
in when the Arab in the window seat said, 'I need to get up and get a Coke.'

'Don't get up,' said the Marine, 'I'm in the aisle seat, I'll get it for
you.'

As soon as he left, one of the Arabs picked up the Marine's shoe and spat in
it. When the Marine returned with the Coke, the other Arab said, 'That looks
good, I'd really like one, too. '

Again, the Marine obligingly went to fetch it. While he was gone, the other
Arab picked up the Marine's other shoe and spat in it. When the Marine
returned, they all sat back and enjoyed the flight.

As the plane was landing, the Marine slipped his feet into his shoes and
knew immediately what had happened. He leaned over and asked his Arab
neighbors...
'Why does it have to be this w ay? How long must this go on? This fighting
between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and
pissing in Cokes?'

THE FEW. THE PROUD.. THE MARINES
