Gem shared by my friend Salil Dutt

A 777 was lumbering along when a cocky F-16 flashed by.
The jet pilot decided to show off. The fighter jock told the 777 pilot, “Watch this!” And promptly went into a barrel roll followed by a steep climb. He then finished with a sonic boom as he broke the sound barrier.
The F-16 pilot asked the 777 pilot what he thought of that?
The 777 pilot said, “That was impressive, but watch this!”
The 777 droned along for about 5 minutes and then the 777 pilot came back on and said, “What did you think of that?”
Puzzled, the F-16 pilot asked, “What the heck did you do?”
The 777 pilot chuckled and said,
“I stood up, stretched my legs, walked to the back, used the toilet, then got a cup of coffee and a cinnamon roll n secured a date for the next 3 nights in a five star hotel paid for by the company"
When you are young & foolish - speed & flash may seem like a good thing!
When you get older & smarter - comfort & dullness is not such a bad thing!
It's called S.O.S. -
Slower, Older and Smarter!
Dedicated to all my friends approaching the S.O.S. category. 😊
