Jet Blue Analogy

Mitch tried to be cute today:

Yesterday, in an Alternate Universe

"Hello, this is your pilot, Kathleen Blanco."

"The nose wheel on our landing gear is jammed ninety degrees in the wrong direction."

"Each of you is now responsible for getting yourself safely to the ground. If it doesn't work...blame the Feds for not having a plan to get you out of a crippled airplane".

"So long, and thanks for flying Jet Blue"

Fecke couldn't let that pass, so offered this:

"Hello, this is your pilot, George W. Bush."

"The nose wheel on our landing gear is jammed ninety degrees in the wrong direction."

"I'll be getting around to taking a look at the problem sometime in the next four to six days. Hey, nobody could've predicted that there might be a problem with the landing gear, anyhow."

"At any rate, I'd like to thank the Senior Vice President in charge of Repairs, Michael Brown, for his fine work in preparing us. You're doing a heckuva job, Brownie."

"So long, and thanks for flying Jet Blue"

Two perceptions, one admittedly from an alternate universe, the other from the Reality based community. One based in fantasy, the other based on fact.
