A preacher, a librarian, and a soldier... ...were on a small airplane when they began to experience some bad turbulence. The captain of the plane instructed them to each throw out some of their personal possessions to reduce the weight of the plane so they could land safely. The preacher threw out some wooden crosses. The librarian threw out several of his favorite books. And the soldier threw out some grenades. Upon landing, the group encountered a little boy who was crying. ""What's wrong?"" asked the preacher. The boy responded, ""I was playing with that little girl over there and some wooden crosses fell on my head!"" The preacher, realizing his mistake, stayed with the boy to comfort him. The librarian and the soldier continued to walk to the nearest town. On the way, they noticed a little girl who was in tears. ""What is the matter?"" asked the librarian. The girl answered, ""I was playing with that little boy over there and some books fell on my head!"" Feeling guilty, the librarian chose to stay with her. The soldier continued to the town on his own. When he reached the town, he saw a boy on a bench, dying of laughter. ""What is so funny, the soldier asked?"" The boy responded, ""I just sat on this bench and farted and then the building behind me blew up!""
