Someone sent this to me. It's supposed to be a true story; whether it is or not, it's funny!

Seeing Eye Dog

A buddy of mine was flying from San Antonio to Baltimore. Unexpectedly, the plane stopped in Nashville along the way. The flight attendant explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to get off the aircraft, the plane would re-board in 50 minutes.

Everybody got off the plane except one gentleman who was blind. My buddy had noticed him as he walked by and could tell the man was blind because his seeing eye dog lay quietly underneath the seats in front of him throughout the entire flight. He could also tell he had flown this very flight before because the pilot approached him, and calling him by name, said, "Keith, we're in Nashville for almost an hour. Would you like to get off and stretch your legs?"

The blind guy replied, "No thanks, but maybe my dog would like to stretch his legs."

Picture this: All the people in the gate area came to a complete quiet stand-still when they looked up and saw the pilot walk off the plane with the seeing eye dog! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered. They not only tried to change planes, but they were trying to change airlines!

True story...

???? um i dont get it. could you explain the funny part? this happens to me often
You probably just haven't seen a blind person walking with their dog. The seeing eye dogs wear a special harness, and many blind persons wear sunglasses, so it's a safe bet to think that if you see a person wearing sunglasses walking a dog with that type of harness, that person is blind.

Now, wouldn't it scare you to see the pilot of the flight you were taking walking away from - or to - the plane, wearing sunglasses, with a seeing eye dog?

Hope that helps! When I was your age I missed some jokes, too. Still do!
