Once upon a time NASA decided to send three
astronauts to space for 2 years.
NASA allowed each of them to take 200 pounds
of baggage each.
The first astronaut decided to take along his wife,
the second decided to take along books to learn how
to speak German, while the third astronaut decided to
take along cigarettes.
Two years later, when the space shuttle landed,
there was a big crowd waiting to welcome them home.
First came the first astronaut and his wife and each
of them had a baby in their arms.
Next, out came the second astronaut speaking
fluent German.
They both gave their speeches and got a rousing
applause.
Suddenly out came the third astronaut with a cigarette
in his mouth.
He walked up to the podium and snarled to the crowd
and asked, "Has anyone got a match?"
