An old Marine Pilot sat down at the Starbucks, still wearing his old USMC flight suit and leather jacket and ordered a cup of coffee.
As he sat sipping his coffee, a young woman sat down next to him. She turned to the pilot and asked, 'Are you a real pilot?'
He replied, 'Well, I've spent my whole life flying planes, first Stearmans, then the early Grummans... flew a Wildcat and Corsair in WWII, and later in the Korean conflict, Banshees and Cougars. I've taught more than 260 people to fly and given rides to hundreds, so I guess I am a pilot, and you, what are you?
She said, 'I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about naked women. As soon as I get up in the morning, I think about naked women. When I shower, I think about naked women. When I watch TV, I think about naked women. It seems everything makes me think of naked women.'
The two sat sipping in silence.
A little while later, a young man sat down on the other side of the old pilot and asked: "are you a real pilot?"
He replied, 'I always thought I was, but I just found out I'm a lesbian.'
Stari mornarički pilot sjede u Starbaks, u svom starom pilotskom odelu i kožnoj jakni, i naruči kafu.
Dok je pio kafu, jedna mlađa žena je sela pored njega. Ona ga upita: ,,Da li ste vi pravi pilot ?''.
On odgovori: ,, Pa, ceo život sam proveo pilotirajući, prvo ,,Stearman''-e, zarim prve ,,Grumman''-e... leteo sam u ,,Wildcat''-u i ,,Corsair''-u u Drugom Svetskom, a posle u Korejskom sukobu u ,,Banshee''-u i ,,Cougar''-u. Naučio sam preko 260 ljudi da lete i prevezao ih stotine, pa pretpostavljam da sam pilot, a ti, šta si?''.
Ona reče: ,, Ja sam lezbejka. Cele dane provodim razmišljajući o golim ženama. Čim se probudim, razmišljam o golim ženama. Kad se tuširam, razmišljam o golim ženama. Dok gledam TV, razmišljam o golim ženama. Izgleda da uvek razmišljam o golim ženama.''
Tako su sedeli u tišini, pijuckajući kafu.
Nedugo zatim, jedan mlađi čovek sede s druge strane pilota i upita ga: ,,Da li ste vi pravi pilot?''.
On odgovori: ,,Oduvek sam mislio da jesam, ali sam upravo saznao da sam lezbejka''.
