I think I've sat next to this "Salesman from _______" on a
number of flights...

Subject: Fw: Little Tommy

 Little Tommy was in his seat on an airplane when a fellow
passenger took
 the seat next to him.  The stranger said "Hi....as long as
we are going to
 be traveling companions for the next three hours lets talk
..... I've heard
 that flights will go quicker if you strike up a
conversation with your fellow passenger."

Little Tommy, who had just opened his book, closed it
slowly, and said to the stranger, "What would you like to
discuss?"   "Oh, I don't know," said the stranger. "How
about nuclear power?"  "OK," said Little Tommy. "That could
be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question
first.    A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. They all
eat the same  stuff.   Yet a deer excretes little pellets,
while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces
clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"

"Jeez," said the stranger. "I have no idea."

"Well,then," said Little Tommy, "How is it that you feel
qualified to
discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?"
