A mother and her son were flying Southwest Airlines from
Kansas City to Chicago. The son (who had been looking out
the window) turned to his mother and asked, “If big dogs
have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don’t big
planes have baby planes?”
The mother, who couldn’t think of an answer, told her son
to ask the stewardess. So the boy asked the stewardess,
“If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats,
why don’t big planes have baby planes?”
The stewardess responded, “Did your mother tell you to ask
me?”
The boy admitted that this was the case. “Well, then,
tell your mother that there are no baby planes because
Southwest always pulls out on time. Your mother can
explain it to you.”
