A man goes skydiving for the first time. After listening to the instructor
for what seems like days, he is ready to go. Excited, he jumps out of the
airplane. After a bit, he pulls the ripcord. Nothing happens. He tries
again. Still nothing. He starts to panic, but remembers his back-up chute.
He pulls that cord. Nothing happens. He frantically begins pulling both
cords, but to no avail. Suddenly, he looks down and he can't believe his
eyes. Another man is in the air with him, but this guy is going *up*! Just
as the other guy passes by, the skydiver -- by this time scared out of his
wits -- yells, "Hey, do you know anything about skydiving?" The other guy
yells back, "No! Do you know anything about gas stoves?"
