A Joke To Start Your Day: Survival On a Lost Island


Sheldon and Marlene are flying to Australia for a two week vacation to celebrate their 40th anniversary.

Four hours into the flight the captain suddenly announces over the public address system:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news.  All of our engines have stopped and we have to attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on the beach. However, the odds are that we may never be rescued and will have to live on the island for the rest of our lives".

Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the island. No one is injured. An hour later Sheldon turns to his wife and asks, "Marlene, did we pay our charity pledge check to Ohev Kessef Synagogue yet?"

"No, sweetheart," she responds "not yet".

Sheldon, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, "Marlene, did we pay our United Jewish Appeal pledge?"

"Oy, no! I'm sorry. I forgot to send the check," she says.

"One last thing, Marlene, did you remember to send a check for the Synagogue Building Fund this month?" he asks.

"Oy, forgive me, Sheldon," begged Marlene. "I didn't send that one,
either."

Sheldon grabs her and gives her the biggest hug and kiss in 40 years.
 
Marlene pulls away and asks him, " So, why did you kiss me?"
 
Sheldon answers ..... "They'll find us."
