ASTRONAUT'S LAST WISH

NASA planned a mission that involved three astronauts
spending two years in space. Because of the extended
duration, each was allowed to take 200 pounds of
baggage, with no restrictions.

The first astronaut decided to take along his wife, the
second decided to take along books to learn how to
speak German, while the third astronaut decided to take
along cigarettes.

Two years later, when the space shuttle landed, there
was a big crowd waiting to welcome them home.

First came the first astronaut and his wife and each of
them had a baby in their arms.

Next, out came the second astronaut speaking fluent
German.

They both gave their speeches and got a rousing
applause.

Suddenly out came the third astronaut with a cigarette in
his mouth.

He walked up to the podium and snarled to the crowd
and asked, "Anyone got a light?"
