The old hypothetical, “What would you bring if you were stranded on a desert island?” has been around for ages.
But for one couple, the imaginary situation became a reality. When the couple’s plane crashed onto a deserted island, the husband had an interesting answer to this age-old question.
Funny and Humorous shared this silly story about how one man reached an unusual conclusion.
Here’s how it happened.
An elderly couple was flying to Hawaii for a two-week vacation to celebrate their 50th anniversary.
Suddenly, over the public address system, the captain announces, “Ladies and gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines have ceased functioning and we will 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.
An hour later, the husband turns to his wife and asks, “Honey, did we pay the car bill this month?”
“No, sweetheart,” she responds.
Sill shaken from the crash landing, he then asks, “Did we pay our credit card bill yet?”
“Oh no! I’m sorry. I forgot to send the check,” she says.
“One last thing, did you remember to pay the medical bill for the hospital visit last month?” he asks.
“Oh, forgive me, sweetheart,” begged the wife. “I didn’t send that one, either.”
The husband grabs her and gives her the biggest hug in 50 years. She pulls away and asks him,
“What was the hug for?”
The husband answers, “They’ll find us!”
Haha!
Now, who else can relate to that?
Given their intensity, it seems like these pesky bill collectors would seriously go to the extent of sending out a search party to collect an overdue car payment!
This might be the one situation where their persistence could come in handy.
