You've all heard of the Air Force's ultra-high-security ,
super-secret base in Nevada, known simply as
"Area 51?"
Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51
were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at
their "secret" base. They immediately impounded the
aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation
room.
The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got
lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run
out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background
check on the pilot and held him overnight during the
investigation.
By the next day, they were finally convinced that the
pilot really was lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up
his airplane, gave him a terrifying "you-did-not- see-a-
base" briefing, complete with threats of spending the
rest of his life in prison, told him Vegas was that-a-
way on such-and-such a heading, and sent him on his
way.
The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the
same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MPs
surrounded the plane... only this time there were two
people in the plane.
The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you
want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to
tell her where I was last night!"
