Two bored casino dealers are waiting at a craps table. A very attractive lady comes in and wants to bet twenty thousand dollars on a single roll of the dice. She says, "I hope you don't mind, but I feel a lot luckier when I'm bottomless." With that she strips naked from the waist down, and rolls the dice while yelling, "Momma needs a new pair of panties!" She then begins jumping up and down and hugging each of the dealers. "YES! - I WIN! I WIN!" With that she picks up her money and clothes and quickly leaves. The dealers just stare at each other dumbfounded. Finally one of them asks, "What did she roll anyway?" The other answers, "I dunno, I thought YOU were watching!"

The WOE. Someone who knows tells a story about a certain WOE, (who shall of course remain nameless) who was at an also unnamed Sqn many years ago and was asked by the EngO how a particular engine change was going. The WOE walked out to the tarmac to annoy the sumpies who were trying to get the aircraft serviceable again as quickly as they could. The aircraft was a browny coloured thing with two engines, bit like the one below.

Seems this WOE had a habit of always annoying blokes on the line, and this day he demanded to know how long before the aircraft could fly again. "Won’t be long Sir" he was told, "We’re just hooking up the prop jettison cable now."

Seems the WOE reported this to the EngO before he thought about what he had just been told. We hate to think what extra duties the poor old sumpies had to perform.
