Now here's the story of a lady and her beloved pet duck, the duck was like a child to her, she loved it so much. One day she received a wedding invitation from a friend of her's that lived out of state; so after making agreements, the airport allowed her to have the duck on the plane with her as long as she kept a steady eye and hand on it. Unfortunately, across the aisle from him was a man smoking a huge cigar; the poor woman had lost a lung in the past and breathing was a difficult thing to do, so she asked him politely "excuse me sir, but I hate to seem like a bother, but I have trouble breathing, so would you mind putting out your cigar please?" the man replied coldly "if you're going to keep that duck on this plane, then I'm going to keep smoking this cigar!" It became an incident that lured the attention of a couple of stewardesses who came to help: the man simply would not put out his cigar until something was done about that duck; by this time the woman was desperate, she was about to black out, the stewardesses convinced her that a duck can fly and that her life was more important that that of a duck, so she sadly agreed and the duck and the cigar were tossed out the door. The woman was devasted, she had lost he faithful pet duck... her baby... and she cried for the rest of the trip. An hour later the plane was arriving at the airport, but something awkward about the plane caught everyone's attention: they were staring and pointing at the plane, but the captains, stewardesses, even the flight attendants couldn't figure out why people were pointing and staring at their plane. Once the plane had come to a landing and everyone got off board, their suspicions were confirmed: there sitting on the tail of the plane was the duck, and guess what was in the duck's mouth?
