Never Too Old To Learn

You think you have lived to be 80 and know who you are, then along comes someone and blows it all to hell!

An old Marine Pilot sat down at Starbucks, still wearing his old USMC flight suit and leather jacket and ordered a cup of coffee. As he sat sipping, a young woman sat down next to him.

She turned to the pilot and asked, "Are you a real pilot?"
  ~  
He replied, 'Well, I've spent my whole life flying planes, first Stearmans, then the early Grummans. Flew a Wildcat and Corsair in WWII, and later in the Korean conflict, Banshees and Cougars. I've taught hundreds of people to fly and given rides to hundreds more, so I guess I am a pilot. And you, what are you?

She said, 'I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about naked women. When I get up in the morning I think about naked women. When I shower, I think about naked women. When I watch TV, I think about naked women. It seems everything makes me think of naked women.'
 ~ 
The two sat sipping in silence.
 ~ 
A little while later, a young man sat down on the other side of the old pilot and asked, "Are you a real pilot?"
 ~ 
He replied, 'I always thought I was, but I just found out I'm a lesbian.'

Reminds me of the untruth of the statement, "You become that which you think about the most." If that were so, by the time I was 19 I would have been a girl.
