Examples of use word PA Example 1Overheard on an American Airlines flight into
Amarillo, Texas, on a particularly windy and bumpy day. During the

extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant came on the
PA (synonyms of word PA above) and
announced,
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo. Please remain
in your seats
with your seatbelts fastened while the Captain taxis
what's left of our
airplane to the gate!"

Arizona on a clear day,
the co-pilot was providing his passengers with
a running commentary
about landmarks over the
PA (synonyms of word PA above)
system.
"Coming up on the right, you can see the Meteor Crater, which is a
major tourist attraction in northern Arizona. It was formed when a lump of
nickel and iron, roughly 150 feet in diameter and weighing 300,000
tons, struck the earth at about 40,000 miles an hour, scattering
white-hot
debris for miles in every direction. The hole measures
nearly a mile
across and is 570 feet deep."
From the cabin, a
passenger was heard to exclaim, "Wow! It just missed
the highway!"

with EasyJet back in 1997 the
pilot made what can only be describes as
an extremely heavy landing
at Luton. It was very early in the morning
and a number of
passenger around me looked quite alarmed as, apart
from the noise, a number
of overhead lockers dropped open and several
items of carry-on
luggage were launched down the aisle.
After slowing up, the aircraft
turned off the runway and turned towards
the stand and over the
PA (synonyms of word PA above)
came "Good morning ladies gentlemen, this is
Captain Smith, welcome
to Luton...and if any of you were asleep...I bet
you're not
now!"

old mountain man in Arkansas was sick
and bedridden. He had not been
outdoors for a few weeks and had a
sharp craving for a meal of wild
squirrel. He summoned his
half-idiot son into the room and instructed him to
go squirrel hunting and
bring him back a squirrel or two. He also told
his son to be very
careful not to shoot the squirrel in the head as he
would need its
brains later to "tan" the squirrel's pelt. (Tanning a
skin using the
animal's brains is a common practice in certain areas,
it
generally takes about one brain to tan one skin).
The idiot son spent
most of the day searching the woods for tree
squirrels, but was not
having any luck. Finally, high up in a sweet-gum tree,
he spotted a
squirrel's head sticking out from a hole. He remembered
his Pa's
admonitions to save the brains. After deciding he may not have
another chance, he shot it in the head, thus ruining the brains.
r
His sick
PA (synonyms of word PA above) was upset, "I can't tan that skin without no brains!"
he
said, "Now what am I a gonna do?" Thinking quickly, he
remembered
that up on the river there were 3 fisheries biologists doing some
field
work.
"Well, we're only tanning one squirrel skin,
walk up the river and
shoot one of them dang fish biologists and
I'll use his brains to tan
the skin," he told the son. The son did as
he was told and soon returned
with the prize. As it turned out, the
brain wasn't large enough and
the boy was upset as he would have
to make another trip to harvest the
other two biologist's
brains.
"Look on the bright side, boy", the old man told him, "Two more
ought to be just enough. We'd have been in real trouble if they was
BOTANISTS!"
