CHICAGO (Just Laugh) - Just moments before he was to board his flight to Newark International in New Jersey, David Meanson, a lucky bastard from Rockford, suddenly took a detour to the men's restroom.

"The burger I ate took a negative effect on me. Next thing I knew, I had a bad case of diarrhea," said Meanson, whose flight to Newark crashed moments after takeoff.

It was a twist of fate that normally would end with a bad situation, having diarrhea and all. But this is certainly a decent tradeoff than death, according to Leon Holey, spokesperson for O'Hare airport.

Although 87 passengers died in the crash, there was one person deemed a hero. "I owe Jose, the cook who made my burger, my life. If it wasn't for him, I would have plunged to my death," commented Meanson.

Meanson agreed to treat Jose to dinner after his diarrhea ends. However, a burger at Jose's restaurant is out of the question.

As for the tragedy at O'Hare, it's looked at in a positive light. "Sure we lost 87 passengers. But we saved one, thanks to an undercooked burger," said Holey, who is praying this logic settles future fliers with O'Hare airport.
