3 Students on the Shuttle

Duke, N.C. State, and North Carolina are sending up a two year shuttle mission with one astronaut from each school. Since it's going to be two long, lonely years up there, each may bring any form of entertainment weighing 150 pounds or less. The Dukie approaches the NASA board and asks to take his 125 lb. wife. They approve. The Wolfpack astronaut says, "I've always wanted to learn Latin. I want 100 lbs. of textbooks." The NASA board approves. The Tar Heel astronaut thinks for a second and says, "Two years... all right, I want 150 pounds of the best Durham tobacco ever made." Again, NASA okays it. Two years later, the shuttle lands and everyone is gathered outside to welcome back the astronauts. Well, it's obvious what the Dukie's been up to, he and his wife are each holding an infant. The crowd cheers. The Wolfpack astronaut steps out and makes a 10 minute speech in absolutely perfect Latin. The crowd doesn't understand a word of it, but they're impressed and they cheer again. The Tar Heel astronaut stomps out, clenches the podium until his knuckles turn white, glares at the first row and screams: "Anybody got a match?"
