From Stan Kegel:
Two cadets at an Arizona Air force academy were bragging in their off
time about what good hunters they were.
Well, it seems that they decided to have a contest, and whoever won the
contest would be accounted the better hunter. To make the things a
little more interesting, they each put up a pint of the best whiskey
they could find.
There had been rumors that a lion had escaped the local zoo and was
roaming around loose in the desert that surrounded the academy. The
contest was that whoever bagged the lion and brought it back to base was
the winner.
The first cadet borrowed a large hunting rifle and set about hunting
down the lion in the conventional manner.
The second cadet, who was perhaps a bit more inventive than his
counterpart, secured a training jet from the local commander, loaded the
wing guns with live ammunition and headed out over the dessert in search
of the lion.
It wasn't long before he spotted it, and, from the safety of the plane,
killed it. He took the plane down, loaded the lion's body into the
copilot's seat, and headed back to base, where he promptly downed both
bottles.
Which proves that a strafed lion is the shortest distance between two
pints.

Buffalo told this one:
A salesman, engineer, and a technician are driving just outside of town
when they get a flat tire. The three get out of the car and scratch
their heads.
The salesman says,
"Maybe I should walk into town and get us a new tire. I'm sure that I
can bargain with the man at the parts store and get us a great deal."
The engineer stops him, saying,
"No, before you do that, we'll have to do some computations; figuring
the grade of the road, the asphalt temperture, and the average rate of
speed we will be travelling, to know what kind of tire you should buy."
The technician just laughs and shakes his head...
"No, no, no! What's wrong with you guys? We have a spare tire right in
the trunk -- now all we have to do is start swapping tires until we find
the flat one."
