Dependable Porter Joke

On a cross country train, one of the passengers told the Pullman porter, "I must get off in Chicago. I'll probably be very sleepy, irritable, and may even object to getting off. Don't mind that. Throw me off the train if necessary."

The train had long since passed Chicago when the passenger woke on his own accord. He stormed down the train looking for the porter. As they almost collided between cars the porter's eyes popped really big and he said, "My goodness! How did you get back on this train?"

A guy who thinks fast and knows how to land on his feet! Excellent!

I looked at it the other way - as if the porter had thrown him off the train. It's funny, either way.

I looked at it as the porter threw someone else off the train.

Funny! That's three ways to look at it. I'm going to post this on another forum and see what people think.
