The first replied, "Cause, if dat plane goes down and I'm out dare laying butt-up in a conefield, dey gonna find me first."

The second lady said, "Well, I'm a-gonna wear me some flooresant orange panties."

"Why you gonna wear dem?" the others asked.

The second lady answered, "Cause if dis hareplane is goin' down and I'm floating butt-up in the oshun, dey can see me first."

The third old lady says, "Well, I'm not going to wear any panties....."

"WHAT?....... No panties?" the others asked in disbelief.

"Dat's right, you heard me. I'm not wearing any panties," the third lady said, "cause if dis plane goes down, honey dey always look for da black box first"
