Great jokes often are great parables, which is why they survive the years. This one has been around quite a while, in different guises.
Paddy and Mick flew to Canada on a hunting trip. They chartered a small plane to take them into the Rockies for a week of hunting moose.
They managed to bag six moose. As they were loading the plane to return, the pilot said the plane could take only four moose.
The two lads objected strongly. "Last year we shot six. The pilot let us take them all and he had the same plane as yours."
Reluctantly, the pilot gave in and all six were loaded. The plane took off.
However, while attempting to cross some mountains even on full power the little plane couldn't handle the load and went down.
Somehow, surrounded by the moose bodies, only Paddy and Mick survived the crash.
After climbing out of the wreckage, Paddy asks Mick, "Any idea where we are, lad?"
Mick replied, "I think we're pretty close to where we crashed last year."

Paddy-n-Mick, ya'll.

mick and pat get offered a job mixing cement in abudabi so they flu out and are driven into the desert a hundred miles with nothing but sand dunes.
eventually they get to a small building site in the middle of the desert
Mick turns to pat
"what you think Pat?"
"Dunno about you" he sez "but I'm getting out of here before the cement arrives"
