Two (insert ethic group of choice here) guys were coming into LAX when the pilot comes on and says calmly:
"Sorry folks, but we've lost our number 4 engine and we'll be circling the airport for an extra 15 minutes"

The pair look at each other and shrug it off.

Couple minutes later the pilot comes on and says calmly:
"Sorry folks, but we've lost our number 2 engine and we'll be circling the airport for an extra 30 minutes"

The guys look at each other and shrug it off, still not too worried.

Few more minutes and the pilot comes on and not quite as calmly says:
"Sorry folks, but we've lost our number 1 engine and we'll be circling the airport for an extra 45 minutes"

The one guy looks at the other and says, "Damn, if that number 3 engine goes, we'll be up here all day!"
