A group of seasoned climbers are sitting aboard a train chatting about their upcoming climb and gear when a group of younger climbers pile into the car, bragging about their latest rad on-sight and the such. At the end of the car the conductor appears and begins to collect tickets from the passengers. All of the younger climbers gather their tickets. One of the seasoned climbers asks, "Who has the ticket this time?" Another speaks up, "I have it." One of the youngin's speaks up, "You guys only have one ticket out of all of you? You're screwed!" The seasoned climbers just grin to themselves, stand up and then they all pile into the bathroom. A few minutes later the conductor knocks on the bathroom door, "Ticket please" and a ticket slides out from under the door. The conductor picks it up and goes on his way. A few minutes later all the climbers return to their seats and flash big smiles at the younger group. A few days later the seasoned climbers are on a train returning from their trip when the same group of kids sits down beside them. At the end of the car they hear the conductor. One of the kids says, "I have the ticket" and shows a big smile to the wiser group. One of the experienced asks his group, "Does anyone have a ticket?" and the rest simply shake their heads. One of the younger climbers says, "Ha! Now you're really screwed!" and then the younger group all head to the bathroom. One of the seasoned climbers gets out of his seat, knocks on the bathroom door... "Ticket please."
