A little boy was sitting on the footpath with a bottle of Turpentine . He was shaking it up and watching all the bubbles .

A Priest came along and asked the little boy what he had .

The little boy said, 'This is the most powerful liquid in the world; it's called Turpentine . '

The Priest said, 'No, the most powerful liquid in the world is Holy Water . If you rub it on a pregnant woman's belly, she'll pass a healthy baby . '

The little boy replied, 'If you rub turpentine on a cat's arse, he'll pass a Harley Davidson!'

'The last time the French asked for 'more proof' it came marching into Paris under a German flag . '
David Letterman

'War without France would be like . . . . . . . . . . . . . . World War II . '
Unknown

'The favorite bumper sticker in Washington D . C . right now is one that says 'First Iraq, then France . ''
Tom Brokaw

'What do you expect from a culture and a nation that exerted more of its national will fighting against Disney World and Big Macs than the Nazis?'
Dennis Miller

'It is important to remember that when it comes to the crunch, the French have always been there when they needed us . '
Alan Kent

'Somebody was telling me about the French Army rifle that was being advertised on eBay the other day --the description was, 'Never fired . Dropped once . ''
Rep . Roy Blunt, MO

'The French will only agree to go to war when we've proven we've found truffles in Iraq '

Q . What did the Mayor of Paris say to the German Army as they entered the city in WWII?
A . Table for 100,000 m'sieur?

Q . 'Do you know how many Frenchmen it takes to defend Paris?
A . It's not known, it's never been tried . '


French Ban Fireworks at Euro Disney - (AP), Paris , March 5, 2003

The French Government announced today that it is imposing a ban on the use of fireworks at Euro Disney . The decision comes the day after a nightly fireworks display at the park, located just 30 miles outside of Paris, caused the soldiers at a nearby French Army garrison to surrender to a group of Czech tourists .


Vichy France also fought for and with the Axis Powers (Germany & Italy) against the Allies, but that and their nation's surrender is a national perspective . It should not be forgotten however, that many brave Frenchmen refused to accept their nation's abject capitulation, fighting on on North Africa and via the French underground, or that French units participated in the final expulsion of the German Army from French territory in 1945 .

We won't mention Mururoa or the Rainbow Warrior .

On holidays in India recently, I saw a sign on a cab that exclaimed proudly:

"English Speaking Taxi Driver" .

I thought, what a great idea, why the f#&*k don’t we have them in New Zealand?

What Would Jesus Drive?

Most people assume WWJD is for “What would Jesus do?” But the initials really stand for “What would Jesus drive?”

One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old Plymouth because “the Bible says God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury.”

But in Psalm 83, the Almighty clearly owns a Pontiac and a Geo. The passage urges the Lord to “pursue your enemies with your Tempest and terrify them with your Storm.”

Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup trucks, because Moses’ followers are warned not to go up a mountain “until the Ram’s horn sounds a long blast.”

Some scholars insist that Jesus drove a Honda but didn’t like to talk about it. As proof, they cite a verse in St. John’s gospel where Christ tells the crowd, “For I did not speak of my own Accord.”

Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as evidenced by a Bible passage declaring, “the roar of Moses’ Triumph is heard in the hills.”

Joshua drove a Triumph sports car with a hole in its muffler: “Joshua’s Triumph was heard throughout the land.” And, following the Master’s lead, the Apostles car-pooled in a Honda: “The Apostles were in one Accord.”

1159211 2010-12-08 00:02:00 A Canadian logging company needed to hire another lumberjack. But, the first guy to apply was a short little skinny fellow, who was laughed at by the crew boss and told to leave.

"Just give me a chance," the little guy pleaded.

"Okay," the manager replied, "Grab your axe and cut down that cedar over there."

Two minutes later he was back at the boss' office, "Tree's cut. Do I get the job?"

"I don't believe it, that is so much faster than even my best lumberjack could have done it. Where did you learn to use an axe like that?" the manager inquired.

"Sahara Forest," the little guy replied.

"Don't you mean the Sahara Desert," the boss man corrected him.

"Sure, that's what they call it now."
