The train was quite crowded, so the U. S.
Marine walked theentire length looking for a seat, but the only seat leftwas taken by a well-dressed, middle-aged, French woman'spoodle.
The war-weary Marine asked, "Ma'am, may I have that seat?"The French woman just sniffed and said to no one inparticular,"Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat."The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seatleft was under that dog."Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very tired."She snorted, "Not only are you Americans rude, you are alsoarrogant!"This time the Marine didn't say a word, he just picked upthe little dog, tossed it out the train window, and satdown.The woman shrieked, "Someone must defend my honor! Put thisAmerican in his place!"An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up,"Sir, you Americans often seem to have a penchant for doingthe wrong thing.
You hold the fork in the wrong hand. Youdrive your autos on the wrong side of the road.And now, sir, you've thrown the wrong bitch out the window |
