George Bush met The Queen, and he turns round and says: "As I'm the
President, I'm thinking of changing how the country is referred to, and
I'm thinking that it should be a Kingdom"

The Queen replies "I'm sorry Mr Bush, but to be a Kingdom, you have to
have a King in charge - and you're not a King."

George Bush thought a while and then said: "How about a Principality
then?",

To which the Queen replied "Again, to be a Principality you have to be a
Prince - and you're not a Prince, Mr Bush".

Bush thought long and hard and came up with "How about an Empire then?"

The Queen, getting a little annoyed by now, replies "Sorry again, Mr Bush,
but to be an Empire you must have an Emperor in charge - and you are not
an Emperor."

Before George Bush could utter another word, The Queen said: "I think
you're doing quite nicely as a Country".

LOL, good one!

ROTFLMAO

The best joke on IW in a while [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img]

I keep telling it to people and they don't get it. :rolleyes: And, when they don't, it's a bit embarrasing to explain.

OK - I'll admit it. I don't get it - care to explain?

If a Kingdom needs a King
A Principality needs a prince
and an empire needs an emperor
What does a country need?

If a Kingdom needs a King
A Principality needs a prince
and an empire needs an emperor
What does a country need? </font>[/QUOTE]A count? A countryman?? :confused:

*thud* <---- the sound of me hitting the language barrier [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It ain't count. Think of how "country" sounds, not how it's spelled. ;)

We're getting in a bit deep now - I'll PM you

And here I thought the Queen was more polite then that! [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img]

Got your PM Donut ........aha

(I'm sorry - I guess a joke that has to be explained just isn't funny)

ROTFLMAO!!! [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img]

As non-native english speaker, I couldn't get the joke, right until Timber posted that ˝sounds˝ remark. I guess my english ain't that bad after all.

Cut out the "eater" and you have it right. And put that in invisible text if you're brave enough to leave it there in the first instance.

Stares at thread like a dog that has just been shown a cardtrick... That language barrier is quiet a thoughy... [img]smile.gif[/img] Either its very late or I'm dumb as a rock (no comments please).

Anyone want to pm me

Took the "eaters" comment before it finally clicked. Hehe.
