Joke Of The Day: World-Wide Survey

Rubber Chicken The United Nations decided to conduct a world-wide survey. So they sent a letter to the representatives of each country with the following question: “Please, with all honesty, give your opinion on the scarcity of food in the rest of the world”.

The survey was a huge failure. Why? None of the European countries knew the meaning of “scarcity”. The African nations did not know what “food” was. The Cubans were puzzled and asked for elaboration on the meaning of “opinion”.

The Argentinians were not familiar with the word “please”. The North Americans had no idea what was the so-called “rest of the world”. And the Brazilian congress is, to this day, debating what exactly is “honesty”.
