Life is Not funny!
Here's some salutary reading from UN friends.
Last month, the UN conducted a worldwide survey. The only question
asked was: "Would you please give your honest opinion about
solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

The survey was a HUGE failure.
In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
And in the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
