>
> "Well Archie," Barack replied, "This is indeed important news ! How big is your army?"
>
> "Right now," said Archie, after a moments calculation "there is myself, me cousin Harold, me next-door-neighbor Mick, and the whole dart team from the pub. That makes eight!"
>
> Barack paused. "I must tell you Archie that I have one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."
>
> "Wow," said Archie. "I'll have at call ya back!"
>
> Sure enough, the next day, Archie called again. " Mr. Obama, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some infantry equipment!"
>
> "And what equipment would that be Archie?" Barack asked.
>
> "Well sir, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Harry 's farm tractor."

> President Obama sighed. "I must tell you Archie, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armored personnel carriers. Also I've increased my army to one and a half million since we last spoke."
>
> "Lord above", said Archie, "I'll be getting back to ya."

>
> Sure enough, Archie called again the next day. "President Obama! I am sorry to have to tell you dat we have had to call off dis 'ere war."
>
> "I'm sorry to hear that" said Barack . "Why the sudden change of heart?"
>
> Well, sir," said Archie, "we've all sat ourselves down and had a long chat over a bunch of pints, and come to realize dat dere's no way we can feed two million prisoners.."

Thanks for the joke PhotoNoob and keep in mind that along with feeding those 2 million prisoners you Canadiens would also be responsible for feeding, educating and providing medical assistance to 12 million or so illegal aliens. So maybe losing a quick war with you good folks up north would not be such a bad idea. :mrgreen:

It would be worth being in a Newfie prison. The Newfies' hospitality is legendary, and the beer is to die for.

I may be traveling to Newfoundland next spring or summer. Hopefully, I won't be tossed into prison but I will try the beer. :-)

Don't be surprised if you end up being invited into a Newfie's home after having a beer in a pub with him. Go in summer, the waters around Nfld are very cold in Spring (icebergs), so lots of fog and chilly weather.
