A few laughs

Only in… New Zealand?
A couple from Wellington is upset with a McDonald's restaurant after taking their granddaughter in for a Happy Meal. Grandmother Suzanne Hatch checked the contents and found the toy packed inside was a condom. "I was pretty horrified really," said her husband, Rowan Hatch. "It would be difficult to explain, she's only seven." The couple of course removed the item before handing the meal over. A McDonald's spokeswoman said the condom was meant for a different promotion and was "somehow" accidentally included in the child's meal. (Wellington Dominion Post)

...A different promotion? That must be the new adult menu item, the Very Happy Meal.


Cheeky granny
An elderly woman went into the doctor’s office. When the doctor asked why she was there, she replied, "I’d like to have some birth control pills." Taken aback, the doctor thought for a minute and then said, "Excuse me, Mrs. Smith, but you’re 75 years old. What possible use could you have for birth control pills?" The woman responded, "They help me sleep better." The doctor thought some more and continued, "How in the world do birth control pills help you to sleep?" The woman said, "I put them in my granddaughter’s orange juice and I sleep better at night."


Three Brazilian soldiers
Donald Rumsfeld briefed the President this morning. He told Bush that Three Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq. To everyone’s amazement, all the colour ran from Bush’s face, then he collapsed onto his desk, head in his hands, visibly shaken, almost whimpering. Finally he composed himself and asked Rumsfeld, “Just how many is a brazillion?”
