Subject: Dilemma

You are the President of the United States and NASA tells you that a large meteor is heading straight for Earth and it will strike France at 2:00 am tomorrow morning.

France calls and begs you to use all your available arsenal to save them.

You know that by doing this it will take away from the buildup in the Middle East and hurt the war against terrorism. If you don't, France is toast.

Here is your dilemma.

Do you stay up and watch it live, or tape it and watch it in the morning........

I like the "French Toast" allusion.

Elas, pauvre France. Elle ne comprenent les sentiment de la monde, mais elle n'a pas un concerne. Elle a France.(Alas, poor France. She does not understand the feelings of the world, but she doesn't care. She is France.)

Yeah, the glory years are long gone. Politically, France always seems on the wrong side - but then a 20+% population of Arabs might have changed American policy, too.

But for the bread alone, France would be worth saving. Then there's the rest of the food and then again the wine. And despite a cuisine that would appear to be a dietary disaster, few in France are overweight - unlike America.

And for my money, Paris is still the best city in the world - and I'm sitting in New York - and I've been to most American, Canadian, and European cities. Lots of great places, but then there is Paris. And they are not ruder there than in NYC - but surprisingly the cabbies speak more English than NYC.

Still, funny joke.
