"Englishman & American"
On a train from London to Manchester, an
American was berating the Englishman sitting
across from him in the compartment. "You
English are too stuffy. You set yourselves
apart too much. You think your stiff upper lips
make your above the rest of us. Look at me...
I'm me, I have Italian blood, French blood, a
little Indian blood, and some Swedish blood.
What do you say to that?"
The Englishman replied, "Very sporting of
your mother."

"Only In Merry Olde England"
(an actual trial)
A young woman who was several months pregnant
boarded a bus. When she noticed a young man
smiling at her, she began to feeling humiliated on
account of her condition. She changed her seat,
and he seemed more amused. She moved again
and then on her 4th move, he burst out laughing.
She had him arrested and when the case came
before the court:
This was the man's reply when asked why he acted
in such a manner.
"When the lady boarded the bus, I couldn't help
noticing she was pregnant. She sat under an
advertisement which read 'Coming Soon: The Gold
Dust Twins', then she moved under one that read
'Sloans Liniments removing Swelling.' I was even
more amused when she sat under a shaving
advertisement which read "William Stick Did The
Trick.' Then I could not control myself any longer
when, on the 4th move, she sat under an
advertisement which read 'Dunlop Rubber would
have prevented this accident.'"
He won the case!
