American comedian from Seattle (sorry didn't get his name) appearing on BBC's They Think It's All Over humorous sports quiz, in response to a quip about Bush, said... "He wasn't voted president by the US, only by Florida - a state where nearly all the residents think the Dukes of Hazzard was a documentary..."

The famous Olympic skier Picabo Street, pronounced (Peek'aboo), is not just an athlete, she is also a nurse who currently works in the Intensive Care Unit (I.C.U.) of a large metropolitan hospital. She is a fine nurse, however, Picabo is not permitted to answer the telephone because too much confusion ensues when she answers the phone and says..... "Picabo, I.C.U."

INDIAN (Native American) PHILOSOPHY

   An old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a
ceremonial pipe in the company of  two U.S. government officials sent to interview him.
   
   "Chief Two Eagles," asked one official, "you have observed the
white man for 90 years.  You've seen his wars and his material wealth.  You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
   
The chief nodded in agreement.

The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your
opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"

The chief stared at the government officials for over a minute and
then calmly replied, "When white man found the land, Indians were
running it OK.  No taxes – no debt – plenty buffalo – plenty beaver – women did all the work – medicine man free – Indian man spent all day hunting and fishing and all night having sex."

Then the chief leaned back and smiled, "White man dumb enough to
think he could improve system like that."
