Subject: Fwd: Sad truth! FYI!!!!
The federal government is sending each and every one of us a $600 rebate check. If we spend it at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China. If we spend it on gasoline, the money will go to the Arabs. If we purchase a computer it will go to India. If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. If we purchase a good car, it will go to Japan. If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan?
However, none of it will help the American economy!
The only way to keep the money here at home is to spend it on prostitutes, weed, beer and tattoos since these are the only products still produced in the USA .
Thank you for your help, pass this one, and please support the US..."A man can't ride your back unless it's bent."
~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

A fat lady rode the bus to work every day but this day she had an unusually large build-up of gas. She wasn't sure what to do as the bus was quite crowded. Then she remembered that the bus would soon cross some railroad tracks that make it rattle and makes lots of noise. Maybe she can pass this gas without anyone knowing.
Unfortunately, last night the maintenance crew tightened all the loose bolts, smoothing out the crossing. At the tracks, she raised up on one cheek and let rip a long, loud, juicy one. But today the bus made not a sound -- just her. You could have heard a pin drop. "Maybe if I act natural, no one will figure out it was me," she thought.
She casually asked the man sitting across the aisle from her, "Excuse me, sir. Do you have a transfer?" He responded politely, "No, I don't, but the next tree we pass, I'll try to grab you a handful of leaves!"

Look at all the pretty lights on the buildings! Millions of colors! Don't waste your time looking at traffic lights; they only come in 3 colors.
Also, don't waste your time looking at the road. There's much more interesting things elsewhere. It's everyone else's job to look out for you.
Whatever you do, don't tap that accelerator. Keeping traffic slow is your gift to your hosts.
It is imperative that you turn onto the road as soon as possible regardless of who you have to cut off to do so. However, once on the road, there is no real hurry. Take your time. That guy you cut off will be happy to slow down.
The "fast lane." Ever wonder why it's called that? Me either.
If you drive a Winnebago, be sure to only drive on single lane highways with extensive no passing zones. If people can pass you and keep traffic flowing, it defeats the whole purpose of driving a Winnebago!
Whatever you do, don't look in your mirrors! Traffic might be piling up behind you and you wouldn't want that on your conscience!
Be sure to always slow down to a near stop to look at the twisted vehicles and bloody puddles of the innocent locals who have had "encounters" with driving tourists.
If you are pulled over, be sure to toss clichés and lame jokes about the mob, prostitution, or the weather to the cop. He's never heard that one before. Trust me.
And remember, when you are lost, do not stop to find out where you are. Simply slow to 1/3 of the speed limit and weave in and out of lanes haphazardly. This always gets you where you want to be.
Always be talking on a cell phone. Your techno-savvy impresses the locals and they will stare in worshipful awe as you run stop lights and narrowly miss pedestrians.
Stop signs don't really mean "stop." They mean "slow down just a tad and if you are feeling generous, perhaps glance to the side to make sure that guy you were supposed to yield to isn't going to hit you."
Feel free to stop in the middle of the road to take photos. The locals will be touched at how sentimental you are about their home.
Remember, you are on vacation so school speed zones don't apply to you.

WHERE DID THE WHITE MAN GO WRONG? Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official,'You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. 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 official for over a minute and then calmly replied.
'When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver,clean water.
Women did all the work, Medicine man free.
Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex.'
Then the chief leaned back and smiled.'Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that.'
