Would you believe..... (a little humor)

Here's another one. It's about the Canadian Prime Minister, Jean Chretien, but you Americans could change it to George Bush and it wouldn't make any difference or be any less funny. OK, here it goes: <br /> <br />Chretien is visiting an elementary school and stops in one of the classrooms. On the board the word "tragedy" is written. <br /> <br />"So, you kids know what that means, don't you?" Chretien asks. <br /> <br />"Oh, I do," one little boy says. "Say if there was this plane that was carrying medicine that was needed to help some people and it crashed. That would be a tragedy." <br /> <br />"No, no, that would be an accident," Chretien says. "Does anybody else think they know what it is?" <br /> <br />Another kid says, "if there was a ship that was carrying lots of people and it hit an iceberg and they all died. That would be a tragedy." <br /> <br />"No, that would be a great loss," Chretien says. <br /> <br />Another kid has been thinking about this and put his hand up. "I know what it is," he says. "If someone went and dropped a bomb on Parliament Hill and it killed the Prime Minister and all the senators and cabinet ministers, that would be a tragedy." <br /> <br />"Why yes," Chretien exclaims. "How come you're so smart?" <br /> <br />"Well," the kid says, "it couldn't have been an accident and it certainly wouldn't be a great loss!"
