There are. The joke was sent to me by a friend via e-mail. I admit its a bit average but why fuss about it. I felt like sharing it. Plus, it was a good way to introduce another jab at the French Failure. A bigger and better joke.

Copy of another e-mail I just receive for the humorless crowd that so infests this forum. Stay gloomy.

__________________________________________________ ______

As many are aware, the French government recently announced a rise in its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The normal level is "General Arrogance," and the only two higher levels in France are "Surrender" and "Collaborate." The rise was precipitated by a recent
fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country's military capability.

It's not only the French that are on a heightened level of alert. Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain:
"Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides."


The Germans also increased their alert state from "Disdain" to "Dress in Uniform and
Sing Marching Songs." They have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose."

Seeing this reaction in continental Europe, the Americans have gone from "Isolationism" to "Find Another Oil-rich Nation for Regime Change." Their remaining higher alert states are "Attack Random
Countries (Ideally Those Without Any Credible Military)" and "Beg the British for Help."

The British are also feeling the pinch in relation to recent bombings and have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940, when tea supplies all but ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was during the Great Fire of 1666.
