Gordon Brown goes on a state visit to Israel . While he is on a tour of
Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and passes away. The undertaker
tells the British Diplomats accompanying him, 'You can have him shipped
home for £5,000,000, or you can bury him here, in the Holy Land, for
just £100.'
The British Diplomats go into a corner and discuss for a minute. They
come back to the undertaker and tell him they want Gordon shipped home.
The undertaker is puzzled and asks, 'Why would you spend £5,000,000 to
ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you
would spend only £100? With the money you save you could help pay back
some of the deficit, help pay for the Olympic Games or help the
elderly'.
The British Diplomats replied, 'Long ago a man died here, was buried
here, and three days later he rose from the dead. We just can't take
that chance.'
When asked about Western Civilisation, Ghandi said 'that would be a good idea'...
