John: Now, that's an interesting insight. Eric,
where to we go with it?
Heard this joke in Brazil. I've posted it before
but it seems appropriate here.
It's winter in Ilhéus and two Brazilian guys are
sitting on a dune above the beach watching the
ocean. A cold wind is blowing and the sky is
getting dark early. They see three people--a
Frenchman, an American, and a Brazilian--walking
along the beach at the edge of the frigid water.
One of the guys on the dune says, "I bet 50 Reais
I can make all three jump in the water even though
it's cold." His friend agrees. So they guy jogs
down the shore, greets the three men, and whispers
something to each of them. One after the other,
the men wade into the winter surf and plunge
underwater.
"Pay up," says the guy to his friend.
"But what did you say?"
