Don't hate me because I'm Trinidadian.

This seems to be circulating among Trinidadian mail accounts. I'm usually militantly anti-spam, funny or not, but I had to make an exception. I have no idea who the author is, but here it is. Usually I pride myself inposting original material since I am an original myself - an original with extremely large mammories, but this anonymous author will have to stand in for me today.

After digging to a depth of 100 meters last year, Russian scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago.

So, not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists dug
200 metres and headlines in the US papers read: "US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have concluded that their ancestors already had
advanced high-tech digital telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians."

One week later, the Trinbagonian newspapers reported the following: "After digging as deep as 500 metres, Trini scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using wireless technology."

I don't know if this is funny to anyone else but a Trinidadian - I mean the Americans are always claim to be the peole of the proud and free and crispy crispy fries, but we are the Proud and Proud, always thinking that we are best. Except we're not.



Oh, I forgot, HAHA. Yes we are.

And by "we" I mean me. Scroll up again, why don't you.
