During a surgeon's conference in Harare, Zimbabwe, three of the surgeons
go out for a drink one evening. The first is American, the second
English and the third Zimbabwean.
They start boasting about their
surgical abilities. The American says, "Two years ago a man fell into a giant
meat mixer, and all that was left of him was his leg. We took him into our lab,
created another artificial leg, arms, a body, head, everything. Six months later
he went back to work and he was so efficient, he put three peopple out of work!"
"That's nothing", says the English surgeon. "A while back a worker fell
into a nuclear reactor. All that was left was his right hand. So we built on an
arm, a body, legs, a head,everything. When he wentback to work 6 months later,
he was so efficient he put 10 people out of work."
Finally, the
Zimbabwean Surgeon looks at his colleagues. " You guys are just amateurs. 20
years ago I was walking down the street and I smelled a fart. I caught it in a
jar and took it back to the lab. There, we built an arsehole around it, a torso,
and finally a complete body. We called him Robert Mugabe, and he's put the whole
bloody country out of work!"
