Disclaimer: No, this isn't another Fwd: kind of thing trashing the boards. I have never seen this, and I think it deserves it's own thread. 
"Buttons" ........
Mullah Mohammed Husan Akhund, the deputy Taliban leader from
Afghanistan,
and President George W. Bush agree to meet in Kabul for a first round
of
talks in the Anti-Terrorism peace process.
When George W. sits down, he notices three buttons on the arm of
Akhund's
chair. The two begin talking.
After about five minutes Akhund presses the first button. A boxing
glove
springs out of a box on the desk and punches G. W. right in the face.
Annoyed, Bush carries on talking as Akhund laughs.
A few minutes later the second button is pressed. This time a big boot
comes
out and kicks George W. in the shin. Again Akhund laughs loudly, and
again
George carries on talking, trying to keep focused on peace.
But when Akhund pushes the third button and another big boot comes out
and
kicks George square in his privates, he's
finally had enough! "I'm Headin' Back Home!" he calmly tells the
laughing
Afghan. "We will finish these talks in Washington, in two weeks!"
A fortnight passes and Akhund flies to the United States for the second
round of talks. As the two men sit down, Akhund notices three buttons
on
President Bush's chair arm and prepares himself for the Texan's
retaliation.
They begin talking and George W. presses the first button. Akhund ducks
-
but nothing happens. George snickers but they continue talking.
A few minutes later George presses the second button. Akhund jumps up
to get
out of the way - but again nothing happens. However, Bush roars with
laughter.
Feeling foolish, Akhund again sits down and crosses his legs, preparing
for
the worst. George W. smiles when he presses the third button. Akhund
jumps
up frantically and shields his privates with his hands - but again,
nothing
happens. Bush remains seated, and rocks with laughter.
"Forget This," screams Akhund. "I'm going back to Afghanistan!!"
George W. Bush stands and with a look of "resolve" on his face says,
"What Afghanistan??"
