A man walks into a bar, sits down and orders a triple martini.
The bartender says "What a coincidence, The only other
person at the bar is that beautiful woman at the other end.
She is also drinking triple martinis".
After a few sips of his drink, the man walks up to the woman
and says, "Isn't it a coincidence that we are both having the
same drink".
She replies "Yes! I am here because I am celebrating. After
20 years of trying I am finally pregnant!"
"What a coincidence" the man replied. "I am also celebrating.
After years of experimenting, I have invented a multicolored
chicken."
At this, the woman asked "How did you ever accomplish
that!?".
"I had to try a lot of different noodles" he said.
The woman replied "What a coincidence!!!!"
-------------------------------------------
A WWII soldier, had been on the front lines in Europe for 3 months,
when he was finally given a week of R&R. He caught a supply boat to a base
in southern England, then caught a train to London. The train was
extremely crowded and he could not find a seat.
He was dead on his feet and walked the length of the train looking for any
place to sit down. Finally, he found a compartment with seats facing each
other; there was room for 2 people on each seat. On one side sat a proper
looking older British lady, with a small dog sitting in the empty seat
beside her.
"Could I please sit in that seat?" he asked. The lady was insulted: "You
Yanks are so rude", she said. "Can't you see my dog is sitting there?"
He walked through the train again and still could not find a seat. He
found himself back at the compartment.
"Lady, I love dogs - have a couple back home - so I would be glad to hold
your dog in my lap, if I can sit down."
The lady replied, "You Yanks are not only rude, you are arrogant." He
leaned against the wall for a time, but was so tired he finally said:
"Lady, I've been on the front lines in Europe for three months with not a
decent rest for all that time; so could I please sit there and hold your
dog?"
The lady replied "You Yanks are not only rude and arrogant, you are also
obnoxious."
With that comment, the soldier calmly picked up the dog, threw it out the
window and sat down. The lady was speechless.
An older, neatly dressed Englishman sitting across on the other seat spoke
up, "Young man, I do not know if all you Yanks fit the lady's description
or not. But I do know that you Yanks do a lot of things wrong. You drive
on the wrong side of the road, you hold your fork in the wrong hand and now
you have just thrown the wrong squeak out of the window."
