A Frenchman, An Englishman And A New Yorker

A Frenchman, an Englishman and a New Yorker were captured by a fierce tribe. The chief comes to them and says, "The bad news is that now that we've caught you, we're going to kill you and then use your skins to build a canoe. The good news is that you get to choose how you die."

The Frenchman says, "I take ze poison."

The chief gives him some poison and the Frenchman says, "Vive la France !" and drinks it down.

The Englishman says, "A pistol for me please."

The chief gives him a pistol, he points it at his head while saying, "God save the Queen!" and pulls the trigger.

The New Yorker says, "Gimme a fork."

The chief is puzzled, but he shrugs and hands him a fork. The New Yorker takes it and starts jabbing himself all over; the stomach, the sides, the chest, everywhere. There's blood gushing out all over... it's horrible!

The chief is appalled, and screams, "What are you doing?"

The New Yorker looks at the chief and says, "So much for your canoe..."
