THE CASE OF THE DEFECTIVE POSTAGE STAMPA new version of a familiar theme
The current President of the Philippines is arguably a crook. My sister sent me the following joke and I just had to share it. The joke is a version of a familiar theme.
PhilPost, the Philippine postal service, recently issued a stamp with a picture of President Arroyo. Her full name is Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. The stamp was captioned “Gloria Forever.”
There was a problem however. The stamp would not stick to envelopes. This reportedly enraged the President who demanded a full investigation.
After a month of testing and spending 100 million pesos, the special Presidential commission presented their findings:
- The stamp was in perfect condition.
- There was nothing wrong with the adhesive.
- People were just spitting on the wrong side.
