Hi, Everyone: 

         You'd just have to know that someone would come up with 
the inevitable Newfie joke to add some humour to the situation. 

         Thanks to John Olafson, over in Prince George BC, for forwarding 
this one. 

Regards.

------------ 


A large group of Taliban soldiers are moving down a road when they 
hear a voice call from behind a sand-dune.  "One Newfie soldier is 
better than ten Taliban." 

The Taliban commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over 
the dune, where upon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a 
few minutes, then....... silence. 

The voice then calls out: "One Newfie soldier is better than one 
hundred Taliban." 

Furious, the Taliban commander sends his next best 100 troops over 
the dune and instantly a huge gunfight commences. After 10 minutes 
of battle, again....... silence. 

The Newfie voice calls out again: "One Newfie soldier is better than 
one thousand Taliban." 

The enraged Taliban Commander musters one thousand fighters and sends 
them across the dune. Cannon, rocket and machine gun fire ring out 
as a huge battle is fought. Then....... silence. 

Eventually one wounded Taliban fighter crawls back over the dune 
and with his dying words tells his commander: "Don't send any more 
men, its a trap.  There's two of them."
