The Captain gets on the loud-speaker and shouts, “Ahoy, small craft.
Where are you headed?”
One of the Mexicans puts down his oar, stands up, and shouts, “We
are invading the United States of America to reclaim the territory
taken by the U.S. during the 1800’s.”
The entire crew on the destroyer doubles over in laughter. When the
Captain finally catches his breath, he gets back on the loud-speaker
and asks, “Just the four of you?”
The same Mexican stands up again and shouts, “No, we’re the last four.
The other 26 million are already there!”
Nobody on the destroyer laughed.
