LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE
Nick Glegg was seated next to a little girl on an airplane when he turned to her and said, 'Let's talk.
I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a
conversation with your fellow passenger.'
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it
slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would youlike to talk about?'
'Oh, I don't know,' said Mr Glegg
'How about global warming or The budget Deficit', as he smiles smugly.
OK,' she said. 'Those could be interesting topics.
But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes
little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a
horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose
that is?'
The Deputy Prime Minister, visibly surprised by the little girl's
intelligence, thinks about it and says, 'Hmmm, I have no idea.'
To which the little girl replies,
'Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming or The Budget Deficit when you don't know shit?
