Independence Day
INDEPENDENCE DAY
The Americans celebrated their Independence Day. A world-famous artist had been commissioned to paint a fresco that would depict the glorious 200-year history of the USA. When the cloth was pulled off the 100 ft by 10 ft artwork an evil silence fell to the crowd. The fresco depicted a prairy, in the middle of which steamed a huge pile of dung. The scene was otherwise filled with romping Indians.
In the name of US democracy the artist was allowed three minutes to explain himself.
"Surely you all remember General Custer's last words", the artist began: "Holy shit! Fucking Indians all over!"
